This is me ...
… and this is Sint Maarten …
The 87 km2 island is divided roughly in half between France (53 km2) and the
Netherlands Antilles (34 km2)
Border between the Dutch and French part
The short length of the main runway at Princess Juliana International Airport, and its position between a large hill
and a beach causes some spectacularapproaches …
The main reason I am visiting the island reguarly ...
… is that my (not so) little brother lives at the island.
So now to the scuba diving part ...
... after suiting up ...
... taking the boat to the spot ...
... and jumping in the water ...
... St. Maarten offers an amazingunder water experience !
Astonishing coral ...
Barracudas ...
Moonfish ...
Caribbean Lobster ...(Metanephrops binghami)
Spotted EagleRay …
(Aetobusnarinari)
... and many ...
... many other fish !
I also had my first encounter with a shark ...
... there she was ...
... swimming towards us ...
... here my dive buddy notices
her.
She was not big, but still it was an awesome experience.
