St Barthélemy / Special Interests / Day Sailing

Day sailing trips from St Barths are popular and there are nice protected bays with excellent sand and a number of quiet beaches on the offshore islands that scatter the waters to the northwest. Trips do go as far afield as the islands off St Martin, which also have wonderful strips of sand with beach bars. Other trips go to Anguilla, where the beaches are fantastic and there are some excellent, slightly more rustic beach bars.

If you want a bit more privacy, a monohull yacht costs from around €600 for a half day and €1000 for a full day charter in the winter season.  Local organiser, Destination Management Services, knows the various companies and their boats and can tailor-make the service for you.

Day sailing trips and yacht charter on St Barths is also available through:
