Experience St. Maarten
- The smallest island divided between two nations
- A vibrant, multicultural nation where French and Dutch influences combine
- Admire brightly coloured and decorated heritage homes
- 37 beaches dot the coastline perfect for diving, surfing or relaxing
Known as the "Friendly Island," throughout this small and serene destination you'll find endless escapes from the everyday. Technically half France and half The Netherlands, it offers a fascinating blend of French, Dutch and Creole traditions. Dive into the water and admire local marine life through a snorkelling mask or challenge yourself to a thrilling jet-skiing or wakeboarding adventure along St. Maarten's picture-perfect coast. History geeks will be fascinated by the island's unique history. There's no physical barrier between France (St. Martin) to the north and The Netherlands (St. Maarten) to the south and it's easy to explore both contrasting halves of this fascinating Caribbean island in one day. A not to be missed experience is standing on Maho Beach as 737s graze the sands as they land at the International Airport. On both sides of the island you can discover lush vegetation and tropical wildlife with a leisurely hike or exciting zipline or mountain bike ride. Rhythm and dance both sides of the island that live happily together, whether it's through soca, salsa, samba or the iconic steel drum band.
