Good winds and medium seas allow sailors to enjoy exhilarating open-water cruising. This is the ideal next Caribbean sailing destination after the BVI. It provides a good mix of island hopping and open blue water cruising. From there, venture out over longer passages (a few hours of sailing) to the sophisticated shores of St. Barts and St. Kitts. Or enjoy short hops from one fantastic beach and snorkeling spot to the other around St. Martin itself.
St. Martin is divided between two principalities: French in the North and Dutch in the South, which makes for a perfect combination of Caribbean style with European food and flair.
