Vieux Fort → Castries: key facts

A private transfer from Vieux Fort Airport (UVF) to Castries costs €110 per car for 1–3 passengers and €160 per van for 4–8. It is a fixed price for the whole vehicle, the same amount you pay when you book. The road distance is 54 km via Castries - Vieux Fort Highway; the drive takes about 1h 5min with clear roads, so plan on 65–80 min at busy times.

Where the driver waits: The driver waits at the arrivals exit of the Hewanorra terminal, after immigration, baggage reclaim and customs, holding a sign with your name. We track your flight and the first 60 minutes after landing are free; the driver helps with your luggage.

Castries, the capital and main port of Saint Lucia, lies at the opposite end of the island from Hewanorra, about 54 km away. The route follows the Castries - Vieux Fort Highway up the windward east coast through Micoud and Dennery, then climbs over the Barre de l'Isle ridge in the rainforest before dropping down to the capital via Bagatelle and Marchand. The road is paved but narrow and winding in the hills, so the drive usually takes a little over an hour.

The centre of Castries is a compact grid of streets around Derek Walcott Square, with the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception on one side and the Castries Central Market on Jeremie Street a few blocks away by the harbour. Cruise ships berth at Pointe Seraphine and La Place Carenage on either side of the harbour. Hotels on Vigie and Morne Fortune overlook the town, and George Charles Airport and Vigie Beach are only a few minutes north of the centre. Streets downtown are busy on weekday mornings and on cruise-ship days.

Public transport: The airport operator (SLASPA) does not publish a public bus service from the Hewanorra terminal to Castries.
