Sandals La Toc Excursions in St. Lucia

Although every Sandals all-inclusive resort has tons of complimentary activities onsite, you’ll probably also want to explore what the area has to offer. That’s where Sandals excursions come in. They cost extra but are super easy to arrange through the resort.

You can book Sandals excursions online via the Sandals website after you’ve made your reservation, or once you get to the resort. If there’s something you really want to do, we recommend booking it in advance just to be safe.

But what excursions does Sandals offer? They are different at each Sandals resort. In this article we’ll discuss Sandals La Toc excursions in St. Lucia, so read on to learn more.

Excursions at Sandals Regency La Toc

Considered one of the most romantic Caribbean islands, St. Lucia is often referred to as “little Hawaii.” This picturesque island is home to some jaw-dropping scenery, thanks to the Piton mountains and rainforest interior. You can enjoy spectacular views, stunning beaches, and a plethora of activities, making St. Lucia one of the best honeymoon destinations in the Caribbean.

Sandals Regency La Toc is one of three Sandals resorts in St. Lucia. All are in the northern part of the island and close to plenty of activities and nightlife. Each resort is a luxurious, adults-only enclave set on a gorgeous beach, but there are some differences.

When you stay at Sandals Regency La Toc, you get to enjoy the amenities and restaurants of the other two resorts; free transfers between the resorts is included. This means you can access 3 beaches, 2 golf courses, 11 pools, 27 restaurants, and 21 bars on your St. Lucia vacation!

There is a lot to do in St. Lucia, so you’ll have plenty of options. Sandals La Toc excursions are all managed by Island Routes, but you book and pay through Sandals.

St. Lucia is full of wonderful natural attractions, such as the Piton mountains, Soufriere Volcano, Toraille waterfall, and beautiful beaches. The advantage of staying at Sandals Regency La Toc is that it is the closest to the Pitons.

Popular Sandals St. Lucia excursions are boat rides to see the Pitons, a waterfall, and bathing in the volcanic mud pits. You can either go on a speed boat or on a more relaxed catamaran.

You can explore the Pitons or Pigeon Island National Park, or book an excursion such as a sunset snorkeling cruise, the Pigeon Island Undersea Trek, a historical sightseeing tour, a rum and chocolate experience, a dune buggy and ziplining rainforest tour, horseback riding on the beach, catamaran cruises, and more.

Let’s take a look at some of the Sandals La Toc excursions in more detail.

You can also go on excursions from Sandals Regency La Toc in St. Lucia with local guide companies or through online vendors like Get Your Guide and Viator.

In between excursions, you’ll have lots of onsite Sandals La Toc activities to choose from. Sandals Regency La Toc offer a wide range of complimentary activities, such as scuba diving, waterskiing, snorkeling, Hobie Cat sailing, paddleboarding, kayaking, windsurfing, wakeboarding, unlimited land sports, beach volleyball, day and night tennis, pool tables, bocce ball, and a fitness center. Professional instruction for watersports is also complimentary (except for scuba diving).

The beach at Regency La Toc is lovely but the water here can get rough enough for yellow and red flags. When that happens, you can’t do watersports, but you can take the free shuttle to the beach at Sandals Grande St. Lucian for watersports there. We absolutely loved the water and the waves, but understand that it is not for everyone.

If you like to golf, you can do so at Sandals La Toc’s onsite golf course, or you can play at the 18-hole championship course at the Sandals St. Lucia Golf Club, which is located near the Sandals Grande St. Lucian. You get complimentary greens fees and transfers to the golf courses.

Work out in the state-of-the-art fitness center and take exercise classes, or indulge at the spa (for an extra fee). And of course, you can lounge on the beautiful beach, relax by any of the pools, soak in a whirlpool, or enjoy tropical cocktails at a bar.

Daily and nightly entertainment at Sandals resorts includes live shows, theme nights, beach parties with local bands, and talent nights where guests participate.
