About St. Eustatius, Netherlands

Built on a West Indies dormant volcano, the Quill, is a little Dutch island called St. Eustatius. It has a population of more than 4,020 in an area of only 12 square miles. This island was all the rage back in the 18th century. Being a major player in the trade industry, it was the Caribbean’s most vital Dutch Island. The old ruins of that era’s warehouses can still be seen – some underwater. The island maintains a skilled workforce with very little unemployment. Most workers are employed either privately by NuStar Energy or by the government.

Popular Destinations in St. Eustatius

Looking for activities once your private jet arrives in St. Eustatius? Dive sites over sunken shipwrecks and coral reefs, volcanic sand beaches, and hiking trails through Quill National Park are only a few of this island’s points of interest. Below are a number of others:

Fort Oranje

Fort Oranje

Fort Oranje: Cobblestone parade grounds, triple bastions, and a mighty, cannon-equipped citadel all contribute to this extensively restored fort with its sweeping views and deep-seated history. Built in 1629, this French garrison was originally made of wood but was crafted from stone in 1703 by the British.

The Government Guesthouse: Visitors will know they’re in the right place when they see the fanciest car on the island, The Mercedes Benz belonging to the lieutenant governor, parked out front. This now home of the government’s headquarters has an upper floor housing the courtroom and a ground floor housing the offices of the commissioners and lieutenant governor. EU funding allowed the fine old 18th-century building of wood and stone to be completely renovated in 1992. The place used to be a guesthouse which, back in the 1920s, is how it got its name.

Smoke Alley Bar and Grill: Show up for the prime location and stick around for the food and dancing. At the curve into Lower Town and directly over the ocean, this commanding nightclub/restaurant has a pirate theme, loud music after dark, open-air, group bench seating, and on Friday nights, a DJ. A diverse crowd, including the area’s medical students, gathers here regularly.

Duggins Supermarket: For those doing their own cooking, or looking for a light snack, American brand names, and cheap European fare is available here. Hoards of Kittitians stock up on supplies here after boating over from ‘next door’. Should Duggins already be closed for the day, try the tinier place around the corner and up the street a bit.

Dutch Reformed Church

Dutch Reformed Church

Dutch Reformed Church: Even though its roof collapsed back in 1792’s hurricane, the 1755 building’s 60cm thick walls still stand. Singing praises to the heavens has never been so easy as in a structure with no roof. Many of this island’s past prominent citizens are at their eternal rest on these grounds.

Miriam Schmidt Botanical Gardens: The Kitchen Garden, Palm Garden, and the Sensory Garden are the completed sections in this work-in-progress. Much of the typically lush, local flora can be viewed in this semi-wild setting that grows out of the side of the Quill volcano. Also, check out the views from Lookout Garden and the wildlife along Bird Observation Trail.
