About
About Karu'lis
Karu'lis is the public transport network of the Pointe-à-Pitre area in Guadeloupe, the French Antilles. Alongside its city buses it runs a maritime shuttle — a "Bus des Mers" — that crosses the bay of Pointe-à-Pitre, an unusual waterbus service launched in 2019.
Across the bay of Pointe-à-Pitre
The maritime shuttles cross the sheltered Petit Cul-de-Sac Marin bay between the harbour quays of central Pointe-à-Pitre and points such as the industrial hub of Jarry at Baie-Mahault, linking the waterfront terminals around the Darse. The boats offer commuters a quick way across the water that bypasses the congested roads around the agglomeration.
Service and fares
The waterbus lines are integrated into the wider Karu'lis bus network, so the same low-cost ticket (around €1.20) and passes apply. Fares are in euros, and the shuttles run as part of the everyday urban transit system.
