The Best Boat Tours in Saint Lucia

Great day out on the water. Captain Denver is very knowledgeable of the area. We saw and did everything we set out to do for the day! It was an awesome time out on the water. What a beautiful island to see.

Denver and his cousin were amazing! We have visited 20 islands in the Caribbean and have been on quite a few excursions, tours, snorkel trips, and the like. This was a wonderful trip. We hired Denver for roughly 6 hours to take us to several snorkel spots. He had gear on board if needed. His boat is fast, fun, and has shade. And rum punch, and water. He met us just outside the ferry port- this was much easier than we imagined as he was right there and spotted us immediately (we’re not sure how.). We initially thought that the most well known snorkel and scuba location, Anne Chastene would be too far to reach from Castries and asked him to take us to Pigeon Point. He said Pigeon Point was a bit touristic and crowded and that Anne Chastenane is actually only 30 minutes by boat from Castries so we were able to snorkel there as well as Anse Cochon. We liked Anne Cochon a bit better, although both were great. We saw a sea turtle, puffer fish as well as coral reef with many many colorful fish. Denver waited for us at the beach each time and was easy to find when we were ready for the next spot. He also discretely advised us on how to handle peddlers who offer to tow you from their kayaks, sell you conch, do flips off of cliffs, for a fee. Denver was very knowledgeable about the island, the resorts we passed, the history between French and English rule, the geology and plants. He mainly pointed out highlights and delved into specifics only if we asked. Our last stop was Marigot Bay, where he is from. We docked at La Bas- the beach only accessible by boat, and had a very local lunch cooked by his Auntie- jackfish, fried plantain with the skin on — that was really good— and the local Piton beer which we all thought was excellent. They also had a drink made with a fresh coconut I am sorry we did not try. I hope this long-winded review helps someone trying to book something in St. Lucia! I’m saving his contact so I can recommend this to anyone I meet heading to St. Lucia :)

Charter Beneteau Oceanis 440 in Saint Lucia private sailing cruise

We chartered the boat for a party of 4 for a half day trip around the west coast of the island. Organising was smooth and Alessandro was helpful in providing us the best deal for our needs. When we arrived at the marina we met our skipper Boby. He allowed us to pick our own itinerary, and gave us some great suggestions. Boby was a great skipper who had lots of insight into the various allocations we would pass, and knew the best mooring spots to allow us to swim. Would definitely recommend to anyone hesitant about booking.

Private Boat to Soufriere to visit Waterfall and Volcanic Mud Bath 31’ Boat

We had a super day on the water! Tyrese and Kevin were great hosts! There were 7 of us - some needed shade, some needed sun, and there was plenty of room to move around. We were treated to rums and beers and waters as we boated down to the Pitons, snorkeled in two great locations, and lunched at a delicious waterside restaurant. Great day!

Private charters along the west coast of Saint Lucia

Glen’s team picked us up at the cruise port and whisked us down to see the Pitons and do some snorkeling. Much better than a crowded boat of tourists! Silas and his father were gracious, helpful, and we enjoyed facts about the villages and towns we passed. I would book them again.

Full Day Boat Tour to Soufriere

Our family of 6 went out on Jerome's boat the Israel King 1 during our stay on the north shore. Both members of the crew were fun, informative, polite and accommodating to our wishes for the outing. Excellent boat driver and mate! They took us to some incredible snorkeling spots, caves, and a couple beautiful beaches. We enjoyed our excursion so much that we booked a second day on the larger boat to do some sightseeing on land. Highly recommend!
