carefree lady Posted November 27, 2017 #1 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Is there a water taxi from the port to the town? I thought there was one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaudiaB Posted November 27, 2017 #2 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Hmmm. Been there a few times but don't remember a water taxi. There is one in St. Maarten but it's noisy and crowded and we always just walk the 15 minutes on the sidewalk past the port shops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Honolulu Blue Posted November 27, 2017 #3 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Is there a water taxi from the port to the town? I thought there was one. There's a water taxi between cruise ship terminals - Seraphine and Carenage. La Place Carenage is in the center of town, while Pointe Seraphine is a bit away from it. Your cruise ship could dock at either location, so depending on where you need to go, you may or may not need to use the water taxi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zanderblue Posted November 27, 2017 #7 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Just returned today from cruise on Reflection. St Lucia was a bit of a joke to be honest. Port Serphine closed for major dock refurbishment, which meant Carenage was way overcrowded with pax from Reflection and Adventure of the seas, which was fortunate to be docked at Carenage. Tendering operations from Reflection were a bit of a shambles given limited pier space. Not impressed at all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerelmx Posted November 27, 2017 #8 Share Posted November 27, 2017 This is good info, thanks. We'll be going to St. Lucia for the first time in a few weeks. Eclipse current sailing make a last minute change St Lucia to Martinique because of dock repairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted November 28, 2017 #9 Share Posted November 28, 2017 The town is pretty much right there depending on where you dock. Be careful walking around there. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baatman Posted November 28, 2017 #11 Share Posted November 28, 2017 I seem to remember a water taxi that goes to the beach between the Pitons. But that was several years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dromMOM Posted December 1, 2017 #12 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Check out the Captain when we visited St Lucia last week. It appears the was first visit and they plan on building a new pier. We loved this Island and the ships tour was great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sptrout Posted December 1, 2017 #13 Share Posted December 1, 2017 We are on the Silhouette and now docked in St. Lucia. The Queen Mary is anchored offshore and tendering people in to the pier behind us. The presence of the Queen Mary may be the reason that the Eclipse had to change its plans yesterday. Three large ships would likely overload shore capabilites here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davekathy Posted December 1, 2017 #14 Share Posted December 1, 2017 All our St. Lucia stops have docked at Pointe Seraphine. Our last time in St. Lucia was 13 April 2017. Yes there is a water taxi that will take you from Pointe Saraphine across the harbor over to Place Carenage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
