Maho Beach in Sint Maarten is renowned for its unique proximity to the Princess Juliana International Airport. This stunning Caribbean beach offers visitors the rare and thrilling experience of watching airplanes fly extremely low overhead as they approach the runway. The sight of massive jets descending just meters above the sand is a major draw for aviation enthusiasts and tourists alike. Despite the excitement, caution is advised due to the powerful jet blasts.
