A Personal Speedboat Adventure through St. Lucia’s Best Sights
For those seeking a flexible, intimate way to explore the stunning coast and natural wonders of St. Lucia, this private all-inclusive speedboat tour offers a fantastic option. Priced at $250 per person and lasting roughly 4 to 6 hours, this trip takes you from the bustling port or your accommodation directly to the island’s top sights — all aboard your own speedboat with a guide.
What we particularly love about this experience is how it combines several iconic stops — Sulphur Springs, Toraille Waterfall, Jalousie Beach, and Marigot Bay — into one seamless day. Plus, the inclusion of a local guide, lunch, beverages, and entrance fees makes it a hassle-free adventure. And if you’re worried about sharing the boat with strangers — don’t be. This is a completely private tour, tailored to your group’s pace and interests.
One point to keep in mind: there’s a fuel surcharge of $40, which isn’t included in the initial price. If you’re on a tight budget, this adds to your total but considering the personalized service and all-inclusive nature, it’s a reasonable extra.
This tour is perfect for travelers who value flexibility, authenticity, and personalized service. Families, couples, or small groups looking for a memorable day with a local touch will find this a great fit. It’s especially suited to those who enjoy water-based adventures, sightseeing with minimal crowds, and tasting local cuisine in a relaxed setting.

Starting Point and Transportation
Your adventure begins either at the main port or your accommodation, with a convenient pickup service. For those staying in or near Soufriere, a complimentary taxi will whisk you to the dock — a small detail that adds a lot of ease, especially after a morning of travel. The boat itself can be chosen to fit your group size, ensuring comfort whether you’re a couple or a small family.
The Itinerary: What to Expect
The day is thoughtfully divided among several stops, each offering a different perspective on St. Lucia’s natural beauty.
Sulphur Springs is the first stop, just five minutes from the dock. Here, you’ll have access to therapeutic mud baths and hot water pools. This spot is often highlighted for its health benefits and unique photo opportunities. The included admission fee means you won’t need to worry about additional costs, and the complimentary transfer makes it a smooth start.
Next, you’ll visit Toraille Waterfall, about ten minutes away. Here, you can enjoy a refreshing dip under a cold waterfall, which many reviews note as a relaxing highlight. Some travelers mention even having the chance for a massage by nature’s own hands, making it a soothing contrast to the earlier mud bath.
Afterward, the focus shifts to Jalousie Beach, where you can relax on pristine white sands or snorkel with tropical fish. This stop usually lasts about an hour, giving you time to unwind, take photos, or swim. The inclusion of free admission makes this a highlight that doesn’t eat into your budget.
The final stop is Marigot Bay, famous for its movies and jaw-dropping scenery. You can simply marvel at the view or explore a bit. Most travelers agree this is a perfect way to round out your day, with history and natural beauty woven together.
Food and Drinks: The Kitchen on the Water
A major perk of this tour is the included lunch — a local meal that travelers rave about. Along with beer and soda, the lunch provides a taste of the island’s flavors. Many reviews mention how delicious and satisfying the meal was, making it more than just a quick snack.
Guides and Service
The guides, like Tyler, Kevin, and Captain Alvin, receive high praise for their knowledge, friendliness, and professionalism. Their local insights turn this from a simple boat ride into a rich, authentic experience. They also handle logistics smoothly, from transfers to snorkelling fees, so you can focus on enjoying yourself.

Also, since this is a private experience, flexibility in timing is possible, but weather can impact plans — as with any outdoor activity, clear skies help ensure a smooth day.
