Walk underwater in St Lucia’s Rodney Bay with SeaTrek. Helmet tour for swimmers and non-swimmers, small groups, pickup, and clear safety guidance.
“Had a terrific day here! I am not a good swimmer and a little claustrophobic, but I was perfectly fine. Guide explained everything thoroughly and I had no issues at all. Saw puffer fish, octopus, trumpet fish, and more. Transportation provided from the cruise port. Recommended!”
Guided SNUBA in Gros Islet, St Lucia. Breathe easily underwater to 20 feet, with certified guides, pickup options, and great marine viewing.
“Great experience. More fun than snorkeling, less demanding/daunting than full scuba diving. Saw more beautiful fish than I could count. Close to Royalton Resort and transportation was included in cost.”

Half-day certified scuba tour in St. Lucia with small groups, two reef or wreck sites, lunch, and pickup from Marigot Bay.

Beginner scuba sessions in St Lucia’s marine reserves at Anse Cochon or Soufriere Beach, with gear, lunch, and north-to-west pickup.
“If you are going to snorkel you need to book with Viator. Not only was the kit great quality the local knowledge was really interesting. Our guide is really respectful of the natural world and everything that is done is done with care. We felt very safe as beginners and would 100% recommend. The fish…”

Pilot a speedboat along St Lucia’s west coast, snorkel a protected reef with a sea scooter, then cruise by the Pitons and Marigot Bay.
“it started well but then the outboard on the 'speedboat' (it's actually a RIB) kept stalling whilst out to sea. The powered snorkelling was hopeless because they kept breaking down. A great trip for scenery and we got back safely but the equipment is quite obviously poorly maintained and when you are going offshore it's…”
Drive a 17-foot speedboat from Rodney Bay, cruise Marigot Bay, then snorkel with clear-water sightings in about 2 hours.
“Driving the boat myself. I’ve never driven a boat before and it was a lot of fun. The island is beautiful and full of rich history and the guides were very knowledgeable. The water was the perfect temperature and even though I came at the tail-end of rainy season, I got to see fish swim…”
Private Wild Dreams charter in St. Lucia with snorkel twice, Soufriere sights, Pitons views, and optional mud baths and waterfall stops.

Both locations had lots of fish, great coral and the swimming was very easy. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to see…”
Private sunset cruise from Rodney Bay Marina with Marigot Bay views, optional snorkeling by the Cinderella shoe, plus rum punch and beer.
“This was hands down the best experience of our trip - the lovely duo running it were so kind and knowledgeable! We got to see sides of the island we wouldn't have seen otherwise. We learned a lot, but also got to kick back with a drink aRead more”
