Lorient, St. Barth
Lorient is one of the oldest villages in Saint Barth and is one of the most charming areas we toured while on the island. Like most of St. Barth, Lorient features a gorgeous white-sand beach surrounding the sparkling Caribbean blue waters. The beach is lightly peppered with charming Caribbean-style vacation homes.
A recently renovated church sits atop the hill of Lorient and is used for music festival concerts in January. The beach is perfect for families looking for a quieter, less busy spot who will appreciate the calm and clear waters. Surfers will also enjoy this popular spot to catch some warm Caribbean waves!
In the small local villas, you’ll find a few shops, restaurants, two grocery shops, and a bakery, all within walking distance of the beach. There is also a small and colorful surf hut on the beach where guests can get lessons and rent boards. If you are more inclined to relax, grab a few beach chairs and spend the day letting go (clothing optional).
Local tip: Stop by a nearby bakery or grocer, grab a Baguette and a Carib, and enjoy lunch by the beach under the palm trees!
