🇺🇸 Airport View – St Jean Side

Watch planes land just above the sea

From this playful and unexpected spot on the St Jean side, you can watch planes fly low over the bay as they approach the short runway of St. Barth’s iconic airport. It’s a favorite location for aviation lovers and photographers—and a fun place for kids to play in the shallow water.

Des avions qui frôlent la mer sous vos yeux

Depuis ce point original côté Saint-Jean, vous pouvez observer les avions survoler la baie à basse altitude juste avant d’atterrir. Un spot apprécié des amateurs d’aviation, des photographes, et des familles avec enfants qui aiment s’amuser dans l’eau peu profonde.
