Best Way To Island Hop From St Lucia

Many visitors Island hop from St Lucia to other neighboring Caribbean island all the time because they want to explore other Caribbean countries.

It's like killing two birds with one stone.

If you are planning to go Island hoping in the Caribbean, St Lucia is the most perfect Caribbean Island for that. Why? St Lucia is located in the center of the Caribbean Chain so whether you choose to travel north or south, you are well positioned here.

You may choose to island hop three ways, by airplane, by cruise or by boat. I have found that majority of people rather travel by boat or cruise because they are the most cost effective way to Island hop, but that may not be you.

Island hop from St Lucia by airplane to any other Caribbean Island means you will be traveling from the George F.L Charles airport found at Vigie in Castries, the smaller of the two airports found in St Lucia. This is the airport that the smaller aircraft operate on.

Island hoping is made easy if you choose to travel by boat. Every week L'express Des Iles, one of the largest boat Charters in the Caribbean, travels from St Lucia to Guadeloupe, Dominica and Martinique.

Up to date there are no boat charters from St Lucia to any other Caribbean destination, so if you plan to Island hop to other Caribbean Islands, you may have to do so by airplane or cruise.

Speaking of Cruise, I believe that the best way to Island hop in the Caribbean is by Cruise. Why? A Caribbean cruise vacation will take you to the various islands in the Caribbean for one special package price.

While a cruise vacation in the Caribbean may not allow you to really explore the Islands, it will let you know which Caribbean island you would like to spend your next vacation on, because you got a foretaste of what the island was all about and I believe that is What Island hoping is all about.

But if you are looking to island hop from St Lucia to one or two Caribbean Island, then I would recommend you do so by boat because you would be able to choose how long you spend in the country and also what activities you do there.
