Highlights of St Martin
Gourmet restaurants on the French-side, particularly in Grand Case and Marigot Bay; Creole cuisine in beach shacks and local cafes; zouk music, a kind of Creole music unique to the French Caribbean; Carnival at the beginning of Lent (taking place over Easter on the Dutch side); 40-plus beaches; fantastic beach bars, particularly on Friar’s Bay, with great full-moon parties; local speciality of sticky ribs and a beachside lolo shack; catamaran trips to smaller satellite islands such as Ilet Pinel, Tintamarre or Prickly Pear all the way out near Anguilla; Sunset Beach Bar on Maho beach at the end of the airport runway, not for the faint-hearted (bikini contests a regular feature), but a real St Maarten’s institution; the Oyster Pond, a quiet half-French, half-Dutch harbour in the east of the island; historic towns of Philipsburg (Dutch side capital) and Margiot (French side); diving Wreck Alley, including a 200-year old British frigate.
Travel around St Martin
Although the island is divided into two separate land claims, there are no official borders, so you can travel to both parts quite freely. Buses are by far the cheapest method of transportation, but with no set schedules, it’s a bit hit and miss. Few official bus stops, so you need to flag them down. Taxis are good for short distances, hire cars better if you want to explore the island further. You can also take trips by boat and plane from St Martin to the nearby islands of Anguilla, St Barts, Saba and Statia.
