The beaches and all they offer are not the only things to be appreciated on the island. You will find on Saint-Barthelemy a large choice of sporting and outdoor activities. Have confidence in our qualified professionals who can advice you on what is available and where.

Diving

Whether you use snorkeling equipment or you dive with bottles you will be enchanted by this rich and wonderful marine world You will discover in the not very deep waters, the magnificent coral reefs, the multitude of multi-coloured fishes and turtles (which have been illegal to fish since 1991).

Each beach has its coral reef; each small island has it rocks and grottos. The best diving is to be found around Pain du Sucre just out side the port of Gustavia, around the point at l’Ane Rouge in Colombier and around the Isle of Coco. Just outside the harbor in 1991 a ship sunk and you can have fabulous dive around this wreck at a depth of 75 meters.

Every person who dives in the protected marine reserves must pay 1 euro per dive. The funds raised go to help to maintain the moorings made available for boats wishing to visit the reserves.

Surfing and Windsurfing

St Jean and Grand Cul-de-Sac are best for Windsurfing whilst Anse des Cayes and Lorient are more frequented by surfers. Windsurfing boards and catamarans can be hired on the beach at St Jean. As a novice or at competition level, specialist schools and shops will advise you in either of these water sports.
