I want to thank you for the answer, as well, Randy (and others). Had forgotten about that experience, and will be going to SM in September. Will try to make it over there during our stop. Again, thanks!

Maho Beach in Saint Maarten.

[DMW/LAW]

It is actually Maho Beach. Sunset Beach Bar is the bar/grill that is right on the edge of the beach. They actually have the airports control tower on the speaker system and you can here the pilots talking to the tower as they approach. It really is a cool pace to hang out and have a drink. The under tow at the beach can be quite strong. If a large jet is taking off away from the beach (the jet thrust pointed at the beach itself) be warned....it can and will sandblast you if you are on the beach! You can do a "google" and just type in Maho Beach and you can see ton's of pictures, including links the the webcams at the Sunset Beach Club bar.

If you go to YouTube, you can find lots of videos of the planes landing right overhead.

I checked out the live camera there, and man, the beach has eroded away to nothing. Hope it comes back soon
