“Less is more” is a myth once you visit the Caribbean Island. Its thought-provoking cultural experiences, awe-inspiring natural phenomena and upmarket shopping will certainly want you to stay more days exploring the island.
Where to visit
The best way to start your journey in the Caribbean will be to explore the eastern side. It will offer a two-nation vacation experience as it is divided between the Kingdom of Netherlands and the French Republic. Get ready to satisfy your senses with sailing races, designer boutiques, mesmeric beaches and romantic restaurants.
Must-visits
What better way to start your journey than spending time on a beach? Maho beach is an excellent choice to spend a relaxing time amidst breathtaking views. If you are in the mood to explore natural wonders, catch a ferry to Pinel island where you will come across shallow waters and palm-fringed sands ideal for snorkeling. A visit to Fort Amsterdam will unveil the island’s Dutch heritage.
How to travel
The most popular island-hopping option would be to book a cruise. Alternatively, you can charter a boat and it is not that expensive if you go for a day rental. There are plenty of Caribbean inland flights available such as interCaribbean Airways, to make your journey faster and more convenient.
Safety tips
It is best to plan your island-hopping at the beginning of summer or in spring when the weather is calm. Avoid August to October as it is the peak hurricane season. Don’t forget to pack mosquito repellent and sunscreen in your baggage.
