Orient Bay Beach

Orient Bay, French side of Saint-Martin

Saint-Martin's star beach

Stretching for nearly two kilometers along the east coast of the French side, Orient Bay (Baie Orientale) is undoubtedly the most famous and liveliest beach in Saint-Martin. Its pristine white sand, brilliant blue waters and wide range of activities make it a must-visit destination.

Orient Bay captivates with its diversity: trendy beach clubs, water sports (jet ski, kitesurfing, paddleboarding, parasailing), beachfront restaurants and a festive energy that lasts from sunrise to sunset.

The beach is bordered by Pinel Island, reachable in just a few minutes by boat, offering a peaceful haven with crystal-clear waters and small seafood restaurants.
