Carnival Sailing’s catamarans come out of Ganter’s Bay in the north-west and head down the west coast, taking in views of the fishing villages of Anse La Raye and Canaries before heading to Soufrière.

Most waterbound tours of Saint Lucia will take you around the coast. DFH Kayaking explores the interior waterways, including the mangroves that are vital to the island's ecology. You can hit the Roseau River, Anse Cochon, and Marigot Bay, and hop out of the boat whenever you feel like it, for snorkelling and swimming.
