CALABASH COVE LEISURE CONCIERGE
The Leisure Concierge at Calabash Cove offers a number of individually tailored excursions, specifically designed to enable you to experience the best that St. Lucia has to offer. Sail the high seas with one of St. Lucia's most charismatic storytellers, or treat yourselves to a romantic champagne picnic in the heart of our unspoiled countryside. Take an exhilarating hike to the top of one of our majestic Pitons and witness unrivalled views across the island and north to Martinique, or indulge in the same breathtaking vistas from the comfort of your helicopter. The options below represent a small selection of what we offer - whether you seek romance or adventure, or a combination of both, our Leisure Concierge will work with you to transform your dreams into reality.
SAILING
Join Maurice, a certified yacht charter captain and infamous local storyteller, onboard his 37' yacht One Time and set sail for a day of adventure and entertainment like you've never experienced before.
Whether you are a seasoned pro, or trying sailing for the first time, Maurice will hand you the wheel, let you hoist the sails and handle the grinders. If you prefer to sit back and soak up the sun (and the champagne) let Maurice do what he does best - show you St. Lucia from a very different perspective. Of course, no trip would be complete without Maurice's legendary storytelling - a fascinating account of St. Lucian history with a handful of tall tales for good measure!
Half Day US$350. Full Day (including lunch) US$750. Rates are based on two persons and include transfers. Group rates available on request.
ROMANTIC COUNTRYSIDE PICNIC
No additives. No preservatives. 100% all natural. That's how Donald Anthony describes his corner of St. Lucia. Meticulously nurtured and maintained by his family the property consists of, amongst others, a forest trail, medicinal and herbal gardens, bee observatory, coal making pit and love pond. As part of a very special agreement with Donald, Calabash Cove is proud to invite you to take a look at St. Lucia's unspoiled natural habitat - wander through the lush, seductive gardens, whisper sweet promises to each other by the love pond and enjoy a champagne picnic lunch while hummingbirds and butterflies compete for your attention.
US$145. Price includes transfers, entrance fee, tour of gardens and picnic basket.
PITON TREK
Take the ultimate St. Lucian challenge and climb to the peak of the world-famous Gros Piton, designated a World Heritage Site by UNESCO and described by Oprah as one of the four places you must see during your life. Your day begins with a trip by boat down the west coast, taking in the sights of Marigot Bay and Anse Cochon, before disembarking at Anse la Voine, at the base of the mountain. Your Guide will then accompany you to the summit, from which the view has to be seen to be believed, with clear views across to Martinique to the north and St. Vincent to the south.
Please note that while the climb does not require special experience or equipment it is nonetheless strenuous and not suitable for all. Hiking boots or sturdy trainers are required, and long sleeves and insect repellant are recommended.
US$135 per person, including transfers, admission fee, bottled water during the climb and lunch on the beach afterwards.
All prices are quoted in US$.
