We left Frigate Bay, St Kitts on March 12 for the 30 nm sail to St Barts. We rose and were underway before sunrise and had a fantastic sail in 15-20 knots of wind on the beam and 4-6 ft seas.
Saint Barthelemy, known as St Barths or St Barts (depending if you are French or English) is a small French-speaking island known for its white sand beaches, designer shops and high-end restaurants. St Barts has a reputation as a Caribbean playground for the rich and famous, but it's also a lively and colorful island with numerous historical and natural sights. While it's definitely a high-end destination, we found St Barts more charming and laid back than expected and would definitely recommend it as a destination.
