Orient Beach St. Martin | Is This the Best Beach on the French Side?
Planning a St. Maarten cruise port beach day? Join us on an excursion from Philipsburg, Sint Maarten to beautiful Orient Bay Beach (Orient Beach) on the French side of Saint Martin - one of the island's most famous Caribbean beaches. Our unguided Orient Beach excursion included round-trip transportation from the cruise port area, reserved beach chairs and an umbrella, lunch at a beachfront restaurant, and about four relaxing hours on the beach. If you're researching things to do in St. Maarten, the best St. Martin beaches, or a beach excursion from the St. Maarten cruise port, this video shows what an Orient Bay beach day is really like. Orient Bay Beach is known for its long stretch of soft white sand, clear turquoise Caribbean water, mountain backdrop, beach clubs, restaurants and water sports. Often called the "St. Tropez of the Caribbean," it combines beautiful scenery with a lively French Caribbean beach atmosphere. We also respectfully explore one of the things Orient Beach is famous for: its European-style beach culture. Topless sunbathing may be encountered along the main beach, while the traditional clothing-optional/naturist area is at the southern end near the former Club Orient area. In the video, we walk the beach and show the transition from the north end toward the central and south sections so cruise visitors can better understand what to expect. Is Orient Beach worth visiting on a St. Maarten cruise? Watch our complete beach experience and decide for yourself.
