Health in St. Lucia

Health

Tap water is perfectly safe to drink throughout the island, but you should be sure that fruit is peeled or washed thoroughly before eating it. Insects can be a real bother during the wet season (July-November), particularly in the rain forest; bring along repellent to ward off mosquitoes and sand flies.
