Gustavia — Shell Beach · Greek-Mediterranean
Shellona (Shell Beach)
Greek-Mediterranean beach restaurant on Shell Beach, walkable from Gustavia harbour — the chic lunch that doesn't require a car.
€€€
Shellona colonised Shell Beach, the small shell-covered cove five minutes' walk from Gustavia's yacht harbour, with a Greek-Mediterranean menu and a bohemian-luxe mood that fills every lunch in season. Grilled fish, taramasalata and a rosé list run the show; afternoons drift into music without becoming Nikki-level party. Because it is the only beach walkable from town, it is the natural lunch stop between morning boutiques and afternoon swim — reserve for lunch, always.
Must try
Whole grilled catch of the day, watermelon feta salad
