Marigot Bay is one of those anchorages that sailors talk about for years afterward. Ringed by steep green hills and coconut palms, it's sheltered, quiet, and postcard-perfect. The bay famously hid an entire British fleet from the French in the 18th century — the sailors tied palm fronds to their masts and disappeared into the scenery. Today it's a serene spot with a marina, a few good restaurants, and the kind of stillness that's hard to find anywhere else.
