Rare voyager1964 Posted January 14 #1 Share Posted January 14 I asked a similar question on the Disabled board and on Antigua board, but this one is specific to St Lucia. We will be in Castries on Enchanted Princess and I wonder what the gangway can look like. If it is steep and/or with stairs, would the crew still be able to provide wheelchair assistance? Without manually lifting, just pushing the wheelchair? Thanks for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll have to be lifted or have a rough ride down/up. It is not all that steep, but it's not flat or smooth. They'll push you, if you want, it'll be a bit rough but not unmanageable. Wheelchair users visit St Lucia on every sailing, no problem. Enjoy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even the "smooth" side will be somewhat bumpy as the slats aren't perfectly aligned - they're a touch offset, and the tread on them, along with the gaps makes a bit rough. Very doable though.
