ST. MAARTEN ST. MARTINA little out of the blue.Your island starts here
Nature & small wonders

Look a little closer.

There is a whole island in the details: a bird, a leaf, the shape of the coast. Begin with local knowledge and tread lightly.

A few places
to begin.

Save the ones that catch your eye. Your island notebook will keep them together.

01
French St. Martin culture

Amuseum Naturalis

At the Old House in French Quarter, nature and heritage share the same conversation. Outdoor exhibits and gardens invite you to notice the island’s wildlife, building traditions and everyday knowledge. Come curious, and give the stories time to settle.

02
French St. Martin area

French Quarter

Also known as Quartier d’Orléans, this community rewards curiosity about the island beyond its coastline. Begin with Amuseum Naturalis, where nature and heritage offer a thoughtful introduction to the place, its people and the stories carried between generations.

03
Dutch St. Maarten area

Cupecoy

Sandstone gives this corner of the Dutch side its unmistakable silhouette. Little coves and warm-toned cliffs make Cupecoy a place for close looking: the curve of a rock, the changing water, the color of late light.
