Beach of the Week: Baie Rouge/Red Bay

This week’s featured beach is Baie Rouge, also known as Red Bay. It is one of the longest and most scenic stretches of sand on St. Maarten. Located in the Lowlands area, Baie Rouge offers a mix of calm waters, striking coastal views, and a peaceful atmosphere that makes it a favorite for both locals and visitors.

It’s a great spot for snorkeling, especially near the rocky area at the north end of the beach. For those who swim or snorkel a little farther in that direction, there’s a hidden surprise – a secluded beach tucked just behind the rocks, perfect for a quiet escape.

Baie Rouge is found in the Lowlands and Marigot region of the island. Whether you’re looking to explore underwater life or simply relax on the sand, Baie Rouge delivers a laid-back, unforgettable beach experience.
