At Red Baron Charters, we believe that St. Maarten/St. Martin is more than just a destination; it’s an experience of a lifetime. Our twin-island paradise, located in the heart of the Caribbean, offers breathtaking natural beauty, and one of the most spectacular ways to enjoy it is through the magical moments of sunset and star gazing. As seasoned sailors and passionate lovers of this island, we are excited to share our insider tips on the best places to soak in the beauty of the skies, both during the golden hour and under the twinkling stars.
1. Baie Longue (Long Bay) – A Sunset Lover’s Dream
Baie Longue, located on the French side of the island, is one of our top picks for watching the sunset. This secluded, crescent-shaped beach is famous for its long stretch of soft, white sand and calm waters. As the sun dips below the horizon, the sky is painted in hues of pink, orange, and purple, creating a mesmerizing display. The serene atmosphere, coupled with the gentle sound of the waves, makes Baie Longue a perfect spot for a romantic sunset.
When you join us on a private catamaran charter, we can anchor just off Baie Longue, offering you an unobstructed view of this natural wonder. Enjoy a glass of champagne as the sun sets, and let the tranquility of the moment wash over you.
2. Maho Beach – Where Sunsets Meet Aviation Thrills
Maho Beach is famous for its proximity to the Princess Juliana International Airport, where planes fly just a few feet above the beach before landing. But did you know it’s also a fantastic spot for sunset watching? The combination of the vibrant sunset and the thrill of watching airplanes overhead makes Maho Beach a unique experience.
From the deck of our catamaran, anchored nearby, you can capture the perfect photo of the sun setting behind a plane as it descends onto the runway. This is a must-see for anyone visiting St. Maarten, and with Red Baron Charters, you’ll have the best seat in the house.
3. Tintamarre Island – Stargazing Under Pristine Skies
Just a short sail from the main island lies Tintamarre, an uninhabited island that offers one of the best stargazing experiences in the Caribbean. The lack of artificial light on Tintamarre means that the night sky is truly something to behold. The Milky Way stretches across the heavens, and countless stars twinkle above, creating an awe-inspiring spectacle.
We love taking our guests on overnight charters to Tintamarre, where you can lie on the deck of our luxurious catamaran, surrounded by the peaceful sound of the ocean, and gaze up at the stars. It’s a moment of pure connection with nature, and one that you’ll remember forever.
4. Cupecoy Beach – Dramatic Cliffs and Unforgettable Sunsets
Cupecoy Beach, with its dramatic sandstone cliffs and golden sand, offers one of the most picturesque sunset views on the island. The cliffs create a natural amphitheater, where you can sit and watch as the sun sets in a blaze of color over the Caribbean Sea.
Our catamaran can take you close to these cliffs, allowing you to enjoy this stunning view from the water. The combination of the rugged coastline and the vibrant sunset is nothing short of breathtaking.
