Cupecoy Bay / Beach, St. Maarten/St. Martin
TripAdvisor Traveler Rating:
TripAdvisor Popularity Index:
#10 of 85 attractions in St. Maarten/St. Martin
If you're looking for a beach that's quiet but not totally secluded, Cupecoy is a good choice. Its white sands are backed by low sandstone cliffs that have been eroded in such a way that they provide a run of small semiprivate coves.

Maho Bay, St. Maarten/St. Martin
TripAdvisor Traveler Rating:
TripAdvisor Popularity Index:
#11 of 85 attractions in St. Maarten/St. Martin
Maho Bay, on the southwestern shore, is Sint Maarten's main resort area. It feels a bit like the Las Vegas Strip: while little more than a block long, it's dense with multistory buildings housing exclusive jewellers, boutiques, art galleries, restaurants and a huge resort and casino. Maho Bay has a nice enough beach except that it's at the very end of the airport runway. The area is even marked with a sign warning beach goers that 'low flying and departing aircraft blast can cause physical injury!'
Attraction type: Bay; Neighborhood
- Traveler Reviews:

- May 17, 2008 "Unbelievable"
- Apr 9, 2008 "Nice beach near the airport for your last hours on St Maarten"
- Mar 16, 2008 "Nice beach near SXM"
