How much did you love your last vacation to Saint Lucia? Enough to brag about it on social media?

For the next five weeks, Canadians are being encouraged to share their favorite Saint Lucia memories and moments. And if enough travellers get in on the action, they could unlock valuable vacation deals for themselves and their fellow travellers.

“Summer in Saint Lucia is full of adventure and packed with value,” said Tracey Warner Arnold, Deputy Director of Tourism for the Saint Lucia Tourist Board. “Special savings on tours and attractions found only in Saint Lucia are the perfect complement to summer vacations for both couples and families.” 

In a nutshell, the picturesque Caribbean destination is featuring seven distinct deals, which only becomes “unlocked” when 25 or more photos are shared using the hashtag #UnlockSaintLucia.

Once the offer is unlocked, it is only available until a countdown timer runs out.

The social campaign runs for five weeks, and will feature seven deals just for Canadians travellers to Saint Lucia. The complete list of deals includes:

• A free beach-side massage for two by Touch Therapies Day Spa.

• A free tour of the drive-in volcano and soak in the iconic Sulphur Springs mud baths located in Soufrière for a family of four.

• A free tour of Tet Paul Nature Trail for a family of four.

• A free tour of Pigeon Island National Landmark for a family of four.

• A 50 per cent discount on a ziplining tour at Rainforest Adventures for a family of four.

• A free two-hour pass for a family of four to Splash Island Water Park, the Caribbean’s first open-water sports park, located in the northwest coast of the island.

• A free Segway tour by LucianStyle Development Corporation for a family of four.

And since Saint Lucia in its entirety can be driven in less than two hours, travellers can easily take advantage of every deal.

There is no purchase necessary to claim a deal. All deals must be claimed before the countdown timer expires, but they can be redeemed through September 30, 2016. All deals are available only to Canadian travellers to Saint Lucia.

Information on the current deal and the countdown timer can be found at stlucia.org/st-lucia-rocks.
