Saint Martin

Saint Martin occupies the northern portion of a small Caribbean island shared with the Dutch territory of Sint Maarten — one island, two governing systems, no hard border between them. The French side is quieter, with hillside villages, open-air markets, and a culinary scene shaped by both Creole and metropolitan French traditions. Salt ponds, turquoise bays, and scrubby green hills define its compact interior.

About Saint Martin

Overview

Saint Martin is a French overseas collectivity situated in the northeastern Caribbean, roughly 300 kilometres east of Puerto Rico. Its capital is Marigot, and French is the official language, though English and Papiamento are widely spoken. The euro is the currency on the French side, despite the island lying outside the European Union's customs territory. The island's character blends French administrative life with distinctly Caribbean rhythms.
