Gustavia

Fodor's Review:

You can easily explore all of Gustavia during a two-hour stroll. Most shops close from noon to 2, so plan lunch accordingly. A good spot to park your car is rue de la République, where catamarans, yachts, and sailboats are moored. The tourist office (0590/27-87-27. ) on the pier can provide maps and a wealth of information. It's open Monday from 8:30 to 12:30, Tuesday through Friday from 8 to noon and 2 to 5, and Saturday from 9 to noon. On the far side of the harbor known as La Pointe is the charming Municipal Museum, where you can find watercolors, portraits, photographs, and historic documents detailing the island's history as well as displays of the island's flowers, plants, and marine life. 599/29-71-55. EUR 2. Mon., Tues., Thurs., and Fri. 8:30-12:30 and 2:30-6, Sat. 9-12:30.
