St. Barts—also known as St. Barths, and Saint Barthélemy—is a French-speaking Caribbean island known for its luxury hotels, and flawless beaches.
With no direct flights from the U.S., this little piece of paradise may not be the easiest place to reach, but that’s a big part of its allure. While many visitors arrive by private plane or yacht, you can go the commercial route from Miami with a direct flight to San Juan, and then a semi private charter with Tradewind for a seamless arrival to paradise. Trust us, the extra step is worth it.
