Beaches

Although St. Maarten/St. Martin is home to approximately 36 beaches, each is truly unique with everything from calm, secluded coves and kid-friendly caves to rugged sandstone cliffs and high-traffic hot spots. However, their one commonality is fabulous, clean white sand and pristine, wildlife-filled water.

Copecoy Beach

Surrounded by rugged sandstone cliffs and void of any restaurants or bars, this narrow stretch of beach is perfect for a semi-secluded getaway.

Longue Bay

Known for its snorkeling and long, quiet beach, Longue Bay is an extension of Cupecoy, minus the cliffs.

Dawn Beach

A popular snorkeling and body surfers' hangout, this beach accompanies an offshore reef.

Maho Beach

Situated directly in the airport's flight line, Maho Beach is a popular spot complete with music festivals and beach parties.
