2015 St Barths Bucket Regatta: Dates and Accommodations

The St Barth Bucket Regatta is held each year in March. For the owners of classic sailing vessels more than 100 feet long, it is the signature event of the regatta season. For more details about the event, read about the history of the St Barths Bucket Regatta.

The only thing more thrilling than sailing the St Barths Bucket Regatta, which will take place from Thursday March 19th to Sunday March 22nd, may be watching it from a vista in one of these villas. Pick a house in Colombier and you’ll see the boats charging in to the finish line, or choose a house in Toiny, and experience the rugged beauty of the island matched with the inspiring power of these classic boats. Our villa specialists will work with you to find the house the best suits your needs, while your concierge on island can arrange outings and celebratory dinners for your whole crew. Whether you’re a sailing aficionado or not, The Bucket is one of the most spirited times to be on island. See below for some ideas:
