A LITTLE LOCAL CONTEXT

A small place for big island stories.

This museum, created by Les Fruits de Mer, explores the natural and cultural heritage of St. Martin. The setting encourages a self-guided visit, with outdoor interpretation and gardens that connect plants, people and place. It is a thoughtful counterpoint to a beach day and a rewarding introduction for families. Check the museum’s own visitor information before setting out, particularly if you have questions about access, facilities or a planned group visit.
