St Eustatius / Island Hopping

By Nigel Tisdall

St Eustatius is one of several escapes in the Leeward Islands that can be easily reached travelling via the French-Dutch hub of St Martin/St Maarten. Sadly you'll have to go keep going in and out of this highly-developed tourist island to reach them. For a rewarding taste of the great variety of experiences this part of the Caribbean offers consider visiting St Barths (French and upmarket), Anguilla (British with top class beaches) and Saba (Dutch with good diving).
