Beaches
Discover the world-famous beaches of St Maarten. (Look out, there are a couple of clothing optional ones around).
| Cupecoy is Dutch St. Maarten`s semi-official nude beach. Sandstone cliffs give Cupecoy beach a dramatic golden backdrop, unlike any other beach on the island. |
| Maho Beach has become one of the island`s leading attractions: this is where the runway almost meets the beach, separated only by a narrow road and a flimsy fence. The location is also a great place to watch the sunset. |
| Just down the road from Maho Beach, this is a surfers paradise, when the conditions are "right". Mullet Bay Beach borders on the island`s only 18-hole golf course and is very popular with locals, especially on the weekends. |
| Here you`re invited to rid yourself of those tell-tale tan lines. You can swim and sunbathe unencumbered in your birthday suit. On the southern end of Orient Beach you`ll find the clothing optional beach of the presently closed Club Orient Nudist Resort. |
| One of St. Martin`s few existing dirt roads leads to Friar`s Bay Beach. Since this beautiful bay is well protected from the wind and heavy surf, it is ideal for the whole family. |
