The smallest island in the French West Indies at only eight square miles, yet the most superlative among them all, St Barths’ outstanding beauty, sparkling sea, and chic French style leaves a lasting impression! Widely popular for the discerning traveller yet still a best kept secret, the island boasts a charming mix of Caribbean flair and French culture through its stunning architecture, exquisite cuisine, and designer shopping.
St Barths is a true lifestyle destination with more than 20 pristine white sand beaches overlooking crystal clear waters and easy on the eye mega yachts. It is also home to a myriad of luxury resorts to suit every taste from the glitz and glamour to secluded beach chic, each offering a sophisticated escape with definitive style and fluent opulence.
St Barths highlights
One of the largest beaches on the island is located on the northwest coast and there’s no wonder why visitors flock here. Relax on the beach, take a swim, and dine in a beachfront restaurant with the freshest lobster directly from the tank.
If you’re after a quieter beach with stunning lush green hills framing the powder soft sands, then Gouverneur Beach is your answer. This idyllic cove has some of the best snorkelling around the island. So don’t forget to take your mask and snorkel.
Take in the impressive island from the sea on a luxury catamaran cruise. Explore the beautiful coastline by sunset, discover the kaleidoscopic coral reefs, or circumvent St Barths exploring beaches, national parks and Shell Beach Cliffs along the way.
St Barths’ gleaming waters are the perfect paradise for an array of water sports. Aside from snorkelling, dive and explore the vibrant marine life or enjoy sailing, paddleboarding, kayaking, windsurfing and more.
St. Barths is so well known for its sophisticated escapism that its adventurous side is sometimes forgotten. Beyond its beaches and champagne lunches are scenic hiking trails leading through lush hillsides to secluded coves and panoramic views showcasing the island’s striking natural beauty.
Where to stay in St Barths
For such a small island, there is a wide selection of hotels to choose from and each caters perfectly to every preference and taste. Dotted on different coasts of St Barths and fringed with palm trees, or nestled in the tropical hillside, take your pick from modern interpretations of colonial French style to sleek and elegant interiors.
