But what is it exactly that makes our petite, dreamy island so special? It’s certainly not in vain that it has been deemed one of the top islands in the Caribbean again and again, after all, and whatever magic finds itself buzzing underneath the surface is something we both have to thank and have to acknowledge.
Today, we will unravel the mystery and discover why staying here feels just like listening to the siren’s songs. Join us as we review what makes St. Barts so undeniably special and one of the top islands in the Caribbean.
A sailor’s paradise
As you may already know, every year, St. Barts welcomes dozens of skilled sailors in two major nautical events out there, the St. Barts Bucket Regatta and Les Voiles de St. Barts, thus positioning itself as one of the preferred destinations for those who like to grab their boat and float towards the horizon, feeling the salty breeze softly playing with their hair.
Due to its immaculate sailing conditions, the harbor of Gustavia is always full of elegant superyachts and all kinds of luxury vessels, becoming a spectacle not only for boat lovers but also for everyone just passing by who is promptly left speechless at the display of finesse seen at its docks.
Private and exclusive
Despite being one of the best-known top islands in the Caribbean, St. Barts is not crowded, not by any means. Its population is below 10,000, all scattered in the various neighborhoods and blocks, and the amount of tourists per year is roughly 200,000, all of them, of course, visiting throughout the year, in different months and seasons.
The beaches, the small natural havens, and even some squares of the town are almost always solely for you and a few other visitors, and not even the busiest months, like in spring or winter, see people rush or unbearable crowds. In St. Barts, the experience and the moment are yours and yours alone.
Shop with bliss
Amongst St. Barts’ many shops and stores, you will find absolutely everything, from trinkets and thingamabobs to bring back as souvenirs, to exquisite designer clothes and author jewelry to put together stunning outfits ideal for every and any occasion – dresses, shirts, coats, bags, and accessories just like the ones you’ve always been looking for.
Our beautiful island is a shopping paradise, where you will find the most select labels such as Hermès, Louis Vuitton, Dolce and Gabbana, and many more within its haute couture boutiques, all of them available for you to purchase as duty-free items, making luxury shopping a top priority and a hobby to definitely indulge in when visiting.
