Last year we did a day trip to Anguilla, and it was cool the way they basically "hand-held" you, i.e., directed you to a taxi, which conveniently picked you up at the end of the day (We taxied to Shoal Bay East from the dock upon arrival).

Is it similar with a St. Bart's day trip, or do you need to rent a car. We figured the first trip we would just take baby steps upon arrival in St. Barts; it's only for a day trip, after all. We're hoping there's a beach near the arrival point, and shops/food, etc. Otherwise, a taxi to a nice spot with those amenities and then hopefully the taxi also picks us up around 5pm or so, similar to how we did it in Anguilla. Any helpful info would be much appreciated. Thank you !
