Experience the thrill of watching, hearing and feeling a commercial airplane as it lands merely feet above you while lounging along the white sands and turquoise waters of Maho Beach. Join a friendly and informative local guide for a 35-minute narrated motor coach ride across the Dutch side of St. Maarten. Upon arrival at Maho Beach, you’ll enjoy over three hours of free time at this popular seaside locale. Perhaps you’ll sunbathe, swim in crystal-clear Caribbean waters, or soak up the tropical beach bar and restaurant scene. You can walk to nearby Maho Village to try your luck in the casinos or shop for souvenirs. But beyond all those exciting activities, the most unique aspect of this beach is its proximity to Princess Juliana International Airport, as one of its runways is situated right next to the beach. Daily arrivals and departures are posted in local bars, and you’ll have the chance to witness low-flying airliners touching down less than 100 feet above the ground directly over fellow beachgoers. This is a once-in-a-lifetime type of beach day — and one you won’t soon forget.
