St. Martin is located at the heart of the Antilles arc, north of the Lesser Antilles island chain. The Atlantic Ocean is to the east, the Caribbean Sea is to the west.
St. Martin is a logical next step for vacationers who have yachted in the Caribbean once or twice. Winds are moderate, the waters are generally calm, and spectacular spots like the islands of Pinel and Tintamarre, or even Anguilla to the north or St. Barts to the south, are a short distance away.
St. Martin is the smallest island in the world to ever have been partitioned in two. The French and the Dutch share the north and the south, respectively. Like siblings, each has its own character and personality, but they share the same origin. The border is virtually imperceptible. and people cross back and forth freely.
OUR BASE – Oyster Pond Marina
The Oyster Pond Marina straddles the French and Dutch sides of the island. You will find an extensive choice of restaurants and a wide variety of shops, as well as all the staple stores for supplies.
SNORKELING & SCUBA DIVING
The surrounding waters and corals are teeming with marine life. And for avid scuba divers, there are myriad underwater shipwrecks to explore.
The waters and seabed are part of the island’s natural marine and coastal reserve.
