Special Highlights |
|||||
 |
Explore The Island The deceptively small Dutch St. Maarten presents some interesting contrasts for the explorer. Wide beaches along the coast, full of sunbathers and surfers, seem a far cry from the quiet country roads and small towns of the hillsides. |
||||
 |
Boating & Yachting St. Maarten is one of the Caribbean's leading sailing venues, playing host each year to the St. Maarten Heineken Regatta and offering plenty of stunning anchorages.
| ||||
 |
Parasailing & Sky DIving Orient Beach is the place for parasailing. This two mile long beach offers water sports locations next to the many restaurants right on the beach. |
||||
 |
Hiking The best way to really appreciate the island is by exploring on foot. You'll meet the local people, learn the customs and above all see the scenery, flora and fauna that you will never see from the main road. |
||||
 |
Horseback Riding Several operators offer horseback riding excursions across the countryside of the interior and along the coast. |
||||
 |
Jetskis & Kayak Fast becoming a popular sport on the island. Tri-sport offers kayaks for rent fro the ocean or for exploring Simpson Bay Lagoon, a large enclosed salt-water lagoon. |
||||
 |
Shopping St. Maarten enjoys an unusual status as a commercial center: it is among the world's few duty-free ports.
