About Getting to Soufrière

Soufrière is about 45 minutes by road from Hewanorra International Airport, and the tourism authority recommends transport between its sights, which are spread out. From Castries and Rodney Bay the drive is long and winding, so many visitors come by catamaran or water taxi instead. Tet Paul’s owners say the trip from Castries takes about an hour by road or 35 minutes by boat.
