Looking the other direction on Cupecoy Beach we see the beautiful Shore Pointe Villas which pretty much sits on the border that divide Dutch St Maarten from French St Martin. You can see that people with common sense set up their chairs back against the wall, well away from the sometimes unpredictable surf! There's not much room to get in the water here but just on the other side of that big spray there is sand beach where you can head out about 15-20 ft and float leisurely on the swells. Come in any closer, though, and you'll be thrown around by the waves. This was also one of my favourite beaches. Being on the west and leeward side there was no wind and the sun was hot.
