Sint Maarten

Sint Maarten occupies the southern half of a small Caribbean island it shares with French Saint-Martin, a political division that makes for an unusually compact study in contrasts. Salt ponds and scrubby hills meet turquoise bays, and the air carries the combined scent of salt water and grilled seafood drifting from beach shacks and upscale restaurants alike.

About Sint Maarten

Overview

Sint Maarten is a constituent country of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, situated in the northeastern Caribbean between Anguilla and Saint Barthélemy. The capital is Philipsburg, Dutch and English are the working languages, and the official currency is the Netherlands Antillean guilder, though US dollars are accepted almost universally. The island's identity is shaped by its dual nationality, duty-free commerce, and a long tradition of welcoming seafarers.
