I would first recommend that you get a St Lucia map to familiarize yourself with the districts and different parts of St Lucia. You may find on at an online book store or purchase on at a book store in St Lucia.
I have found that several of the hotels here have very good island maps, so you may be lucky enough to get one for free, but I would not depend on that.
There are four ways to get around St Lucia, they are; by car rental, taxi, mini bus and helicopter.
If you plan to rent your own vehicle then getting a St Lucian map is a must. The roads down here are winy and have several junctions so a map would be a great asset in helping you to eliminate the possibilities of going to the wrong place.
If you are coming to St Lucia for the first time, I recommend using a taxi instead because the taxi drivers here are quite knowledgeable and know their way around the Island. It might also be a good idea to get one because they would help you find places in St Lucia that you may not find on your own.
Traveling by mini bus is by far the cheapest way to travel around St Lucia but it lacks the convenience that the other methods of transportation provide.
A helicopter shuttle service may be on your agenda but you can only travel from airport to airport and Soufriere. That might come in handy if you want and aerial view of St Lucia or if you do not want to travel by car or bus. But I would recommend that you make your reservations before hand.
