Private Half Day Charter: St Lucia Boat Tour to Soufriere

We absolutely loved this experience. Captain Vibes and his crew member were excellent hosts and attended to our every need. Really lovely guys. We enjoyed the morning so much and were delighted to get in some excellent snorkelling as well. We had done a land trip the day before so it was really special to view this beautiful island from the sea. Highly recommended!

Thank you for a fantastic day. We all agreed that this was our favorite day in St Lucia. I highly recommend booking a full day (especially if you want to do any of the land options) so you can snorkel as long as you like and take time over lunch. It was easy to meet the crew and find the boat at Rodney Bay and off we went. Both Titus and Jeremiah were excellent. We gently cruised along the coast, there was no rush, we snorkeled at multiple places, had a great lunch and headed back in the rain (but even that didn't dampen our mood). They make the best rum punch, are amusing and an absolute pleasure to sail with. The fact that the charter is just for your group, the snorkeling, the scenery (it was wonderful to see the UNESCO World Heritage Pitons from the ocean), and the laid-back vibe made this a wonderful day, and we wouldn't hesitate to book with them again when we return to this fabulous island.

A great day on the Israel King III for my wife and me with Titus and Cummie. We were on a HAL cruise and they picked us up and dropped us off at a dock right in the immediate area where our ship was docked, just a very short walk through the cruise port shops and restaurants area. We cruised along the coast from the cruise port south to the Pitons area, stopping along the way to see interesting and beautiful things. We wanted to snorkel so we stopped at three different locations, including the amazing Anse Chastenette, where we honeymooned in 1988. They had cold drinks (beer and water) and rum punch. We could have purchased a local lunch but we opted to wait for food on our ship. Titus and Cummie got some lunch and it looked yummy. After the last spot in the water we sped back up the coast, a really fun ride. We timed our stops such that we avoided the big boat crowds. It was a great experience and Titus and Cummie were very personable and took great care of us, we very much enjoyed getting to know them. They are very proud of their island nation and they should be! Don’t be surprised by the $30 fuel surcharge. It is clearly articulated in the listing. Just add that amount to the trip cost to know your total if you are comparing prices. We felt the experience was well worth what we paid. Be sure to have some cash in hand if you want a local lunch or decide to go ashore for optional experiences that have some entry fees or a short taxi ride. We love to be in the water so we opted just to do that. Good communication as well prior to the date.

The Israel King small motor boat private tour along the West Coast was the perfect last day of our group's weeklong trip to St Lucia. The beautiful day started with pick up at Rodney Bay 9 am, very informative narration of the coastal highlights (history culture economic environmental and tourism issues) as we passed communities and resorts along the way, then terrific no-rush "island time" snorkeling at Anse Chastenet and Sugar Beach. Spectacular views the whole way including at the steep coastal base of the majestic Pitons. (Way way better than driving!) Our amazing and FUN guides Jeremiah and Captain Bzyz took us to some beautiful secret spots that could only be done on a small boat with their local knowledge. They fully tailored the itinerary to our requests, provided snorkels, fins, and noodles, brought to us on board a delicious local tuna lunch, were quick to scoop us out of the water, and provided plenty of water, beer, and their special (too good) rum punch. We made tour arrangements through Karen a few days in advance - she was very responsive and sent clear information. Contrary to what we first thought, the small motor boat "taxi" proved to be perfect - pretty smooth ride, adequate shade cover, and a more local vibe. We had already done a fancier private catamaran tour along the coast with another company earlier in the week (at a higher price) and - hands down - the Israel King tour was far superior - crew and tour - they were The Best - highly recommend!

Excellent communication with vendor from beginning to end. I can't say enough good things about our two special guides "Vibes" and Jeremiah for this excursion from our cruise ship. I am disabled with little use of my legs and these two gentle literally lifted me on/off and into boat to snorkel with my propel device in a wonderful location. They offered to go to more places but it was a heavy stormy day and we decided to head back after a few sightseeing stops including the beautiful Pitons. I was impressed they were willing to "rough it", yet They were cheerful, informative and a lot of fun. We REALLY like these guys and you will too! Book with confidence and just go with the flow. We would do it again in a heartbeat, Their kindness will be remembered in addition to a wonderful experience with nice coral and creatures despite a stormy day. Thanks guys

Picked up directly at the cruise port, amongst crowds boarding ferries and catamarans, with just two of us in our own private speed boat! Captain "Vibes" and Jerimiah were great fun and made our day special with their local knowledge. Sugar beach, nestled at the foot of the Pitons was amazing, full of marine life. Avoid the crowded catamaran tours - book your own private experience.

My family and I visited in January, and it was truly one of the best experiences we’ve ever had! The boat crew was the absolute highlight! They were fun, charismatic, and went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and having a great time. We couldn’t be more grateful! They took us to some stunning spots around the island, and we even stopped at a fantastic local restaurant on the way back. Everything about the trip was just perfect. Even our 1 year-old had the best time! If you’re thinking about booking this experience for your family or friends, don’t hesitate. It’s 100% worth it. Easily a 10 out of 10!

Wow!!! I travel a lot and spend a lot of time on the water. This was one of the most pleasurable and tailored tours I have taken. Seeing St Lucia by water is definitely the way to go. Titus was an exceptional guide. With terrific local knowledge he filled us in on the geography of the island and because we were very keen to snorkel, he took us to all the best spots!! The views of the Pitons were amazing and they took incredible photos for us at all the best spots. And also wow, the free-flowing rum punch!!

This was one of the BEST days I’ve had in years thanks to Jermaine and Jerome and their experience on the water! I chose this company because they had a COVER on their boat and they offer PRIVATE BOAT RIDES, and they were FLEXIBLE with my start time. They provided plenty of drinks ( Rum Punch was on point )! The fellas took me to a bomb restaurant in Marigot Bay and then to some spots where the locals hang out on the water. Snorkeling was an option but I decided against it. This experience was absolutely amazing !
