What is St. Lucia Times?

The St. Lucia Times is a news website at stluciatimes.com. Its advertising page states: “St. Lucia Times is a news and lifestyle media house owned by Caribbean Today Media.” The same page lists ePaper, website, newsletter and social media among the platforms it sells.[2] The footer of its home page, as retrieved on 26 September 2026, reads “© Copyright 2026 - St. Lucia Times. Caribbean Today Media.”[1] Those are the outlet's own statements of its ownership; no company register entry or regulator's record of the owner was retrieved.

Its sports reporting sits on a path of the same domain, stluciatimes.com/category/sports/, alongside news categories such as business, politics and government, health and education.[1][3]
