Saint Lucia Citizenship by Investment
St. Lucia is located in the eastern Caribbean Sea, northwest of Barbados and south of Martinique. An island mostly covered in rainforest, it is famous for its magical beaches. St. Lucia is a member of the Commonwealth and CARICOM and has excellent air connections to Europe and North America.
