Philipsburg

The Port of St Maarten is one of the most beautiful ports in the Caribbean. It is also one of the few ports in the region that can accommodate the Harmony of the Sea, which is currently the largest cruise ship in the world.

#Lunchtime Buddha Beach Bar. Great relaxing lunch spot on the water.
Harbour Point Village is a small shopping arcade of 12 shops and 12 market-stalls in an architectural atmosphere of vintage St. Maarten landmarks. It pretty much feeds off the Cruise Ships and is a touristy place for catering to those who simply must buy something at every port... even if it was made in China and shipped to St Martin.
