    Brilliant dive centre - really professional setup

    13 Excellent Dives - St Lucia is tremeandously better for diving than most know.

    Frogfish, seahorses, and thousands of fish on each dive. I love floating along in the light current, barely moving, and being picked up at the end. When's the last time you saw a pair of mating frogfish? Try Pinnacles. Seahorses - several dives including shipwreck...More

    Between an hour and 15 minutes to an hour and a half. Although getting around (driving) is fairly easy on St Lucia, the roads can be curvy and the actual road to Anse Chastnet is rough and only wide enough for one car so it... More

    Soufriere the town itself?? (16 Replies)
    How is the town? we just talked to some fellow travelers and they said it is extremely poor and when driving through you definitely want your windows rolled up. We have to stay at a resort near ladera for a week and are dissapointed because we are a little leary now to even go buy groceries and go to local restaurants etc. Where do you get groceries in this town? Also does anyone know where Scuba St. Lucia is located? I just hope we feel safe there.

    yes, logain1080, it is a poor town, but then, this is a poor island, as you will see as you get out more and more. Poor does not equal unsafe, however. I am a white female and regularly drive through Soufriere and Vieux Fort and other villages with my windows down and hair blowing free. You can buy groceries at several small grocery stores in soufriere town proper, it may not have the selection of the place in Marigot Bay - different clientele. You'll still find your booze and all the...More

    I just booked a 6 night stay in July in Frangapani. I have had great tips about mosquito control, but can anyone tell me if screens have been installed and if there is still construction at the resort? We'll be diving with Scuba St. Lucia and doing a day trip with congoman. Any other suggestions?
