Saint Lucia is a hiker's daydream and a workaholic's relaxing getaway. There are cheap Caribbean flights from Miami, Florida, which are comparable in price to domestic flights across the country to California.

Known for its romantic private beaches, vibrant rainforest, and turquoise waters surrounding luxurious resorts, Saint Lucia is the perfect escape for your summer bucket list.

We did a deep dive to find the best flights in the upcoming months, and they are definitely a round-trip steal!

According to Google's flight tracker, starting on May 19, you can go from Miami to Saint Lucia for a 7-day vacation priced at $422 on JetBlue, and return with American Airlines. In comparison, a trip from San Diego would be $557 with Frontier on similar dates.

About a month later, in June, Saint Lucia is even cheaper! You can head to the breathtaking Caribbean for only $394 on American Airlines both ways. San Diego teeters around a similar price on Allegiant or Frontier there and back.

The next lowest price would be for Saint Lucia on August 23 for a full week, at $384 for an American Airlines round-trip. However, in San Diego, you can get a round-trip as low as $238 for the same time with Delta.

When international travel has views that you only see in your dreams, it's almost impossible to want to come home. Saint Lucia has volcanoes, waterfalls, and even black sand beaches that are even more stunning during sunrises and sunsets.

You can see the island by snorkeling, heading out to sea on a boat, or even taking an ATV tour. There's also no shortage of local eats to make your mouth water.

The cheapest times to fly, according to a study from Expedia, are in the summer months, so it's no wonder these prices are so affordable.

However, it was specific to U.S. cities, so when we see international travel this good, we know we have to start packing our bags.

Editor’s note: These prices are confirmed at the time of publishing, but they can change at any time.
