Luxury villas for rent on the Island of St. Barthelemy
St. Barth is a unique French island that marches to its own beat and those in the know want to keep it that way.
Of the 20 beaches on the small island, several are considered especially inviting. On the southern side of the island, Grand Saline is a pristine beach with no development. On the western edge of the island is Colombier beach, which is only reachable by boat or a hike. St. Jean, Flamands and Grand-Cul-de-Sac beaches are also popular and attractive beaches which have hotels and other establishments on them. Shell Beach is popular for families with kids as it has little surf. The weather travels onto the island following the sun from the East. One of the main surfing beaches (Toiny) is known for its riptide, while Grand Fond is one of the island’s only non-swimming beaches.
Otherwise, scuba and snorkling are a great way to see the nurse sharks, lobsters, conch and green sea turtles that abound in the waters surrounding St. Barth. The beach of Grand Cul-de-Sac is the easiest beach in the Caribbean for learning as it has a reef which closes off the entire bay. The current that passes outside the reef here also carries the migrating whales and dolphins. St. Barth’s beaches are seldom crowded, they are all public and topless bathers are the norm. The island boasts an incredible array of excellent restaurants and exciting activities to keep you highly entertained.
