St Lucia has always been a popular destination with many superyachts. Now with the opening of new IYG super yacht facilities at Rodney Bay Marina the island is seeing celebrities arriving with their mega yachts.
Recent visitors have included rock star Bono, golfer Tiger Woods, Russian entrepreneur Roman Abramavich and US talks show host Oprah. The new facilities can now take yachts on 32 dedicated berths up to 76 metres in length.
The new airport terminal at Hewanorra International Airport in Vieux-Fort is designed to accommodate increased airlift, which is scheduled to triple in the summer of 2010 and to bring the airport up to speed with international trends and standards. Work started on the new terminal in January 2010 and it will take two years to complete.
St Lucia’s first casino is due to open next month and the Baywalk Shopping Mall in Rodney is close to completion with two floors of retail shops including some of the world’s best luxury brands.
