  • Saint-Martin ↗The island has two jurisdictions: Saint-Martin (France) and Sint Maarten (Kingdom of the Netherlands). Laws, currencies and emergency services differ on each side.
  • Saint-Martin ↗Ferries to Anguilla, St Barths and Saba are international trips: carry your passport.
  • Grand Case and Marigot (French side) ↗June to November is hurricane season with the peak in August to October: buy flexible fares and insurance that covers storm cancellations.

  • Marigot ↗The Simpson Bay and Sandy Ground bridges open for boats at set times: leave a buffer on airport days.
