Beautiful St. Bart’s: A Caribbean Craze

June 7th, 2009 · No Comments

Royalty FreeWe have all heard about St. Bart’s. Maybe you know it as St. Barth’s. Maybe you know it as St. Barthelemy. Whatever the case and whatever the moniker, this is the same Caribbean paradise which has become the “it” destination for quite a number of celebrities and famous people, from actors to musicians to writers to directors and so on.

Fondly known as St. Bart’s, this warm paradise is actually a portion of the famed French West Indies. It is located to the north of the lesser Antilles, which is itself near Nevis, St. Kitts, and St. Martin. St. Bart’s is a comparably small island, comprised of merely eight square miles. The fact that it is so small and insulated is part of the reason it is so exclusive.

Characterized by pristine white beaches, cerulean seas, and exquisite coral reefs, St. Bart’s has been described as being less like the Caribbean, more like the decadent, soothing South of France.

The similarities do not end there. Many residents of St. Bart’s speak French, and the island’s currency is understandably represented by the Euro.

All the same, visitors from all over the world flock to this Caribbean island, to relax on the beach, enjoy the night life, and generally have the holiday of their dreams.
