I’ve been coming to St Martin for years (before and after hurricane Irma) and everything about this island is magic. From the beaches to its people, a more beautiful island can’t be found! The Wall of Art was built partially to show the people’s strength and endurance after the tragedy of Irma but also to give locals and visitors a sense of hope and to feel as though you are truly part of this magical place. The Homage Hotel (formally Mercure) and its staff helped to organize this amazing art installation and it’s such a lovely part of the experience as you travel from one end of the island to the other. It’s an incredible piece of art but more importantly it symbolizes the island mentally of community and support! A must see!!!!

Beautiful beach - blue water and white sand. What you expect a Caribbean beach to look like! Very little seaweed. As the beach drops off pretty rapidly so you need to be careful about getting in and out of the water and watch the wave sets carefully.
5. Maho Beach

Located at the end of Maho Bay and also very close to the airport where airplanes fly right above the beach.

For those with an adventurous spirit, you have to visit the world famous Malo Beach. I wanted to experience the close landing jets and more importantly the jet blast of takeoffs...a bucket list item! Powerful blasts are few and far between since many were hurt and from what we heard, some killed. We waited several hours and saw many low flying jets. As for take-offs: We knew we were in for a trouble when the pilot waived at us as he readied the jet for take-off. He gave full thrust and we were instantly tossed like rag dolls. Apparently this does not happen often any longer since some died. “Get hammered by a jet engine at the St. Marteen airport blast fence ✔️.” Overjoyed!

8. Orient Bay Beach

Reviewed By ommegang - Bloomington, United States
We definitely saw some lingering signs of the destruction wrought by Irma, but the rebuilding seems to be in its last stages. This is already a beautiful beach and it will only get better over the next few months and years. Given the number of facilities and their good reputation we expected it to be super-busy but it wasn't. We did visit in the low season, but the beach is very long and very wide, with lots of room to stroll up and down, enjoy the water, the white sand, and the scenery. Great bars and restaurants too! - I saw some reviewers complain about the seaweed and thought it was rather silly because all natural beaches can have some seaweed. However, a record-breaking sargassum seaweed bloom is taking place and it is definitely affecting these beaches.

Great beach with amazing snorkeling. If you’re there on a cruise it’s only $5 per person each way. You can rent two chairs and an umbrella for $15. Snorkeling is best off two the left along the rocks and steep rock wall. Great variety of fish. Beach is fabulous with a sandy bottom in most places. Variety of stuff to rent for fun

We enjoyed chairs and an umbrella on our day at Great Bay Beach. Kids and parents enjoyed the calm waters, there were many activities you could do. Mom slipped off for a little shopping. Picked up Subway for an affordable lunch. Neat to watch the water taxis, jet skis and cruise ships in the area.
