  • 5Absolute must for a day trip to Soufriere! The private boat is the way to go!

    Everything went smooth. Booking was easy and they got right back to us with clear meeting instructions. The trip went seamless as we were able to customize the entire day and they brought us where we wanted to go and took care of everything. With everything we did, we were able to stay as long or and short as we wanted so everything felt perfect.

  • 5Fantastic family day trip!

    This was a fantastic all-day charter. The crew was the absolute best. Lisa was extremely attentive and kept my Pitons coming! As a sailor, Captain Jeremy was welcoming and accommodating letting me help handle the lines and talking to me about the St. Lucia sailing experience. Deck hand, Mark was extremely helpful throughout the entire experience! Now let’s talk about Mary…… oh my gods, top tier chef for the trip!!! The food was amazing and she was an absolute delight with conversation. 10/10 book this if you have any family outing here! Completely worth the money! Thank you crew for this amazing experience!!

    This excursion was awesome! Jean Pierre was a great photographer and Titus was a great boat driver. Both had alot of knowledge about the island and we really enjoyed ourselves. We had a great lunch and snorkeling experience. I would definitely reccomend this tour and we can’t wait to come back with the whole family!

  • 5Best day ever !!!

    We had an absolutely AMAZING experience with Israel King yesterday! From start to finish, it was incredible!!! The boat was clean and fully equipped, the team was so friendly, caring, responsible, and genuinely went above and beyond to make sure we were happy and having the best possible time. They took us to some of the BEST snorkeling spots on the island, and every stop was better than the last! You could really tell that they cared about giving us an unforgettable experience, not just taking us on a standard tour. We felt safe, looked after, and truly enjoyed every single moment. The team’s energy and kindness made the whole day even more special. ❤️ We HIGHLY recommend Israel King to anyone visiting the island! You will not regret it. And without a doubt, we will be going with them again the next time we’re here! Thank you for an unforgettable day! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐️

About Castries

Castries is St Lucia's capital and main port, a harbour town with a colourful market, a hilltop fort, a cathedral square and beaches along the coast.

Castries lies on the north-west coast of St Lucia around a deep, sheltered harbour backed by green hills. The island changed hands between the French and the British some fourteen times before independence in 1979. Derek Walcott Square, named for the island's Nobel prize-winning poet, who was born in the town, is the heart of the centre, with the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception on one side and a huge old saman tree in the square.
