PLACES OF INTEREST
St. Maarten is the southern part of the island of St. Martin which is divided in two. St Maarten is Dutch whilst
St Martin, the other part is French. Magnificent beaches dot the landscape of both parts of the island but in
addition to the beaches, there are other interesting areas to explore.
Casinos
Casinos are only located on
the Dutch part of the island,
St Maarten but even so
there are 14 different ones
to play in. The ones in the
capital Philipsburg are more
orientated to the cruise ship
passengers but the ones
in other places like Maho,
Cupecoy and Simpson Bay
cater to more long term
visitors to the island and so
provide entertainment and
stay open until the early
hours of the morning.
