Airport There are two airports in St Lucia and it may be important which one you fly into. In the north of the island is George FL Charles Airport (SLU) or ‘Vigie', which is situated conveniently close to the capital Castries and to the hotels in the north of the island. It is the ‘local' airport, which handles Caribbean flights (no bigger than 50 seats) from no further afield than San Juan in Puerto Rico . Many of the hotels are in the north of the island and so if you have the choice (ie you are coming from another Caribbean island), it will probably be most convenient to fly into here.
	There are check-in desks for LIAT, SVG Air – St Lucia Ltd (Air Taxi), American Eagle/American Airlines and Caribbean Star. There is a small restaurant/bar – La Vigie - a branch of the First National Bank, washrooms, telephones, a book shop, and Tambou, the Duty Free shop. Vigie Beach is across the road so you can enjoy a drink or snack at one of the beach shacks before departure. For arriving passengers there are several car hire booths. Hewanorra International Airport (UVF) is the ‘long haul' airport. Located right at the southern end of the island, close to the town of Vieux Fort , it is about an hour south of Castries . Only Hewanorra can take wide-bodied aircraft, so if you are on a transatlantic flight or arriving from the eastern seaboard of North America , you will fly into here. It is not that convenient for the hotels in the north of the island, but if you are staying near Soufrière then it is probably better to fly into this airport if you can.

In the Arrivals area you will find car hire company booths, a branch of the Bank of St Lucia with an ATM machine, and upstairs a bar with a viewing window. Beyond Immigration and Customs on departure you will find a small selection of duty free shops for locally made goods as well as the usual cigarettes and spirits and a couple of snack bars.


Bars & Nightlife St Lucia can be extremely lively and so the island is fun if you like to go out. The best nightlife is in Rodney Bay Village, where the bars, restaurants and clubs stand shoulder to shoulder along the road and the action often spills out onto the street. Some are bars only, but most restaurants will allow you into their bar for a drink. There is nowhere else on St Lucia with such a concentration of bars, but of course there are individual, usually lower key bars scattered around the island.
	St Lucia 's most famous evening out is Friday night at Gros Islet (in the village just north of Rodney Bay ). This has become a bit of a tourist attraction, but it still fun and is well worth attending for a drink and a dance to local music. Another similar option is JJ's at Marigot Bay . Of course the larger hotels, and some of the restaurants, offer up evening entertainment. There are a few more St Lucian clubs, which are fun if you're up for some local dancing.

Consider the following bars, most of them lively spots in the Rodney Bay area:
