Saint-Martin
The gourmet French side — Grand Case lolos, protected reefs, and barefoot chic.
We're still writing the full Saint-Martin travel guide. In the meantime, here are the essentials.
The French half of the island and the culinary capital of the northeastern Caribbean, Saint-Martin swaps cruise bustle for the restaurants of Grand Case, the protected reefs of the Réserve Naturelle, and quiet coves like Happy Bay and Pinel Island. Same island as Sint Maarten — just softer, slower, and a little more Provençal.
