The Vieux Fort River is a river in Saint Lucia. It flows south-southeast, reaching the coast close to the country's southernmost point at the town of Vieux Fort. It is named after a fort that used to watch out towards Saint Vincent towards the south. Since the colonial period, it has been a source of fresh water for the area. The Petit Rivière du Vieux Fort, or Little Vieux Fort River, is a tributary of the main river. Together the two rivers form the Vieux Fort River basin, which covers just over 7,000 acres.
