Recommended Travel Adaptor for Saint Barthélemy
After testing numerous adaptors during real trips, one stood out. It performed best on safety, value and usability. This is the adaptor we suggest you take.
Didn’t pack an adaptor? You can still grab one when you arrive. Still, it’s better to bring your own than risk paying too much for something unreliable.
Saint Barthélemy is often visited alongside Saint Martin and Guadeloupe. Worth checking plug info — even within the Caribbean, things can differ.
Sockets in Saint Barthélemy
In Saint Barthélemy, you’ll find Type C and E plugs and sockets.
Type C
Type C sockets have two round pins and no grounding. Unlike Type G, they take a slimmer plug without an earth pin or fuse.
Type E
Type E sockets have two round pins and a hole for the socket’s earth pin. UK Type G plugs do not fit into Type E sockets.
Do You Need a Voltage Converter?
Converters only matter when voltages clash. In Saint Barthélemy the supply is pretty much the same as the UK’s, so you’re sorted.
Before using your gadget overseas, glance at the voltage mark. Anything showing ‘100–240 V, 50/60 Hz’ will be fine without a voltage converter.
Top Travel Essentials to Take With You
Beyond your adaptor, a few clever travel items can make life on the road so much easier. A luggage scale saves you money, a power bank keeps you powered up, and packing cubes keep your clothes tidy. They’re simple, practical, and genuinely useful.
