Blue North Scuba Club is pleased to have a sold-out trip to the beautiful Caribbean island of St. Lucia, Nov. 30 – Dec. 7, 2025. Twenty-five members registered to join Blue North on this 8-day, 7-night adventure, that has appeal for both scuba divers and non-divers. We’ll be flying Air Canada non-stop between Toronto and St. Lucia.

Our home for the week will be the acclaimed Anse Chastanet Beach Resort
https://ansechastanet.com/ , the perfect place from which to enjoy the island’s beauty on land and under the sea. Set on a lush 600-acre oceanfront nature preserve with two private beaches, a lively house reef and spectacular views of the island’s famous Piton mountains, this property has been named one of the Caribbean’s most scenic luxury destinations.
We’ll be diving with on-site Scuba St. Lucia https://scubastlucia.com/ the island’s premier and longest-established dive centre. It is a PADI Five-Star DAN ‘Partners in Dive Safety’ facility, located on the south end of Anse Chastanet Beach. The marine protected area surrounding the resort is considered one of the Caribbean’s most scenic and ecologically rich marine ecosystems. Scuba St. Lucia provides immediate shore diving access to Anse Chastanet Reef and daily boat diving on signature sights within the preserve and beyond. Our package includes 12 boat dives, two night shore dives, and additional scheduled shore dives.
For non-scuba divers who love snorkelling … St. Lucia consistently ranks as one of the top three snorkelling destinations in the Caribbean, with the house reef at Anse Chastanet described as one of the best spots for this activity on the island. The reef starts just 9 metres beyond the water’s edge. Its remarkable ecosystem offers an amazing profusion of tropical marine life in shallow, calm and clear water. Anse Chastanet Reef is home to more than 150 different species of fish.
For those interested in sightseeing, Anne Chastanet is located near most of St. Lucia’s most important attractions: The Sulphur Springs, St. Lucia’s famous walk-in volcano, the Louis XVI Mineral Baths, the Tropical Rain Forest and the famous Twin Pitons. Also, hiking, biking, birdwatching, and cruises on the water can be booked … the list goes on. Or, sit back, relax and enjoy the view.
We’ve secured the best group rates of the year for this premium inclusive resort and dive package. Please see the attached Trip Flyer for all the details, inclusions and how to register.
Looking forward to sharing this experience with you!
