Full or half day, private charters and tour around St Martin / St Maarten or discover Anguilla, and jump on board to do shopping at Gustavia in St Barth.

We hired Captain Matt and his high speed boat to take us on a full day trip to Saint Barthélemy. His boat is gorgeous, with tastefully upholstered seats, extremely clean and very roomy!
We were extremely pleased with him and his services. Matt is a very careful, highly skilled captain, and his 3 x 300 HP outboard motor boat took us to the island of St. Barth from Grand Case Beach, in less than an hour, although the sea was very bumpy due to strong winds. His knowledge of the island permitted us to visit the best of the best there! On our way back, the winds were in our favor, so it only took us 45 minutes to return.
We highly recommend Cap. Matt from Caribbean Marines!
3. Plum Bay

Don't be intimidated by the fact that you have to go through the guard station to access the beach. My wife and I rented a car and were driving the island to explore, and the guard was courteous and clear in his instructions of where to go and where to park. [and where not to go!!] I believe he was "prepared" to deal with any problem in the community, but if your intention is to just find a quiet secluded beach then it's not a problem.
Hint: it's a beautiful spot, especially when the wind is out of the east making the Beaches on the eastern portion of the island rough and uncomfortable.

Clean calm water, no seaweed, lots of eateries and bars and some quirky shops, art shops and souvenir shops to look through. The beach is big, not as popular as Orient Beach but much nicer. Great beach to walk along and the swimming was lovely in the clam blue water. Beautiful!

Stopped in because of the reviews I had seen about this place, and I was not disappointed. Ravi was a great salesman, makes you feel like old friends in 5 minutes. Great quality, for a good price. If you find it cheaper it may not be real..... some of the places I was told have been know to put in fake diamonds, so be aware. JN has a great selection, you are bound to find something that will make your wife beam with pride.
7. Cupecoy Bay Beach
Overall Ratings

If you're looking for a beach that's quiet but not totally secluded, Cupecoy is a good choice. Its white sands are backed by low sandstone cliffs that have been eroded in such a way that they provide a run of small semiprivate coves.
Reviewed By Steve W - Tea, South Dakota, United States
Cupecoy is our go-to spot on the Island! Small beach you seldom have to share with more then 10 others. You can go nude or not and everyone is welcome! Dany is the best host there is and makes sure you are very well taken care of and will watch over your car. For those who claim it's no longer safe? I completely disagree, in all the years we've been going we've NEVER felt unsafe or threatened! It's a must see if you are on the Island!

This is a hidden gem at "Belmond La Samanna", from the moment you arrive you can feel the calmness.
Martine the Spa Manager, and her team of professional highly trained therapist, Jean Luc, Melanie, Hitomi ...sorry not to mention everyone... do a wonderful job of providing great services to the guest.
Hitomi my therapist is a gifted and dedicated person, she learned massages in Japan. She has taken what she has learned from her country at La Samanna Spa and the result is a fabulous and therapeutic treatment experience.
I definitely recommend that you try the "Asian Package" which includes Keiraku massage + Thai reflexology. A must experience and the most amazing spa experience.
While in Saint Martin do not hesitate, Belmond La Samanna Spa is a lovely way to spend your times. I will surely come back !

10. Maho Beach
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 4 reviews
Located at the end of Maho Bay and also very close to the airport where airplanes fly right above the beach.
Reviewed By LtColRiley - Rockwall, Texas
We visited in March 2018, and in spite of the devastation across the island including the vicinity surrounding Maho Beach (a.k.a. Airport Beach), this is a fantastic place to spend a half day. We were there on a Saturday afternoon, and there was plenty of sand for the number of tourists present... The water is beautiful... The crashing waves offer nonstop fun... Taking pictures with airplanes overhead makes for truly great "Kodak moments" and there's a restaurant & bar just steps away to satisfy your cravings. We only stayed an hour, but the entire family wants to return soon!
