St Barts Highlights
Gustavia

Gustavia, the capital of St Barts is a tropical landscape speckled with red roofed buildings of villas, boutique hotels, a trendy shopping atmosphere in the heart of the Caribbean. It's streets are lined with cozy cafes and world class restaurants. Be sure to trek around town and visit the historic sites like the 17th century forts that line the harbor, from Fort Karl in the north to Fort Gustaf with its lighthouse and cannons in the south.
Grand Saline

Grand Saline is perhaps the island's favorite beach offering a peaceful atmosphere and sandy ocean bottom that's great for swimming. There's no major development here and the beach can be reached in a short 10-minute walk up a rocky dune trail. There are fantastic lunch options at restaurants near the parking area, but the beach itself is just sand, sea, and sky. Grand Saline is a fantastic option for a day at the beach.
St Jean

St Jean is really comparable to a mini Côte d'Azur. With its beachside bistros, terrific shopping, boutique hotels, bronzed bodies, windsurfing, and day-trippers who tend to arrive on BIG yachts—the reef-protected strip is divided by Eden Rock promontory. Except when the hotels are filled, you can rent chaises and umbrellas at La Plage restaurant or Eden Rock, where you can lounge for hours over lunch.
