Explore: Oyster Pond – St Martin
General Info
COVID-19: CLOSED PORT
- Closed from 31 January, 2021, unless you have a compelling reason and must provide evidence.
- See Biosecurity for full details.
Description:
A very protected harbour on the east coast of the island. The border between Sint Maarten (to the south) and St Martin (to the north) runs along the coast around the bay. So the town is in St Martin and the marina and bay itself are in Sint Maarten.
Cruiser Highlights:
Cruising guides, apps and happy-hour chitchat can all be good sources of information for sailors in the Caribbean. Tune into the St. Martin Cruiser Net at 07:30 on VHF Channel 10, Monday to Saturday.
Position:
18° 03’13″N, 63° 00’47″W. (entrance to the bay)
Docking
It is possible to anchor in the bay. However, the entrance channel is not buoyed and does not appear to agree with Navionics charts. The north side is reported to be shallower that shown on charts – two meters – whereas staying well south of the shown channel indicated around six meters. Keep a safe watch.
The marina was destroyed during Hurricane Irma in 2017 and in 2019, cruisers report no signs of any re-building.
