Well yes, but who is going to close that beach, and many will say why!, when something terrible happens they will do something mean wile, nothing is going to change unfortunately. 
Beautiful beach by the way!

| That is for real and it's so awesome. I've been there before and I stayed at the Royal Islander hotel, which is right next to the airport. You can stand on the beach and watch the huge jets go right over your head. Also when planes take off, the start at the beach end and go the other way, blowing all the wind off the beach. You can stand behind the taking-off planes and get blasted by it, or hold on the fence. With the really big planes like Air France or KLM it hurts a little. Hope this was informative and I hope you go to St. Maarten sometimes. |

I am a native St. Maartener and can assure all the doubters out there that those photos and videos are legit. Although it is an everyday thing for us locals, it never gets old... AND the tourists absolutely love it.
Right now the new airport is being built and I hope that part will not be changed. It would be a shame after all these years. It is a very cool thing to experience.
If you are still in doubt, well, I guess you will have to visit sometime and find out for yourself, hehe... Now that is St.Maarten of the Netherlands Antilles at Princess Juliana airport.
Food, Carnival, Summer weather @ Christmas time.
Service at banks is very slow...
There is more but you will have to find out for yourself. Enjoy your stay if you visit! |

| I was at the Sunset Beach Bar this afternoon when a 747 landed. Then got sandblasted and nearly knocked when a 757 took off. Going back tomorrow! |
