Dive and snorkel in St Barth….
Welcome to the french island
of Saint Barthelemy or St Barth for those in the known. This little paradise
is part of the French West Indies ( F.W.I.) and deserves to be known by divers.
In fact, for a number of years Saint Barth has had a Marine Reserve where
all forms of fishing are prohibited. .
 
Anchoring on the coral reefs is also prohibited,
resulting in a spectacular underwater world. An exceptional variety of sealife
flourishes in this part of Carribean. From the smallest colorful reef fish
to bigger predators such a nurse sharks, tarpons, and barracudas, all these
fishes are friendly, in St-Barth you dive in total safety.Scuba diving in
St Barths is for everybody with numerous dive spots ( 22 different dives in
The Marine Reserve alone) from 20 to 99 feet deep; coral reefs, caves, canyons....
all in 82/84°F crystal clear water.
  
From November to March St Barthelemy is for
the "Jet Set" then from April the island calms down considerably. On the island
the luxury hotels offer reasonable rates as well as the villas for rent. ST
Barth enjoys its "relaxed" season until October. Come and profit from the
watersports and the fine diving... or perhaps just a light snack on the beach
