Minibus

Minibus is the most popular mode of transport in St Lucia. These buses run up to varied times depending on the route you’re taking. Buses to Gros Islet, for example, run until around 10.00pm (longer on Friday nights when the weekly “jump-up” takes place at Gros Islet). However, there is no scheduled bus timetable.

Helicopter transfers

Helicopter transfers are available from Hewanorra to Castries.

Water Taxi

Water taxi is a popular way to explore the coasts of St Lucia – popular water taxi destinations include Rodney Bay, Soufriere and Anse Chastenet.

Our front desk team will be happy to help you organise your taxi, helicopter or other transport during your stay in Marigot Bay.
