About this place
Mullet Bay Beach is a wide stretch of white sand on the Dutch side of Sint Maarten, with clear water along its shore. Lounger rentals are available on the beach, making it straightforward to settle in for a few hours without needing to bring your own equipment.
The beach sits beneath one of the main flight paths into Princess Juliana International Airport, so planes pass at low altitude overhead on their approach. This makes it a known spot for watching aircraft come in close over the water and sand.
