Sint Maarten is the Dutch southern half of the island of Saint-Martin in the northeastern Caribbean, sharing the land with French Saint-Martin. Famous for lively Philipsburg, its casinos, and the jaw-dropping plane-watching at Maho Beach, it packs two nations, two cultures, and countless beaches onto one sunny island - what more could you ask for!

When to go

December to April is the dry, sunny high season. Summer and early fall are warmer and cheaper but fall within the Atlantic hurricane season.

What to see and do

  • Watching jets land over Maho Beach
  • Strolling Front Street in Philipsburg
  • Crossing to French Saint-Martin for Marigot market
  • Snorkelling at Mullet Bay

Good to know before you go

The official currency is the Netherlands Antillean guilder, but US dollars and euros are used everywhere, and tips are appreciated. There is no real public transit and no ride-hailing: shared minibuses run along the main roads and taxis use set (unmetered) fares, so agree on the price first. A rental car is the most convenient way to hop between the Dutch and French sides, though many agencies add a young-driver surcharge under 25 and traffic around Philipsburg gets heavy on busy cruise days. English is spoken everywhere and no border formalities separate the two sides.

Entry requirements and health

No visa needed

Good news: with a Canadian passport you can just show up for a short tourist stay, no visa needed. Keep an eye on how long you're allowed to stay so your trip fits.

General orientation for a Canadian passport on a short tourist trip, not legal or medical advice. Confirm with official sources, and see a travel health clinic four to six weeks before departure.
