- Visit the famous Maho Beach to watch planes fly directly overhead as they land
- Explore the cobblestone streets and colonial architecture of Philipsburg
The smallest island divided between two nations – France and the Netherlands – St. Maarten offers blend of cultures and landscapes to discover. You can easily explore the two sides of this small and picturesque island, from the colonial-style architecture in Philipsburg on the Dutch side of the island to Fort St. Louis in Marigot on the French side, which was built by the famous French king Louis XVI. Make sure to visit the world-famous Maho Beach, where you can watch planes fly directly overhead to land at the airport on the other side of the beach. The island’s coast offers ideal water sports conditions, with activities ranging from jet-skiing to wakeboarding and snorkelling – perfect for underwater explorers. There’s plenty to discover on land as well, whether you want to zipline from the top of the island’s highest point at Sentry Hill or embark on an ATV excursion through the island’s wilderness.

Travel tips: Canadian devices use 120 V and will work with 110 V. Many resorts have 120 V plugs. For older devices, items using motors or heating (heated beauty tools, electric toothbrushes) and three-prong plugs we recommend bringing an adaptor with voltage conversion. The French side of the island uses 220 V and will also require an adaptor with voltage conversion.
