Across the channel

The right route changes everything.

A swim before breakfast. Lunch in another country. A last quiet bay on the way home.

Anguilla

British West Indies · 35–50 min

Anguilla

Powder-white beaches, shallow blue water and long lunches set the pace on Anguilla’s southern coast.

St. Barth

A brisk open-water crossing rewarded with Colombier, Gustavia and an afternoon built around a very good table.

Tintamarre

Réserve Naturelle · 25–40 min

Tintamarre

A low, uninhabited island where the water is clear, the turtles are often close and the morning feels beautifully unhurried.

Saint Martin · 20–35 min

Pinel Island

A small island with calm water, a bright reef and barefoot restaurants at the edge of the sand.

Grand Case

Saint Martin · 25–40 min

The island’s dining coast: a graceful bay, French-Caribbean kitchens and the easiest kind of long afternoon.

Creole Rock

Saint Martin · 20–30 min

A compact reef north of Grand Case with clear sightlines, active marine life and a memorable first swim.
