  Baie Rouge

  STOP 1 — Baie Rouge (Red Bay) The engine cuts. Silence. In front of you, a crescent of sand blushing pink in the Caribbean light This is Baie Rouge — one of the most beautiful and untouched beaches on the island. You drop anchor, slip into the water, and the world slows down. STOP 2 — Baie aux Prunes (Plum Bay) Few people find this one. That's exactly the point. Tucked between two cliffs at the western tip of les Terres Basses, Plum Bay is the beach the island keeps for itself. No restaurants, no chairs, no crowds. This is where presidents have vacationed. Where millionaires build their hidden villas. And today, it's your private stop. STOP 3 — Baie Longue (Long Bay) Baie Longue is the longest beach on the island — and somehow, one of the least crowded. Turquoise water, no waves, no noise. Just an endless stretch of fine sand flanked by some of the most exclusive real estate in the Caribbean. La Samanna, the legendary 5-star hotel, crowns one end.

  Simpson Bay

  Lagoon Crossing by Jet Ski — Simpson Bay to Marigot Hop on your jet ski and experience one of the most iconic rides on the island — a full crossing of the Simpson Bay Lagoon, one of the largest natural lagoons in the Caribbean. Your adventure starts at Simpson Bay on the Dutch side, where you'll pass under the famous drawbridge and enter the open waters of the lagoon. Ride through calm, turquoise waters surrounded by luxury mega-yachts, mangroves, and breathtaking views of the island skyline. As you cross from the Dutch side to the French side, feel the vibe change — you'll arrive at Marigot, the charming capitale française of Saint Martin, with its colorful Creole waterfront, Fort Louis overlooking the bay, and the famous marché local. What makes this ride unique: Cross an international border on a jet ski Flat, protected lagoon water — perfect for all levels Stunning views of Princess Juliana Airport and surrounding hills Arrive directly at the heart of la ville française

  Maho Beach

  A steel monster — 130 tons, 70 meters of wingspan — appears out of nowhere, barely 50 meters above your head. The engines blast heat that makes the air shimmer, the noise hits you in the chest like a punch. You feel the vibration in your bones, in the water itself. This is not a movie. This is not a dream. This is Princess Juliana Airport — where the runway literally ends at the edge of the beach, just meters from the waves you're riding right now. From your jet ski, you have the best seat in the world : you watch the aircraft descend in low approach over the palm trees, skim above the heads of swimmers on the beach, then touch down on the tarmac in a screech of tires barely 200 meters away. Nowhere else on Earth will you see this. Nowhere else do aviation and the ocean merge into a single, breathtaking picture.

  Marigot

  STOP — Marigot(french capital) You cut the engine. The jet ski glides silently into the bay. In front of you, Marigot — the soul of the French side. No concrete towers, no casino neon. Just red-roofed Creole houses climbing the hillside, a waterfront lined with fishing boats, and above it all, the stone silhouette of Fort Louis, built in 1789 under King Louis XVI to guard this very bay. You step ashore and the island changes language, changes smell, changes pace. Spices curl through the air. Someone is grilling snapper. A woman in a madras headscarf arranges mangoes, guavas, and rhum arrangé on her stall — one of over a hundred at the Marigot Market, the largest open-air market in the Caribbean. Lobster, conch, freshly caught fish, tropical fruit, handmade crafts. This is not a tourist show. This is Wednesday morning in a French Caribbean town, and you are the only one who arrived by jet ski. Above the market, Fort Louis waits. A hundred steps carved into the rock. And from the top.

  Grand Case

  STOP — Grand Case (the gourmet capital of the Caribbean) The boulevard appears around the bend — a single road hugging the shoreline, pastel-colored houses on one side, the calm bay on the other. You cut the engine and let the jet ski drift. Then you smell it. Smoke. Charcoal. Caramelized ribs. Grilled lobster. Cajun spices riding the sea breeze. Welcome to Grand Case — a village so small you can walk it end to end in ten minutes, and yet known across the Caribbean as one of the finest places on Earth to eat. This is the home of the lolos — open-air barbecue shacks that have been feeding locals and travelers since the 1980s. No tablecloths. No dress code. Plastic forks, paper napkins, and a grill that never goes cold. On it: whole red snapper, grilled lobster, poulet colombo, ouassous, ribs slow-cooked in secret spice blends that nobody writes down and nobody forgets.
