Anse du Gouverneur

✨ Hidden gem

Tucked away on St. Barth's wild southern coast, Anse du Gouverneur is one of the island's most beautiful and secluded anchorages — the kind of spot that feels like a secret. You'll drop anchor off a pristine crescent beach with no facilities whatsoever, so come prepared with everything you need. Arrive early, as it draws a crowd by midday, and the holding is good in calm conditions — though it's exposed to southerly swells.
