Sint Eustatius Travel Guide

  1. Sint Eustatius

St Eustatius or Statia as it is better known, is a very calm and a tranquil island in the Caribbean. Rather than the beaches, the forts of Statia take centre stage as the main tourist attractions. Fort Oranje, replete with cannons, triple bastions and a cobblestone courtyard and the Fort de Windt situated on top of a cliff with splendid views of St.Kitts are the prime tourists spots.

The town of Zeelandia has a great beach and a great hiking trail. A vacation to Statia is incomplete without trips to Oranjestad and the St. Eustatius Museum.

Getting There

St Eustatius receives direct flights from St. Maarten and Saba and has an anchorage point for yachts and small cruise ships.

Weather & Climate

St Eustatius has pleasant moderate climate throughout the year with even rainfall. Hurricanes sometime occur between August and October.
