Marigot St. Martin

Marigot, St. Martin
30-31 December

Dear Travelers,

The French and Dutch have shared the small Caribbean island of St. Martin/St. Maarten for over 350 years. Marigot, capital of the French side, is pleasing mix of Gallic elan and Caribbean spice. The aroma of fresh baguettes and croissants fill the morning air, the perfect accompaniment to a mug of dark, steaming coffee. The latest fashions decorate the windows of smart boutiques, while the open-air market reveals a vivid assortment of fresh produce, fragrant spices and local crafts. For a change of peace, cross over to the Dutch side of the island, St. Maarten and visit its capital, Philipsburg.

See you there…
