Hi. We enjoy going over. I will only fly and if we go we take the St Barth Commuter from Grand Case. It’s been a while but I think it was 189 round trip. 10 minute flight. Easy to explore - rent a car at the airport and have a taxi take you around. If you shop - some of the high end shops have great deals. Hermes, Longchamp, Bulgari etc. Havent been since after Irma but before Covid. So not sure what’s still there. We’ve walked from town to Shell Beach and have visited many others. I enjoy it. It’s pricey! But depends on your idea of pricey!!
