Where a charter takes you
The best of St Barts is on the water: half of these anchorages are hard or impossible to reach by road. Your captain adapts the itinerary to the day’s wind and swell — these are the stops our guests love most.
Colombier Bay
The most exclusive anchorage in St Barts: Colombier beach has no road access — you reach it by boat or a 30-minute hike. Calm turquoise water, sea turtles, and a wide sandy beach that stays uncrowded even in peak season. Our most requested stop for swimming and paddleboarding.
Shell Beach (Gustavia)
A few steps from Gustavia harbor, Shell Beach is covered in millions of tiny seashells. Swim from the boat, then step ashore for lunch at the beach restaurant. Perfect first or last stop of a charter day.
Gouverneur Beach
Wild, undeveloped and framed by green hills, Gouverneur is one of the most beautiful beaches of the Caribbean — no buildings, no beach bars, just white sand and clear water. Best enjoyed from the water on a morning cruise.
St Jean Bay
The lively heart of the island: Eden Rock, Nikki Beach and the famous planes landing over the beach. A great lunch anchorage with front-row seats on St Barts’ social scene.
Fourchue Island
A private, uninhabited island between St Barts and St Martin, inside the marine nature reserve. Moor on a buoy and snorkel over rays, turtles and tropical fish in a protected bay. Included in most full-day itineraries.
Tintamarre Island (St Martin)
On the St Martin day trip: an uninhabited island famous for snorkeling with sea turtles and its natural clay “mud bath”. Wide anchorage, shallow clear water.
Pinel Island (St Martin)
A shallow turquoise lagoon with two laid-back beach restaurants — the perfect lunch stop of the St Martin itinerary, ideal with children.
Build your itinerary
A half day typically combines two anchorages (Colombier + Shell Beach is the favorite). A full day adds Fourchue Island and a long lunch at anchor. The St Martin day trip covers Tintamarre and Pinel Island. See all formulas and rates on the Experiences & Rates page.
