The Caribbean's technical and crew-change capital. A lagoon behind a bridge: air draft and opening times are as important as berth length. Isle de Sol and the French side are neighbouring, not identical, products.

EstimateBusy-time intelligence
August: no dedicated climatology window — using harbour baseline. HIGH December–April; hurricane prep in late summer Bridge openings cluster arrivals. A reserved berth can still wait on the outside. This is an estimate derived from declared inventory and seasonal demand, not a live sensor count or a passenger-style headcount.
