Private Yacht Charters in St Barts

When you decide to charter a yacht in St Barts for your vacation, you may want to simply spend the time on the closest beach, with the latest blockbuster propped on your lap ready to read. It may be that this is something which you don’t have the time to do at home, or alternatively, you may want to take part in something which is a little more active. So what can you do to pass the time when on your luxury yacht vacation in St Barts?

Well, as is usual in this part of the world, when you take a yacht charter, there will always be the option to take part in various water activities. It would seem a shame not to when you consider the fact that you might not get the opportunity to see such a beautiful part of the world sometime soon. Take advantage of the time you do have in St. Barts by enjoying the pleasures of magical underwater observation.

The massive corals are often in full bloom, with an array of multi-colored coral fish in view everywhere. The most spectacular dives can be taken around Pain de Sucre, which is an islet off Gustavia harbour. Or you could try chartering one of the yachts to take you diving around a small cape, l’Ane Rouge, which is off Colombier bay.

The marine turtles were protected in 1991 and since then have rapidly reappeared in Colombier, Fourchue, and all around the island. Anyone who does dive in the waters which have been protected by the marine park, even though sailing yachts are quite eco friendly, when diving it is required to contribute one euro per dive to the park.

Another thing to pass the time when you take a luxury yacht charter in St Barts is the shopping. St. Barts is a duty free port, and people are always delighted with the choice of shops reminiscent of Rue du Faubourg St. Honoré in Paris. You will discover the likes of Hèrmes, Louis Vuitton, Chopard, Bulgari and Cartier, etc.
