  • Enjoyed some snorkeling and swimming with just 2 other couples on the beach. Clear turquoise water and darker sand.

  • Snorkelling was amazing. However, there were 5 large cruise ships when we arrived (i came in as well) and hence got very crowded. Didn't do much.

  • We rented umbrella and lounges at the Belair Beach Hotel after a super friendly warm welcome. This little stretch of beach was perfect for the day. So quiet and beautiful water. We visited the Gingerbread Cafe where the food is excellent. Both beach and Cafe are a must-do while visiting St Martin.
  • Exceptional beach, on my top 3 favourites in St. Martin. Very powdery sand, so on a windy day it can be a little annoying. The side of the Divi Little Bay resort is the best part of the beach to settle by. You can get access directly thru the resort, but you need to park outside. There's an onsite shop for rental of water equipment like paddle boards and things like that.
