nycatty35 Posted February 23, 2019 #1 Share Posted February 23, 2019 My wife and I will be visiting for the day on a cruise in March. We don’t want to sight see, but would love to find a place to spend the day on the beach and have great lunch. Hotel with a day pass could work, but really want something low key and special. Thoughts would be appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ski Mom 2 Posted March 10, 2019 #2 Share Posted March 10, 2019 A couple of years ago we visited St Barths on a cruise. We rented a car and drove from beach to beach, bar to bar. My favorite stop was at Flamand Beach. It was gorgeous! We met a couple on the beach that was staying at The Flamand Beach Hotel and said they had a lovely restaurant. We wandered over and discovered a group from our cruise having lunch. They were so surprised to see us because they had made reservations months in advance and we had just stumbled in. We were lucky they had a table for us and I have to say it was the most wonderful day and the food was fantastic! We had a delightful bottle of rosé from Provence that paired nicely with our seafood. Here is the link: http://www.flamandbeachhotel.com/en/restaurant/index.html Here is a photo of the gazpacho we had that day. We also had fresh fish and crab too.

Rare boblerm Posted March 19, 2019 #3 Share Posted March 19, 2019 If you don't mind spending $$$, ( hard to avoid in St. Barts), Shellona restaurant at Shell Beach is very nice. I report on it here https://boards.cruisecritic.com/topic/2638359-shell-beach/ Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
princeton123211 Posted March 29, 2019 #4 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Our favorite beach restaurant in St Barts is the Sand Bar at Eden Rock. The resort was largely destroyed in the hurricane and I believe they are about to reopen in the next few months. The restaurant itself is run by Jean-Georges and is right on the beach. Super expensive but perfect vibe and nice balance of health conscious and comfort foods (think great salads, homemade pizzas, and a killer burger). Not sure if it will be reopened by the time you get there but its a quick taxi ride up over the hill past the airport from town. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
