Leisure Activities

Beaches

With glinting soft white sand, the 14 beaches on the island are perfect to enjoy a relaxing day soaking up the sun. If you want a really quiet, secluded beach, try either Lorient or Marigot Beach. Marigot is particularly good for swimming and snorkelling.

Scuba Diving

There are several dive centres on the island offering all levels of instruction from beginners to advanced. The beautiful blue waters are teaming with fish and colourful coral. If you would try something less demanding, snorkelling is also a possibility.

Sailing

Enjoy a fantastic day out on board a sailing ship or catamaran. You can even charter your own boat for the day complete with its own crew. It’s also possible, weather permitting, to completely circumnavigate the whole island, or just set sail on a sunset cruise.

More About St Barths

St Barths is a small, picturesque island located in the French Caribbean. The first settlers to this paradise island were from Brittany and the resort still retains a Mediterranean feel to it. Couples and honeymooners seeking a relaxed, get-away-from-it-all break will love it here. Known as a hideaway for the rich and famous, St Barths is secluded, private and not part of the main tourist islands. Here you will find exquisite boutique hotels, glamorous shops and fine-dining restaurants. Although this is a small island, there are lots of lovely beaches and coves making it a great place to enjoy some sunbathing and watersports. There are areas of living coral reefs and places where you can snorkel with the turtles, take out a surfboard or indulge in a spot of kayaking. Yachts, boats, jet skis and Hobie-cats can be hired and there are regular boat trips which are a perfect way to explore. PADI courses and diving expeditions can also be arranged capital of Gustavia is peppered with chic cafes and has a bustling marina. There is nothing better than enjoying a coffee and a buttery croissant while watching the world go by. Food choices are excellent with fresh local seafood the star of the show, especially the spiny lobster and the grilled yellow tail snapper.
