St. Maarten Port Summary

St. Maarten's/St. Martin's rather unique division has resulted in the 2 halves of the island having unique cultures to enjoy and experience. Thus, visitors can discover 2 worlds in one while vacationing here. Approximately 32,000 people live in Dutch St. Maarten and 25,000 live in French St. Martin.

The Dutch half of the island is highly developed, and known for its beautiful scenery, unique jewelry and inventive alcoholic drinks. The French side of the island is recognized more for its natural wonders, remaining a bastion of fashion, luxury shopping and beaches.
