Things to Do  

Beach Walking

Beach Walking, Marigot

 Martin_S. Says:  The beach near Marigot is not for swimming as it has some dangerous undercurrents. But walking along the black beach is a real change from the white sand you may be used to. 

Hotels  

Hibiscus Inn: Primitive and quiet

Hibiscus Inn: Primitive and quiet, Marigot

 Martin_S. Says:  The Hibiscus Inn would be somewhere between a camping site and a bed and breakfast. No hot water, no fans, no refrigerators, no cold water, no baths, no air conditioning. What it does have is great views, jungle to your door, a river to swim in and just let flow over you.... 

Restaurants  

The waterfront in Marigot: Talk about fresh seafood

The waterfront in Marigot: Talk about fresh seafood, Marigot

 Martin_S. Says:  This is not properly a restaurant, but if you go with whomever is doing the cooking wherever you stay, its fun to see your food "on the hoof" and fresh. This was a Blue Marlin they caught, it took some 6-7 guys to get it out of the boat. After wards they started to cut it...

Warnings Or Dangers  

Iguana's On The Road

Iguana's On The Road, Marigot

 Martin_S. Says:  When driving on the roads you may find Iguanas crossing, stop and give them the right of way. 

Off The Beaten Path  

Walking Trip to the Twin Falls

Walking Trip to the Twin Falls, Marigot

 Martin_S. Says:  The "Twin Falls" is not on the maps, there is no entrance sign and no tourist shops, just find one of the locals who knows where it is and you will be in the "REAL JUNGLE". In the pic you can see the entrance to the trail, it is not marked at all. 

Swim the Pagua River

 Martin_S. Says:  Take some "easy" time to just relax in the Pagua River. 

Pagua River

Pagua River, Marigot

 Martin_S. Says:  Talk a walk IN THE RIVER. Yes swim or walk in the Pagua River, just near Marigot. It was directly adjacent to the Inn we stayed at. Clear, cool and safe.

Flowers

Flowers, Marigot

 Martin_S. Says:  Don't miss the flora around the island, this is a pic of one of the typical flowers. When we arrived at the Hibiscus Inn, the people there had set out some flowers to greet us. This beautiful flower was one and we just could not believe that it was "real", we all thought it... 

Friendly people

Friendly people, Marigot

 Martin_S. Says:  When staying at the Hibiscus Valley Inn we met Marie who was the cook and housekeeper. Try and meet some of the people from there, they are great. Marie was always there with a helping hand, some information or just an ear to listen, it was great having her.

 I took a Bus tour of Marigot and St. Maarten. Marigot town was especially great to be in. I bought a very nice Golf shirt there.
