Accessible: Accessible Piton Mountains, Diamond Botanical Gardens & Adventurous Waterfall

This accessible St. Lucia shore excursion offers a fun and full day of experiencing the very best highlights of the island. Visit the charming fishing village Anse La Ray, see the majestic Pitons and experience the Diamond Botanical Garden where an adventurous gravel path leads to the Waterfall in Soufriere. Start your day by meeting your guide and accessible van at the St. Lucia cruise dock. First, you’ll set out on a beautiful scenic island drive through banana plantations and beautiful mountain views, before making a stop in Anse La Raye, a small, charming fishing village to the far western side of the island right next to Castries. In Anse La Raye, you will exit the van by the small center square to get out and explore firsthand. Take a stroll down the small pier, meet local fishermen and see what they caught for the day, make your way around the charming little city streets with traditional small cottages, and visit the beautiful old cathedral from the early 16th century. As your tour continues to the city of Soufriere, you will make several photo stops along the way. Not only is St. Lucia lush and rich in produce, it is a volcanic island which provides some amazing views, including the Pitons. While the Pitons volcano site is not wheelchair accessible, one can still see them from afar and capture some beautiful photos. In the popular Diamond Botanical Garden, your tour guide will take you on a spectacular stroll while sharing all that he knows about the fauna and produce of the island. The path in the garden is accessible with no steps or steep inclines. As you near the end of the Gardens, the path transitions into an adventurous gravel trail for the final two minutes. This leads you up to a stunning viewpoint where the breathtaking Diamond Waterfall unfolds right before your eyes. There is an accessible restaurant right next to the gardens, where you can enjoy a delicious traditional St. Lucia buffet and fresh squeezed juice on your own if you desire.
