Things to do in St Lucia - I get motion sickness.

We love hikes but are not water people. I get motion sickness. What would people recommend we do in St Lucia.

I would suggest you head over to Pigeon Island. It is a national park with historic ruins, 2 hikes(one more difficult than the other) with amazing views out to Martinique and Rodney Bay, 2 restaurants, a lovely small beach if you want to stick your feet in, a small museum with some history of the island - all in all it is a great day! It's about 30 minutes north from the port - about a $35US one way cab ride for up to 4 people, extra people will cost extra. Taxi's are readily available at the port to take you and also at PI for the return (or your driver will wait) There is a $5US entrance fee to the park.

alternatively - if you wanted to splash out - take the helicopter tour of the island! It's 30 minutes for the whole island tour, starts right near the cruise port - great way to see the sights! St. Lucia Helicopters is the company - contact them directly for the best price.

Otherwise - it is a mountainous island with small narrow twisty roads - not ideal for motion sickness. Most people seem to manage it with dramamine or gravol, etc. But - if your's is bad, then the roads and sea tours are probably not for you.

Enjoy!

There is "ziplining" at Treetops Adventure or also North close to Rodney Bay but probably will take you 40 min drive w winding roads - if medicine helps and you are looking forward to spending some time in the Rain Forest : great way to be out there...just returned today from St lucia ziplining, sailing to Pitons, visiting Rodney Bay (go to Jambe de Bois f lunch) and renting a catamaran. Since we stayed close to the island going from beach to beach it was a very smooth ride. Webooked with the MOORINGS in Marigot Bay - ask for CAPTAIN SAM, he's awesome and will cater to your needs
