Whats the Best Beach !!!

[Scuba]

We are leaving on Saturday 2-19-05 What is the best beach to go to on St. Marrten ? Some thing easy from the ship.

Orient Beach! The beach is absolutely breathtaking! We go there everytime we are in St. Martin!

How do you get there from port? Will a taxi work? How far from Port???

There are plenty of taxis both at the pier and at Orient Beach. It's the most popular beach on the island. It's about 20 minutes or so from the port I guess - I never really paid attention.

Hi Amy,

 

I'm wondering what your favorite area of Orient Beach is. We're about to go for the second time.....but last time we just stayed where the cab dropped us off. Is there a particular beach bar you favor?

Is this beach free and If I am traveling with 3 children ages 9, 10, and 13, is their a better place than another for beach facilities, etc..?
