Rare Buffettfan 225 Posted May 2, 2010 #2 Share Posted May 2, 2010 Are there any beaches in St Lucia where yoi can just get a cab and hang out on your own without doing a tour? many years ago we asked taxi driver and if I recall info he said something about it being old navy base area that was now a hotel and beach. Looking back at my photos I think it was Rex Beach & resort (we just got driven there and basically cut through lobby-the concierge called and got a taxi back) and then it is public beach -Reduit Beach. We are planning that again this cruise. No info on taxi rate yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aplmac Posted May 4, 2010 #3 Share Posted May 4, 2010 Think you'll find that, by law, all/most beaches on the islands are free and public. Only way around that legally is to buy up all the landside property completely surrounding the bay/beach so no public access from the land side can be made ..but even then, if a person decides to use that beach via a seaward approach, using a boat, the beach is his to use (in Barbados the technicality is "up to the hi-water mark") .

denred4 Posted May 6, 2010 #4 Share Posted May 6, 2010 found this on a St. Lucia site Finding a Taxi in St Lucia is easy. Please decide the fare with the driver before the trip starts to avoid further problems. You may even negotiate a Full Island Tour is the price is right. We will try this, because with 6 of us traveling, the tours are way too costly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
