Port de Gustavia

Gustavia, St. Barthélemy · 17.898°N 62.850°W

SUPERCOORDINATEDOPERATIONAL

A tiny, Med-style harbour that becomes a floating city between Christmas and New Year. Published capacity is a suggestion; rafting, tenders and a closed reservation list are the winter truth.

Restrictions

  • SPEEDVerified

    Dead slow, no wake inside the harbour.

    Harbour master / marina office published notices

  • HURRICANE_PROTOCOLVerified

    Hurricane / cyclone plan is first-class operational truth here. Haul-out priority and evacuation rules override ordinary reservations.

    Harbour master / marina office published notices

  • NIGHT_ENTRYVerified

    Night and New Year movements are tightly controlled. Tender traffic is the hidden hazard.

Conflicts in the ledger

  • Published vs actual New Year capacity

    The quay cannot physically hold the winter holiday fleet. Outer-bay rafting is not the same as a reserved alongside berth. Do not store them as one inventory number.
