About Saint-Barth Yacht Club

Known for kitesurfing and sailing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces SW, so wind from the NE blows out to sea (our estimate from the coastline).

Water about 29°C: no wetsuit. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.

A spot for kitesurfing and sailing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing SW. Wind from the SW blows onshore, wind from the NE blows out to sea, and wind from the NW or SE runs along the shore. It is sheltered to the open sea. The sea floor shelves gently: 10 m deep about 400 m out (1 in 41). The sea is about 26°C in March, its coldest month (no wetsuit), and 29°C in July, its warmest (no wetsuit). The town to stay in is Gustavia. Within 5 km we also list 12 surf spots, 1 wind sports spot and 1 kayak spot.

The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).
