St Barts Map: Beaches, Hotels And Gustavia Harbour

Saint Barthelemy packs a lot of coast into a small island. This map anchors on Gustavia, the capital and main harbour, and pins the beaches and hotel areas around the shoreline. The charter and sail tours that cover the surrounding water all leave from harbours on St Martin (Simpson Bay, Cole Bay, Anse Marcel and Grand Case), just off the map to the north-west, so the ferry routes matter as much as the roads.

How The Harbour, Beaches And Ferry Routes Fit

Most visitors reach Saint Barthelemy by small aircraft or by sea, and nearly everything on the island lies close to the water. Beaches ring the coast: Saint-Jean, Saline, Gouverneur, Shell Beach, Flamands, Colombier, Grand Cul-de-Sac, Lorient, Toiny, Marigot and Corossol. Ferry and boat connections from St Martin all arrive at Gustavia, so the harbour works as the natural anchor for reading the map.
