Welcome!

We thought it was time for St. Lucians and other stakeholders to come, work and move forward together. But in order to do that, we all need to know what is actually happening in St. Lucia. So we are here to provide a service to the St. Lucia community, by providing up to date, relevant and objective news and information about St. Lucia Estuary, South Africa.

If anything happens in St. Lucia , many stories start to go around. We hope, through professional journalism, to separate fact from fiction, to bring you the objective truth without choosing sides. That is what journalism is all about. If you've heard anything and want to know what really happened, send us an email (TamlynHead@gmail.com) and we'll investigate what's actually going on, and provide our findings in an objective manner on this site. Make sure you subscribe to this blog by leaving your email address on the right of this page, so whenever a new news item is published, you get to know about it.

As an additional service, we offer a business directory, an agenda of activities organised in St. Lucia, as well as an up to date listing of employment and housing opportunities.

In other words, if you wanna know what's really happening in St. Lucia, this is the place to look at!

Dorp van die Jaar / Town of the Year 2012

After winning the provincial round of this competition earlier in the year, St Lucia once again requires your vote in order to win the final round of Dorp van die Jaar / Town of the Year 2012.


Voting lines opened on the 29th of July and will close on the 6th of August.  SMS the word LUCIA to 33157 if you love St Lucia enough for our town to win.  Voters need not live in the town for which they vote and votes are not limited to one per person.

St Lucia is up against Prince Albert, Sabie, Hoedspruit, Kathu, Lady Grey, Clarens and Walvis Bay in this, the final round of the competition.  This is the second time that St Lucia has made it to the finals of this competition, however, in 2010, after being crowned KZN's Town of the Year, St Lucia failed to clinch the title of South African Town of the Year.  Let's change that this year by casting as many votes as possible and by recruiting as many friends and family members as possible to cast their votes too.

St Lucians know that our unique town is the best in South Africa, so let's make sure the rest of the country realises it too!
