点评:This beach remains an in-the-know jewel on St. Maarten / St. Martin, and I do not get why but endorsing to keep it that way. Admittingly, the roads to reach it are notoriously poor (when are they ever going to fix that?) and need careful driving by night AND by day. That might keep not just residents who know such, but also transfers from hotels, yachts and cruise ships out. But the beach day you get in exchange for completing this near-Herculean drive are well worth it. And that is an understatement.
I guess what makes this beach special is that it has a bit of everything. A lush cove (I am going to skip the pristine white beach and turquoise waters because that is basically everywhere on island) , some beach bars but not too many, some snorkel options and water sports but no Orient Bay Beach level watersports mania, and overall, tranquillity as you want your beach bay to be.
All in all, a beauty. Having visited a good 100 beaches in the region, this one definitely ranks in the top 20.
翻译:这片海滩至今仍是圣马丁岛上一颗鲜为人知的瑰宝,我不明白为什么,但还是支持它继续保持下去。诚然,通往海滩的道路状况糟糕至极(他们什么时候才能解决这个问题?),无论白天还是晚上,都需要小心驾驶。这不仅可能让熟悉路况的居民望而却步,也可能让酒店、游艇和游轮的接送人员望而却步。但完成这段近乎艰辛的旅程,换来的海滩时光绝对值得。这还只是轻描淡写。
我想,这片海滩的特别之处在于它应有尽有。郁郁葱葱的海湾(我不会选择纯净的白色沙滩和碧绿的海水,因为这些基本上在岛上随处可见),有一些海滩酒吧,但数量不多,有一些浮潜和水上运动,但没有东方湾海滩那种狂热的水上运动。总而言之,这里宁静祥和,正是你想要的海滩海湾。
总而言之,这里美不胜收。我参观过该地区 100 个海滩,这个海滩绝对可以排进前 20 名。
