The best of the Caribbean and France = St. Barthélemy. This gorgeous and friendly island offers the most exciting elements of these two worlds! You can relax the day away on a beautiful beach or next to the pool, stroll Gustavia as the sun sets over the picturesque harbor, then dine at any one of almost one hundred excellent restaurants that dot the island. Chic French shops, fabulous food...beautiful beaches...incredible views....that's St. Barthelemy!
At 8 square miles, St. Barthelemy's only town is Gustavia, which draws its name from a time when Sweden ruled the island (1784-1878). Gustavia's scenic harbor is usually decorated with boats ranging from small fishing dingies to some of the world's most incredible yachts. Quaint houses and villas with traditional red roofs dot the hills surrounding the harbor. Here, casual is king!
On St. Barthelemy, there are no gambling casinos or golf courses. The nightlife is usually a wonderful dinner, scenic walks in town or on a beach, relaxation ...and romance!
