Explore Sint Maarten and Saint-Martin

The Drake is in Beacon Hill on the Dutch side, with the beaches, villages and restaurants of both sides within reach. Start with Simpson Bay Beach, aircraft spotting at Maho Beach, or dining and nightlife in Maho Village. On the French side, try the French-Caribbean restaurants and waterfront lolos in Grand Case, browse the markets and cafés in Marigot, or spend an afternoon at a beach club in Orient Bay.

On the water, choose a sunset sail, guided snorkeling trip, private catamaran or yacht charter. Ask about day trips to Anguilla for beach time, St. Barts for Gustavia and waterfront dining, or Pinel Island and Tintamarre for swimming and snorkeling. Saba is another option for hiking and diving. Routes depend on weather and operator schedules.

On land, explore the Pic Paradis area, ask about hiking and ziplining at Loterie Farm, or take in the views at Rainforest Adventures at Rockland Estate. Other options include golf at Mullet Bay, guided horseback riding at Seaside Nature Park and a family visit to Parotte Ville bird sanctuary. Ask about dates for the St. Maarten Heineken Regatta, Carnival, SXM Festival and seasonal culinary events.
