Once you arrive to St. Lucia, gather your luggage, exit customs, get ready to experience your first speedboat excursion to your resort. Once past customs you will be greeted by a By Sea Transfers and Tours concierge to escort you to our transfer vehicle and driven 2 minutes to By Sea welcome reception area to relax a few minutes while other guest arrive. This will be your opportunity to change into comfortable boat ride clothing. You could have sun exposure so consider putting on sunscreen and possible light long sleeve shirt. Also consider you are visiting a tropical island and can have sudden rain showers during your visit so consider bringing light rain gear for your trip.
Once all guests arrive everyone will be driven less than 5 minutes to the boat dock to board By Sea speedboat, along with your luggage. All arriving guests will receive a souvenir sip cup then offered a beverage with unlimited refills during the ride to your resort. During your excursion By Sea concierge becomes your tour guide offering commentary about important St Lucia landmarks and famous locations. Once we arrive at your resort dock you will be greeted by hotel staff to help with luggage and check-in. If your resort does not have a boat dock, you will be taken to the closest marina and driven the balance of your trip.
For return service to the airport from your resort make sure to check By Sea airport departure schedule to assure service is available and the time By Sea will pick you up and the designated location based on the resort you are staying.
Avoid the long vehicle transfer ride and get ready to experience your first By Sea excursion leading to memories that will last a lifetime!
When getting off the plane imagine experiencing your first excursion “By Sea” rather than taking ground transfers along single lane pothole bumpy and winding roads! With “By Sea” you are transported from local boat dock on “By Sea” luxury speedboat to your resort dock to include your luggage. The service includes a beautiful VIP tour along the coastline and stop at Pitons for pictures. Enjoy premium alcohol and each adult guest is given nice souvenir wine cup.
Early flights to St Lucia, from the USA, arrive between 1:50 PM and 3:30 PM with other global destinations arriving later. Currently “By Sea” offers service from the airport to your resort with departure time no later than 3:45 PM from the boat dock where the included taxi will drop off guest after picking up at the airport curb side outside customs. Make sure to add fast-track to assure you get through the possible long custom lines.
“By Sea” will arrange time to pick up guest(s) as your resort boat dock. If no boat dock, guest(s) will arrange with their resort for one-way taxi from resort to the assigned boat dock where “By Sea” luxury speedboat will be waiting. The St. Lucia airport is very small and upon arrival the customs lines can be long and take over 45-minutes to 90-minutes based on flight departure time. Taking ground transfers can be delayed resulting in missing your flight so consider adding return service.
Most flights arriving to St. Lucia arrive during a close time span resulting in hundreds of airline passengers headed to the first stop - customs entry. The customs entry line can be as long as 30 minutes to 120 minutes resulting in delays for your planned transfer. With “Fast Track” you can avoid the lines and be treated like a VIP dignitary. When you upgrade to Fast Track you will enter customs and see your name on a welcome whiteboard greeted by “Fast Track” concierge. All guests hand over their passport and entry documents to “Fast Track” concierge who will escort all guests past the lines right to the front of customs entry. After gathering luggage “Fast Track” concierge will escort everyone through the process out to curbside where guests are greeted by “By Sea” concierge.
“Most flights departing from St. Lucia depart during a narrow period resulting in hundreds of passengers waiting in the airport gate area. The airport is small with limited plastic seating downstairs. Upstairs are limited seats and a few tables to wait for your departure flight, all with no internet access. Food and beverage selections are limited to only small stores and bar type food on second floor. If you arrive to the airport two-three hours in advance, as they strongly advise, why not wait in comfort in the Destiny lounge? This new lounge offers snacks, drinks, wi-fi, couches and cushion chairs. Access is limited by capacity to ensure the lounge is not overcrowded. “By Sea” passes our contracted cost to you with no profit to help save!
We offer group and private tours based on specific days. Private tours can be requested for any day of the week based on completing quote request form.
