St Lucia

[MidnightWizard]

I looked for a travel and holiday forum but there appears to not be one
So
IF anything to do with Prince Harry is news ......??
Here is St Lucia and Harry ( PS ; It is NOT in KZN )

Idling in the foyer of the Sandals hotel in St Lucia, a familiar face suddenly bisects my line of vision.
At first I struggle to place the pale-faced, ginger-haired young man - his smart suit and crisp white shirt a stark contrast to the sunburn and beachwear sported by me and my fellow guests.
But then it all suddenly clicks in to place – it's Prince Harry, the fifth in line to the throne.

SA passport:
Saint Lucia - Visa not required - 6 weeks

Money is the best Passport .....

Can you use your passport to travel there?

Maybe
I would imagine you would need a plane ticket / boat cruise ticket ?
Maybe there are direct flights from London ?
How else does one visit a foreign country ?

I am sure it would make a perfect asylum hide-out for Zuma en kie
Especially CARNIVAL ......

MW why the obsession, not exactly a secret location. Often drive up that way, beautiful part of the country.

That's one hell of a drive since it's an island in the Caribbean. How did you accomplish that?

Never had any issues. Some parts you may need a 4x4 but the route is generally in good condition.

How did you get the 4x4 to float in the Atlantic?

It's not all wetlands, you could go hardcore 4x4 in the rainy season if really concerned.

Many of the local people drive ordinary cars with no problems; so you do not have to hire a 4x4.
Personally, I always do hire a 4x4, for two reasons:
Some of the speed bumps on the roads in the north (Around Cap Estate), and also the potholes all over the island, can be quite pronounced; so I like the extra ground clearance a 4x4 gives me.
I like to explore off the main roads, like going down to five dollar beach, or the old track down to Anse Cochon; and for that you need a 4x4.
I usually hire a small 4x4, a Daihutsu Terios. The quoted rate for that is around 70 US, although when you add CDW and tax, it is nearer 90 US; but then I suspect that your 45 US rate for a car is without insurance and tax.
However, going back to my first point, I would guess that around 70% of Looshans have an ordinary car.
