A wrong turn led us up to this beautiful viewpoint! 

If you're ever in St.Maarten, we highly recommend renting a quad (ATV) to see the island, they're street legal there.

Your Saint Martin Vacation Itinerary

  • Day 1: Most visitors arrive here via Princess Juliana International Airport in Philipsburg, in neighbouring Sint Maarten. Freshen up in your hotel in Saint Martin’s capital, Marigot, before checking out attractions like the West Indies Mall, Marigot Market and Fort Louis.

  • Day 2: Pick up the keys to a rental car and cruise around the island. Stop off at Loterie Farm then head to Quartier D’Orléans, a seaside village on the eastern coast.

  • Day 3: Don’t head home without savoring a sumptuous meal in Grand Case, known for its gourmet French cuisine. Time your visit to catch a glimpse of the elusive “green flash” as the sun sets over the ocean.
