The Top 5 Snorkeling Spots in St. Lucia

St. Lucia

July 1, 2022

The azure waters and rich sea life of the Caribbean are the perfect setting for hours of snorkeling. In St. Lucia, this water activity does not disappoint. Here are the top five snorkeling sites off the island.

Anse Chastanet Beach

Anse Chastanet Beach is one of the best places in St. Lucia to explore the underwater world. It offers easy access to a coral reef, which is marked with buoys, making it easy to find and safe for snorkelers since boats are prohibited from entering the roped-off area. Snorkelers at Anse Chastanet can view squid, corals, sponges, moray eels, and reef fish, including sergeant majors, trumpetfish, French angelfish, and parrotfish.

Pigeon Island National Park

This national park is a fantastic stop for snorkelers who also want to do some hiking and learn about St. Lucian history. The best snorkeling starts about 15-20 feet from the beaches. Marine life in the area includes starfish, barracudas, eagle rays, moray eels, and lobsters.

Anse des Pitons – Coral Gardens

Set at the base of the iconic Gros Piton, Coral Gardens is an excellent dive site. The coral reef is packed with sea whips, gorgonians, feather duster worms, and numerous reef fish. The site is accessible by boat.

Anse des Pitons – Sugar Beach

Also set at Anse des Pitons is one of the best spots for snorkeling – Sugar Beach (also known as Jalousie Beach). It is located on the northern side of the bay beneath Petit Piton and is accessed through the protected marine reserve, which is marked off with ropes and buoys. If you’re not staying at the Sugar Beach Resort, you can take a boat tour or water taxi or purchase a day pass to access the beach by land.

Marigot Bay

Marigot Bay has made its appearance in several Hollywood films. The best snorkeling is off Marigot Beach on the north side. The sheltered cove has shallow waters that are suitable for those new to snorkeling and children. Although there are better snorkeling sites on the island, it is perfect for less-experienced snorkelers. Here you’ll see coral formations, seahorses, and various tropical fish.
