Saint-Martin was discovered by Christopher Columbus November 11th, 1493, Saint-Martin Day.
In 1648, during a historic running race, the island was divided into a Dutch part and a French part (3/5th of the territory), division marked by a rather symbolic border.
Today, the agreement still holds, and the monument erected in 1948 to commemorate the three hundred and fifty years of cordial entente is one of the most photographed places on the island.

Called Soualiga (salt land) by the Arawak Indians, Saint-Martin is a multi-facetted land. It is one of most active destinations of the Smaller Antilles, and the gastronomic capital of the Caribbean. (More than 350 restaurants).

Between Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean Sea, Saint-Martin enjoys seashores we all dream of. The beaches are 36 in number, and answer the criteria most coveted by visitors.
If each beach has a very specific nature, they all enjoy tropical weather conditions, white sand, coconut palms and the Caribbean Sea’s turquoise waters..
