St Lucia Airports

Lying in the southeastern Caribbean, St Lucia is perhaps one of the most popular destinations in the Caribbean, mainly owing to its fine collection of beach resorts. Situated not far from Barbados, there are a couple of international airports on the island, one in the north and the other in the south. Flights arrive mainly from the US mainland and Europe, including regular connections with London.

Most tourists head for the northern part of the island, where most of the best beaches and resorts reside, while many people choose to visit the capital city of Castries. Visitors are also impressed with the interior of the island, which is synonymous with lush, green mountains strewn with wild orchids and quaint fishing villages. The Anglo-French connection adds flavour to the island and architectural influences are evident.

The main airport at St Lucia is located in the south of the island, while the smaller, less used George Charles Inter-Island Airport lies in the north. As most of the activity goes on in the north of the island, passengers may find themselves on a longer transfer than they bargained for if they fly to Hewanorra International Airport.

St Lucia Hewanorra International Airport is located in the south of the island near Vieux-Fort, about 40 miles from the capital city of Castries. One terminal serves about 400,000 passengers per year and the airport receives flights from many international destinations with major carriers including British Airways, Air Canada, Air Jamaica and Virgin Atlantic Airways. The smaller airport in the north only serves Caribbean destinations.

Public buses and taxis are available from both airports to destinations all over the island.
