Red Bay Beach, St. Martin

Report by Coccozella. Red Bay is quite a large beach with most activity at the east end where the public parking is. The sandy stretches are broken up with areas of rock outcrops and the surf is often quite vigorous. The two in combination can smash unsuspecting swimmers into the rocks. I know, because I came quite close. But it is a popular beach for families and there are a couple of pleasant beach-resturants serving visitors. The far west end of the beach used to see nudists, but now there is a large resort complex. I saw a couple of lone nudists at the half-way point.

Directions: Drive west out of Marigot for several miles until you see big white stones by an entrance road as the highway turns. Just inside is a rough parking lot. An attendant helps you find a spot to park, then tries to rent you chairs and umbrellas. An umbrella is good to have. Haggle with him. Facilities: No washroom that I saw. But they serve food and drink on the beach. History/Status: I suspect there is less nude use now than there was in the past. Accommodation: Lots on the island. Everything is within reasonable driving distance. Misc: Car theft is rampant. You WILL have your car broken into no matter where you park. Your trunk is not safe. If you leave anything in your car, say goodbye to it because you will never see it again.
