Snorkel excursion with Solomon Water Taxi
Experience was awesome, from the start the pick up was super easy and the drivers were super fun to be with. They made it an easy and fun experience. We did the half day snorkel and it lasted about 3-4 hours and included snorkeling at 3 locations as well as lunch and drinks. We were able to snorkel with sea turtles and see various species of fish.
Response from the operator: Hello and good day to you, Thank you so much for the amazing review! We’re thrilled you had an awesome experience from pickup to the last snorkel spot! Seeing sea turtles and all those fish with lunch + drinks included makes our day too. So glad our guys could make it easy and fun for you;Richard and Marlon will be delighted to read your feedback. Can’t wait to welcome you back to our beautiful island Saint Lucia with Solomon Water Taxi & Tours. All the best! Solomon.

Great experience
Overall, it was a great experience. The guide was a little short initially with directions, but it improved when another couple joined us. The snorkel sites were spectacular. The food at their family restaurant was the best on the trip. So so good!! The ride back was my favorite including stops at the bat cave and slowly passing the coastline.
Response from the operator: Dear Kevin, Thank you so much for rating our company and for choosing Solomon Water Taxi & Tours for your snorkeling experience. We’re thrilled you loved the snorkel sites and that the coastline ride back was your favorite ;the bat cave is a hidden gem and we always love slowing down so guests can take it all in. Sorry our guide was a bit short on directions at the start! We’ve passed your note to the team so everyone gets that same warm welcome from the beginning. So glad it improved and that you got to enjoy it with the other couple. And yes ;the family restaurant! We’re biased, but we think it really is the best food on the island ; thanks for calling that out. We’re so happy we could make your day in St. Lucia special. Hope to see you back with us again soon! All the best! Solomon & Team

The Best of the Best!
I only gave 5 stars because that’s the most I could give. If I could, I’d give 1000’s. These guys are the best. They took care of us from start to finish. The only taxi service that stayed close by and got drinks and lunch.They never left us. Lunch was wonderful and was locally made by Solomon’s sweet family.They took care of us. Solomon was wonderful. This is a family business. Whendell, Solomon’s nephew, was our guide. No greater human on this planet. He was fantastic. I will count him as a friend forever. Captain Richard, Mala and Bonita are treasures that are there for your comfort and safety. I HIGHLY recommend Solomon’s Taxi Service as your #1 while visiting St Lucia. There is no other, none. Book with confidence. You will be most pleased. Todd and Juli. 100000000000000 Stars!!!!! Look no further than Solomon’s. If you’ve found him, you have found what you are looking for in St. Lucia.
Response from the operator: Dear Happy Customers, You guys are EVERYTHING! Thanks for the love, Todd & Juli! We’re beyond thrilled you had an unforgettable time with Solomon Water Taxi & Tours. Whendell, Captain Richard, Mala, Bonita and the whole crew are beaming with pride. Your shoutout means the world, and we’re so glad you felt like family and enjoyed our local cuisine. We’ll keep doing what we do best: delivering top‑notch service and local love to every guest. We will keep spreading the island love. Your recommendation means everything to us. Safe travels, and we can’t wait to welcome you back to St. Lucia! All the best, Solomon.

Amazing day on Solomon's boat
My husband and I had an amazing day with Richard and Whendell. We snorkeled at Sugar Beach and Anse Chastanet Beach. Both places were amazing. Then we had lunch at Solomon's mother's restaurant in Soufriere. Whendell showed us around his city where we saw a farmer's market, a beautiful catholic church and local shops. The food at the restaurant was delicious and just what we needed after snorkeling. We talked about different languages spoken on the island and schools and churches there. We even got suggestions for other local places to eat. We will do this again next time we get back to beautiful Saint Lucia.
Response from the operator: Hello to you, Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us here on TripAdvisor. Sounds like you guys had the ultimate island experience with Richard and Wendell! Sugar Beach and Anse Chastanet are both stunners – the snorkeling there is incredible! Lunch at Solomon's mom's restaurant sounds like a treat. I’m happy that Wendell really showed you the local vibes, taking you to the farmer's market, the church and local shops. Thank you for choosing our company and we look forward in welcoming you again on your next visit to our beautiful island Saint Lucia. All the best! Solomon.

A great day with Richard and Wendel! A perfect way to tour the west side of St. Lucia.
We had a great time with Richard and Wendel all day aboard Solomon’s Water Taxi and Tours. He took us around the Pitons, and all the way from Soufriere to Pigeon Island. We got off several times, including lunch at Marigot Bay, snorkeling and shopping at Castries Market. They were fantastic.
Response from the operator: Hello and Good Day to you , Thank you so much for choosing our company and for taking the time to share your experience with us. Sounds like you had an unforgettable day with Richard and Wendell; they will be thrilled to hear that you had an amazing experience with them. Solomon Water Taxi and Tours crew always bring the vibes; from the Pitons to Pigeon Island, you ticked off some major Saint Lucia highlights. Love that you squeezed in lunch at Marigot Bay and some Castries Market shopping . Thanks for sharing your adventure! We look forward in welcoming you again on your next visit to our beautiful island. All the best! Solomon.

Why this scores 77
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Best Of Full-Day Snorkeling & Beach Excursion with lunch & drinks: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Soufriere.
How much does Best Of Full-Day Snorkeling & Beach Excursion with lunch & drinks cost?
+
Prices start at $250 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Soufriere usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Best Of Full-Day Snorkeling & Beach Excursion with lunch & drinks take?
+
Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Soufriere is not rushed.
Is Best Of Full-Day Snorkeling & Beach Excursion with lunch & drinks worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 77 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 56 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Soufriere, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Best Of Full-Day Snorkeling & Beach Excursion with lunch & drinks?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Best Of Full-Day Snorkeling & Beach Excursion with lunch & drinks suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Best Of Full-Day Snorkeling & Beach Excursion with lunch & drinks?
+
Around 20 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Soufriere can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Soufriere and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Best Of Full-Day Snorkeling & Beach Excursion with lunch & drinks start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Soufriere within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Soufriere?
+
On Outty we rank every Soufriere experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Hot Chocolate Tours St. Lucia, Fully flexible Private Saint Lucia Soufriere Tour (Land), Mudbaths, Waterfall & Botanical Gardens Tour - All Inclusive. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Soufriere?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Soufriere?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
