Thanks to its sheltered bay, Deshaies is a popular pitstop for yachters from across the globe, which gives this pretty little fishing village a surprisingly chic, cosmopolitan air. The city is home to the wonderful Jardin Botanique, a tranquil showcase of tropical flora. It’s also just minutes from the soft sands of the Grande Anse and Plage de la Perle. The Caribbean coastline is dotted with glorious beaches, as well as world class diving and snorkeling spots, such as the renowned Cousteau Reserve. Colorful Creole architecture lines Deshaies’ main street of restaurants, bars and cafés, many of which offer lovely views over the harbor. The lively bars along the seafront are the place to be for sunset, so get there early to grab a front row seat.
