Marigot

Marigot, located in the northern part of the Island of Saint Martin, is a city with a typically Caribbean landscape which, due to the beauty of its landscape, unrepeatable experiences and its hidden treasures, is one of the most loved destinations by tourists from all over the world.

The landscape, with the crystal clear blue water on one side and the green of the hills on the other, makes it possible to participate in multiple activities, from the most common to the most extravagant, with only one watchword: UNFORGETTABLE. For sea lovers it is possible to enjoy a day of relaxation while enjoying a cocktail by the sea or inside one of the many structures along the bay where you can enjoy typical local dishes. The bays are also the ideal starting point for all those who want to discover the most hidden areas and experience an adventure that will leave you speechless.

For adventure lovers, know that on board a jeep or by renting an electronic buggy you can reach some tourist spots on the island and enjoy breathtaking views. One of these is the Marigot market. Ideal for trying the local cuisine in one of the stalls or for not missing the opportunity to fill your suitcase with souvenirs for friends and relatives, it is known to be the largest market in all of the Caribbean.

The island is not only beach, sea and relaxation, but also art is the master. In an area once devastated by the consequences of Hurricane Irma, today the well-known Wall of Art stands. It is a wall created by artists from all over the world where culture and art, colors and different sensations come together in a perfect mix. It stands out for being something different from the typical concept of a wall that we have in our minds: it is the first time that a wall is created as a sign of union instead of division.

The best way to reach Marigot is on board a cruise ship. Choosing a cruise that departs from Marigot or has the city as a stop is the ideal choice for those who want to discover the beauty of this landscape, experience unforgettable experiences and start exploring the surrounding areas.
