1.St Lucia Full-Day Catamaran Sightseeing Cruise With Snorkeling

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 592 reviews · from $145Our pick

Review of St Lucia’s full-day catamaran cruise, with Piton views, waterfall, volcano baths, Creole lunch, snorkeling, and open-bar drinks.

“Not a very good tour. Mudd bath was very crowded and is really a mud bucket and a dip in black hot baths. No real showers to washoff after. The waterfall was the highlight and a nice cool down. The operator only allowed 30 minutes for snorkeling. The music on the sail was more for the staff than the guests. If the guests aren't dancing you need a new DJ. The restaurant food was fine but venue was very crowded.”

“We were promptly met by Tyler, as soon as we exited the port. He had a sign in his hand and a smile on his face welcoming us to St. Lucia. We just walked around the block with him and hopped onto our boat with Alvin as the captain for the day. Tyler was extremely knowledgeable about St. Lucia and Alvin was an expert at navigating us around the island. They took us snorkeling and two different spots. Incredible. The last time I saw such an abundance of different fish was in the red sea. They were able to give us a beach break on one of the most beautiful…”
