Topic 'Anchorage'

Every once in a while you need to take a break from ‘camping out’ on the yacht and partake of some land-based facilities. Lucky for us, we were anchored close to the new Scrub Island Resort. Finished in 2010, the facility is beautiful and has a number of restaurants, a full service spa, pools and of course a nice marina.

In the many years we spent exploring the Caribbean we’d never made it to St. Bartholemy. During our years of flying, St. Barth’s was intriguing but off limits to us as the runway is renowned in the aviation world for being one of the toughest to handle. The French agree as they insist on you taking a course and annual test ride with an instuctor to be able to land there.
