Saint Barthelemy

BL

Where the only thing more abundant than the beaches are the Instagram selfies.

Saint Barthélemy: The place where your wallet will be as drained as the island's water supply during peak tourist season.

Saint Barthélemy: Where you'll be so busy sipping champagne and lounging on yachts that you'll forget you're technically in a French territory.

The island was a Swedish colony for nearly a century before being sold back to France in 1878.

Gustavia is named after King Gustav III of Sweden.
