Port Castries Arrival Guide for Viking Cruises Passengers

Terminal & Berth Assignment: Pointe Seraphine vs. La Place Carenage

Cruise vessels calling at Port Castries dock at one of two duty-free harbor terminals: Pointe Seraphine (on the northern peninsula, equipped with two mega-ship finger piers) or La Place Carenage (on the southern city-center wharf alongside Jeremie Street). Walk straight through your assigned duty-free terminal concourse to the main security exit gate—your assigned LUCON driver tracks Viking Cruises harbor master berth assignments in real time and meets your party immediately outside the terminal gate holding a printed nameboard.

To eliminate pier congestion risk on multi-ship port days, LUCON dispatches your private driver right at gangway clearance and schedules all return legs to arrive back at the ship at least 90 minutes before gangway up.
