Maarten to the next port on our 26 day Caribbean cruise. When we pulled into the port at St Barts, the port was sparking blue and filled with yachts from the regatta held the previous day. We wished we had chosen a water excursion in this port but there had been a limited selection. We figured it was likely because it was Sunday and much of the town was closed.

Touring the Island By ATV

Since I figured I could not afford to shop in St. Barts, the shopping being closed was not impacting my port options. A taxi dropped us off on the far side of town in front of the ATV shop.

Many people had not read the tour details and got a little bit of a surprise when we returned from our ATV ride and they had to walk back into town! But the short 15 minute walk back to the port area let me loosen up the tight muscles from the bumpy ATV ride. The ship had provided a notice about weight limits for sharing an ATV and we took advantage of this to ask for our own machines.

10 Best Things To Do in St Barts

David and I were right in behind our leader but several of the people in the line had trouble keeping up or getting going after we stopped. I had no problem operating the ATV and racing up the steep hills or braking down the steep hills. Our tour leader set a brisk pace that meant most of the island scenery whipped by far too quickly. Paying attention to the bumpy road and the traffic, it was hard to catch much of what we went by.

David was able to drive with one hand and snap some pictures as we rode. There were 3 actual stops to look out at the vista over the water — once to gaze back to the harbour, once on the rough waves of the Caribbean we thought it might be the Atlantic and a final stop at a high point at Morne du Vitet by the Villa Carmen. The views were great but our guide did not really provide much commentary on the island of St.

Barts at the stops and there we no communication devices for the drivers to talk with the riders as we went. We had one unplanned stop when we waited for the stragglers to catch up. These natural pools are the perfect place to splash around and cool off before the hot hike back to Grand Fond. People-watching in St Barts may leave you feeling a little shabby — I know my travel clothes are not up to the glamour.

All-night-parties are one of the most legendary things to do in St Barts — people talk about them for years afterwards. At Le Ti St. Dive in and enjoy! Sleeping in the nude on Saline Beach is one of the most relaxing things to do in St Barts. A short hike over rolling sand dunes brings you to this secluded arc of soft white sand. Though nudity is officially forbidden on the island, Saline Beach is the place for baring it all, and many sunbathers are not shy.

Windsurf in a Cul de Sac

This gorgeous stretch on the south coast is the perfect place to recharge, get rid of your tan lines, and get ready for another all-nighter. Beaches, shopping, water sports and legendary parties are all part of the St Barts way of life. Your email address will not be published.
