It's a tiny Caribbean island about twice as large as Heathrow airport, but with billionaire yachts packing the harbour and celebrities strolling the sands, you'd be forgiven for thinking St Barths is in fact the centre of the universe.
The island - which is French territory - has become the go-to destination for the rich and famous to soak up some sun this winter, with yachts owned by the likes of Roman Abramovich, WhatsApp founder Jan Koum and shipping billionaire Eyal Ofer anchored just off shore. David Geffen's huge yacht was also pictured there in recent days.
Meanwhile the likes of Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez have been pictured frolicking in the waters, while famous faces from Mike Tyson to Scott Disick, and Dua Lipa to Victoria Silvstedt have been spotted on the beaches.
Here, MailOnline gives you a rundown of anyone who's anyone on or around St Barths this winter...
The billionaire boat club
Hugging close to the shoreline near the capital and main port of Gustavia, the creme de la creme of the world's superyachts form an ultra-exclusive club - and billionaires need not apply.
Dominating the horizon is Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich's $700million Eclipse yacht, complete with nine decks, 18 cabins for guests, 100 crew, a 50ft swimming pool that can be converted into a dancefloor and space to store three helicopters. Moored just alongside is Le Grand Bleu, a $150million vessel that Abramovich used to own before it was sold to his best friend and business partner Eugene Shvidler in 2006.
Jan Koum, founder of WhatsApp, owns two boats currently moored off shore - the $220million Moonrise and the $20million sister ship, Power Play. Other notable owners include Ann Walton Kroenke, heiress to the Walmart fortune, and John Caudwell, British billionaire owner of Phones4U.

The celeb sun-seekers
While a bevvy of big names have been spotted on the beaches of St Barths in recent days, perhaps the biggest of them all was Jeff Bezos - Amazon founder and world's second-richest man with a fortune of around $195billion.
The 57-year-old was spotted lounging in the sunshine with Sanchez as the pair spent the day on a tender vessel - a much smaller pleasure boat usually attached to a larger ship.
On December 26, the couple took a boat out with a group of friends, and spent some time laying out on a raft, where a bikini-clad Sanchez cuddled up to her shirtless beau who matched her in a pair of black swim trunks.

Moonrise is owned by billionaire Whatsapp founder Jan Koum, who has reportedly been dating supermodel Evelina Mambetova for seven years (pictured together)
Founder of WhatsApp, Jan Koum became a member of the billionaire club in 2014 when Facebook bought the popular messaging app for $22billion in cash and stock.
Koum resigned as CEO of WhatsApp in 2018 and stepped down from the board of Facebook as well, and is now worth an estimated $12billion having given more than $1billion to charitable causes.
The tech billionaire has reportedly been dating 30-year-old Crimean supermodel Evelina Mambetova since 2014.
Launched just last year, the 328ft Moonrise - worth an estimated $220million - features eight state rooms with space for 16 guests, with windows running along both sides of the vessel for sweeping sea views, along with accommodation for 32 crew.
Features include a helipad located on the front teak deck, a beach club at the rear with space for entertaining guests on the ocean, a full gym and interiors by French designer Remi Tessier.

3. Eclipse, Roman Abramovich
Best-known as the owner of Chelsea FC, Roman Abramovich is part of a super-exclusive club of Russian oligarchs who made a fortune when the Soviet Union's assets fell back into private hands after 1991.
Worth an estimated $14.5billion, he holds shares in steel manufacturer Evraz and mining company Norlisk Nickel, after selling considerable stakes in oil giant Sibneft and energy firm Gazprom for $15billlion back in 2005.
His yacht, the 533ft Eclipse, was the world's longest pleasure vessel when it launched in 2010 - it was overtaken in 2013 by the 593ft Azzam, thought to be owned by Dubai's royal family - and cost a reported $400million, though its current value is estimated at $700million.
The Eclipse's main features are space for three helicopters: A helipad at the front of the vessel that lowers into a storage bay, allowing a second helicopter to land on top, and another helipad on the sundeck at the rear.
Inside, there are nine decks with 18 guest cabins and space for up to 100 crew. The main feature is a 50ft indoor swimming pool with a blue granite bottom that can be raised up to floor level so it transforms into a dance floor.
There is also a full gym, spa area, massage room, beauty salon, sauna, two plunge pools and a 'beach club' area at the back, which features a full kitchen in addition to a pull-out barbecue and pizza oven.

4. Le Grand Bleu, Eugene Shvidler
Best friend and business partner of Roman Abramovich - whose own boat is parked nearby - Eugene (Evgeny) Shvidler is worth an estimated $2billion thanks to shares he owns in steel-maker Evraz and mining company Norlisk Nickel, where Abramovich also has shares.
His boat, Le Grand Blue, used to belong to Abramovich having first been commissioned by American businessman John McCaw in 2000. Abramovich bought the vessel some time in the early 2000s, before selling it to his friend Shvidler in 2006.
The 370ft yacht has its own helicopter pad, water purification system and two additional boats, known as tenders. It is worth an estimated $150million, according to Superyacht Fan.

5. Lady Jorgia, Patrick Dovigi
A former Canadian hockey goalkeeper, Patrick Dovigi became an entrepreneur while still playing sport - working at a company leasing construction equipment and cars, and then at an investment firm.
In 2007, he founded his own company - Green For Life Environmental Inc - an environmental waste management firm and steadily grew the business by acquiring other companies so it is today worth around $14billion.
Dovigi, who continues to be the firm's president and CEO, joined the billionaire club in 2017 following a series of major acquisitions and is thought to be worth around $1.1billion.
His yacht, the 243ft Lady Jorgia, was built the same year Dovigi became a billionaire and cost some $90million.

Power Play, Jan Koum
A second yacht owned by the WhatsApp founder, the 182ft Power Play is considerably smaller than his other boat - Moonrise - and is designed as a support vessel, though it can also venture out on its own.

Power play can sleep up to six guests in three suites and has accommodation for 10 crew, though most of its space is devoted to activities that complement the Moonrise.
It comes equipped with a fully kitted-out dive centre including room for equipment and oxygen tanks, including special kit that allows divers to visit environmentally sensitive areas.
