jackdiamond Posted December 20, 2009 #1 Share Posted December 20, 2009 I would greatly appreciate the impressions of anyone who has visited this beach, particularly whether it may be accessed by taxi. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainron Posted December 20, 2009 #2 Share Posted December 20, 2009 Yes, it can be accessed by taxi, and is located about a 15minute+ drive (depending on the taxi driver) from Castries where your ship docks. The beach is nice and shallow, water is warm and there is a bar at the hotel on the north side of the bay where you can purchase food and refreshments. Castries is no joy to roam in but St Lucia is a truly beautiful port of call when you get out of town and so enjoy your time there. Ciao for now!!!

imsulin Posted December 20, 2009 #6 Share Posted December 20, 2009 We've always gone to Marigot BAY - don't think it's the same place! Long taxi ride, little Huckleberry Finn - type ferry across a pond, small beach with a lot of seaweed, great hotel, restaurant, and bar! Once on a "regular" cruise (Celebrity), and four times by dinghy from a schooner. Close to the Pitons. St. Lucia isn't known for its beaches. The Jalousie Hilton resort (so I was told when I booked clients there) imported tons of sand sand to make the beach "useable". St. Lucia is full of scenery and history. Hope you enjoy it!

nannie70 Posted December 28, 2009 #7 Share Posted December 28, 2009 How close is Marigot beach from the port. Is it the place to go for several hours of sand & water? Just want to sit and relax. Thanks What is the best way to get there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
