How it works
Operators on the waterfront in Soufrière and at the Rodney Bay marina advertise Pitons boat tours or snorkeling trips at a headline price, then add fees for fuel surcharges, park entrance, snorkeling equipment, food, and tips at the end of the trip. The total can be double the advertised rate. Some operators also collect money for a national marine reserve entrance fee that they pocket rather than submit.
