Getting there

Holidays in St Baths - Caribbean

Planes, trains, automobiles, or maybe even helicopter – we tell you the best way to go.

Planes
Getting there is a slight mission – just part of the exclusive charm. The nearest international hub is Juliana Airport on St Maarten, 25km away, or you can fly via Antigua or Guadeloupe. Air Caraibes (www.aircaraibesexpress.com; +590 (0)590 87 14 80) and St Barth Commuter (www.stbarthcommuter.com; + 590 (0)590 27 54 54) offer scheduled and charter flights.
Boats
For daily services between St Maarten and St Barths, contact Voyager (www.voyager-st-barths.com) or Rapid Explorer (www.rapidexplorer.com).
Automobiles
If you hire a car to explore your 21-square-kilometre playground (and just the one road), something diminutive is best. There’s a branch of Hertz at the airport. A local option based in Colombier (with a branch at the airport) is Gumbs Car Rental (+590 (0)590 27 75 32).
