Kayaking the Coast of Soufriere Bay

Our basic and most popular tour option is Kayaking the Coast of Soufriere Bay. Donning our PFD's, Personal Flotation Devices, our guide will lead you out and around Grand Caille Point and over one of our very popular dive sites, FAIRYLAND. From there, we will continue to paddle along the coast to examine the weathered volcanic cliffs eventually reaching the famed bat cave and Hummingbird Beach at the north end of the Soufriere waterfront. All along the way, you will be treated to great views of the twin peaks of the Pitons - a UNESCO World Heritage site - rising majestically out of the sea. A waterproof camera is a must! This Soufriere Bay Coast tour returns to the resort around 1:30.

Paddle to the Pitons

Our most demanding and exhilarating kayaking option is the Paddle to the Pitons tour that takes you across Soufriere Bay to Petit Piton to enjoy the spectacular views of the sheer mountain face rising vertically from the sea to a height of nearly one-half mile. After exploring more of the magnificent coast you will land ashore to stretch your legs or perhaps take a relaxing swim. On the return journey you will have the option of following the bay coastline towards the town of Soufriere for some added sightseeing.

Fishing Villages & Beach Picnic

Our Fishing Villages & Beach Picnic tour allows you to explore the scenic coastline north of the resort. Once you've worked up a good appetite your guide will arrange for the delivery by boat of an excellent lunch prepared especially for you our Anse Chastanet Resort chefs. There are several scenic deserted beach options on which you can enjoy your Caribbean picnic. After lunch and a cooling swim, you will return at a leisurely pace to the resort.

Sunset Kayak

For our more romantic guests we offer a Sunset Kayak tour that departs later in the afternoon allowing you to enjoy a Caribbean sunset out on the sea.

Birdwatching Kayak Combo

And if birds are your interest there's the Birdwatching Kayak Combo that focuses on the activities and nesting sites of a variety of seabirds that make the rugged cliffs in our area their home.
