Arid, volcanic rock is home to an eclectic mix of iguanas, night-blooming cacti, and fabulous beaches. Today, it almost feels like a French-African outpost, albeit a very good one.

History
When Christopher Columbus happened upon the island in 1493, he named it for his brother Bartolomeo.

Beaches
Even during peak season, the beaches are never as crowded as most others in the Caribbean.
