Fast and reliable :) I just wish the returning hour would have been later so it would allow you to be longer on the island in case you are doing just a round day trip as I did

Amazing day trip to St Barths, ample time to explore the island at your own pace. We first took a stroll through Gustavia towards Shell Beach, and then took a car to Saint Jean where we enjoyed a delicious lunch at the beach, followed by swimming in the ocean. If you’re looking to do some shopping, the friendly staff recommended to do this first as many shops close between 1 and 3 pm.

Full description

St Barts is aptly called "The Jewel of the Caribbean". Just 45 minutes from Pelican Marina with the "Edge" ferries. Depart at 9 am from Simpson bay marina to arrive in Gustavia Harbour, the hub of activity.

Sidewalk cafes offer crepes and croissants for breakfast, car rentals meet the boat, the taxi stand is a few feet away, and boutiques are open for business. This exceptional island has white sandy beaches, good snorkeling, great restaurants and a unique shell museum. A day guaranteed to entertain with sights and delights.

The taxi tours offer island sightseeing and a stop at St Jean Beach for shopping, beaching and lunch, and then return to Gustavia with a short time to spare for shopping before the ferry departs. Check in for the boat is at 3:45pm, for departure at 4pm. Arrival at Pelican at approximately 4:45pm.

St. Barts also has some great scuba diving. Little pinnacles, reefs and wrecks are abundant with marine life and local dive shops are available. Dive trips can be arranged with St. Barts Plongee or Plongee Caraibes

This is a great trip for a day of snorkeling. The lunch was less than expected and skimpy, however, the boat staff were very nice, helpful and enjoying.
