About This Tour

Castries Craft Market & Shopping Excursion, St Lucia

Bring home a piece of St Lucia on a relaxed half-day shopping trip through the capital and the north of the island. This excursion is perfect for souvenir hunting, duty-free bargains and browsing genuine local craftsmanship — with a driver to carry your bags and take you between the best spots so you can shop at your own pace.

Start at the lively Castries Central Market and adjacent Craft Market, where local vendors sell handmade baskets, wood carvings, tie-dye and batik clothing, spices, hot sauces and locally made rum and liqueurs. Then head to the waterfront duty-free centres — Pointe Seraphine and La Place Carenage — for jewellery, watches, perfume and liquor at tax-free prices. If you're after brand-name shopping and air-conditioned comfort, we can also stop at the island's malls, including Baywalk Mall in Rodney Bay, JQ Mall and Gablewoods.
