There is just something about the Caribbean that evokes thoughts of exotic food, pristine beaches and five star hospitality. The islands offer unequalled holidays and they cater for every conceivable taste and preference. Most of the St Maarten activities are centered upon the water. No wonder, since the beaches are among the best the world has to offer. There are much more than water activities, though. Everyone is guaranteed a grand time, even if you do not enjoy water sports.

Many people will be surprised to learn that this island is home to one of the top tennis academies in the world. They boast superb facilities and they offer top notch training programs. Visitors to the island can book state of the art courts for training sessions or simply for a few relaxed games. The academy hosts a shop that can provide equipment to the most discerning customers.

Those that enjoy nature and hiking with a little bit of adventure thrown in will just love the Loterie farm and fly zone. One a sugar cane farm, this venue now offers breathtaking hikes with magnificent views of the sea and Marigot. There are also zip lines for both adults and youngsters. These activities are especially popular with cruise ship passengers visiting the island.

The island is home to some of the most spectacular beaches to be found anywhere in the world. They are kept in excellent condition and most visitors enjoy lounging around while being served drinks and snacks by efficient waiters. The sea is crystal clear and the sound of the waves act as a hypnotic agent to lull sun worshippers to sleep.

There is something for everyone, including the adventure seekers. Jet skis and wave runners can be hired almost anywhere. Even better, those that want to see the earth from above can book a parasailing experience. Wind surfing, surfing and body surfing is extremely popular. Kite surfing is not for everyone but those that want a little bit of adrenalin will simply be enthralled.

It would be unthinkable to visit the island without enjoying at least one of the many boat trips on offer. Some trips offer a leisurely cruise at sunset, allowing guests to enjoy a sunset drink while enjoying the spectacular sunsets. For the more adventurous there are deep see fishing expeditions, diving excursions or snorkeling on one of the many reefs. Most hotels can provide advice on where and when to book.

Kids also have a lot to do. The Kids World Amusement Park in Cole Bay is a particularly popular attraction. Here the young ones and even the not so young ones can enjoy a very wide variety of activities. There is horse riding, carousels, go karts, a host of physical activities and an outside playing area. In fact, no child should ever be bored when visiting St Martin.

St Martin offers visitors an amazing variety of activities. The locals are friendly and they do everything possible to make visitors feel welcome. The islands in the Caribbean have a special charm. A holiday there will most certainly turn out to be the experience of a lifetime.
