Taxi Gustavia to Corossol

Q: Where do we find a taxi in Gustavia?

The main stand is on rue de la Republique near the tourist office, opposite the harbor. We rarely use it as our first option — calling a driver directly or messaging our WhatsApp concierge usually gets a car faster.

About this route

From Gustavia to Corossol, our take

Gustavia to Corossol is a short 6-minute ride to the traditional fishing village just outside town, where small boats line the shore and a few seafood spots sit by the water.

Out of Gustavia, we count around 30 euros for this ride during the day, plus 5 euros after 6:30pm or on Sundays, and 10 euros between midnight and 6am. The drive itself takes about 6 minutes when traffic flows. Friday afternoons and Sunday brunch hours can slow things down a little.

Quick local note: during regatta weeks (especially Bucket and Voiles de Saint-Barth in March and April), the island fills up. Taxi waits double. We pre-book everything during those weeks.

How we book

Two ways that actually work

There is no Uber or Lyft on the island. We either call a driver ourselves, or our concierge matches us with one. Both are free.

Call a driver yourself

Browse the full directory and pick a driver yourself. Most prefer a WhatsApp message with pickup, destination and time. Confirm the price before the ride.

FAQ

Common questions about this route

Do we need to call ahead or can we just walk to the stand?

During the day a walk-up at the Gustavia stand often works. After 6:30pm or on Sundays, the stand is mostly empty because drivers are out on standby. We always recommend calling or messaging ahead in those cases.

Does the restaurant we are going to arrange the return taxi?

Many restaurants in Gustavia, Saline and Lurin keep their own driver contacts for guests. When we book a dinner reservation, we ask if they can arrange the ride home. It is a habit worth picking up.
