St Barths

By Kerry Biddle on 29th June, 2012

Whilst on St. Maarten, I visited St. Barths.  I had heard so many good things, that I needed to pay a visit to find out for myself.  I took the ferry from Bobby’s marina www.greatbayferry.com in Philipsburg to Gustavia on St. Barths.  The Journey takes about 40 minutes.  If you want to get there quicker, try flying on St. Barth Commuter www.stbarthcommuter.com .  The flight takes about 15 minutes and is certainly exciting!  When you arrive on St. Barths, you will see why it is the playground of the rich and famous.  All the top brands have shops in Gustavia and you will love the restaurants and bars on the island.  The vast majority of accommodation is not for the cash conscious but the level of luxury is out of this World.  If you go down to St.Jean, try the Tom Beach Hotel or Eden Rock www.edenrockhotel.com  You will certainly like what you find.
