Private Speedboat Charter — Your Boat, Your Day
A private charter gives your group the whole boat and a flexible route. Most guests run the west coast: Rodney Bay, Marigot Bay, Anse La Raye, then Soufrière for the Pitons, the drive-in volcano, and a swim stop at Sugar Beach. Your captain and crew adjust the day to your pace — more snorkeling, longer lunch, extra photo stops. It is our highest-demand product, and it books out first in cruise season.

Shared Speedboat Tour — US$160 Per Person
Not ready to charter the full boat? The ticketed speedboat tour follows a fixed Soufrière itinerary with a small group, resort pickup included. You get the same boats, the same crew, and the same coastline for a by-the-seat price. Seats are limited per departure, so confirm your date early on WhatsApp at +1 758-722-1200.
Why Book Direct Instead of the Hotel Desk?
Hotel desks and resale platforms add commission on top of the operator price, and your booking details pass through a middle layer before they reach the boat. Booking direct fixes both problems.
- Lower price. You pay the operator rate. No commission stacked on top.
- Direct contact. You message the actual crew on WhatsApp — pickup changes, weather questions, and special requests get answered by the people running your boat.
- Written confirmation. Every direct booking gets a confirmation with your pickup time, meeting point, and the cancellation terms in writing.
- Local knowledge. LucianStyle has operated from Rodney Bay for over 10 years, with 77 five-star Google reviews naming our guides and crew.
What a Boat Day on the West Coast Looks Like
The classic route runs south along the calm Caribbean side of the island. Timings flex on private charters.
- Rodney Bay departure — briefing, life jackets, and a fast, scenic run down the coast.
- Marigot Bay — a sheltered, palm-lined harbor and the island’s most photographed anchorage.
- Soufrière and the Pitons — Gros Piton and Petit Piton rise straight from the sea; this is the photo stop everyone comes for.
- Sulphur Springs mud bath — optional stop at the drive-in volcano near Soufrière.
- Snorkeling — reef stops in the Soufrière marine area, gear on board.
- Sugar Beach swim and lunch — swim between the Pitons before the ride home.

FAQs
How much does a private boat tour cost in St. Lucia?
Private speedboat charters with LucianStyle start at US$1,400 for a six-hour, full-boat day out of Rodney Bay — crew, fuel for the standard route, and snorkeling gear included. The shared ticketed tour costs US$160 per person on a fixed Soufrière itinerary. Confirm current rates when you book.
Is a speedboat or a catamaran better for seeing the Pitons?
Pick the speedboat if your time is short. It reaches Soufrière much faster than a sailing catamaran, which leaves more time to swim, snorkel, and visit the mud bath. Pick the catamaran for a slower, party-style sail. Cruise passengers on a tight port day usually choose the speedboat.
What should I bring on the boat?
A swimsuit worn under light clothes, a towel, reef-safe sunscreen, sunglasses with a strap, and a dry bag for your phone. Bring small cash for extras like the mud bath entry. Snorkel gear and life jackets are on board.
What happens if the weather turns bad?
The captain makes the call, and safety wins every time. If we cancel a departure for sea conditions, we rebook you for another day or help you switch to a land tour. The exact terms come with your written confirmation, so you know where you stand before you pay.
Can cruise passengers do a boat tour from Castries?
Yes. We collect cruise guests near the Castries berths and time the day around your ship’s all-aboard. Tell us your ship name and departure time when you book, and we build in a safe buffer for the return.
How many people fit on a private charter?
Capacity depends on the boat. Tell us your group size on WhatsApp at +1 758-722-1200 and we match you to the right vessel — couples, families, and larger groups all run regularly out of Rodney Bay.
