Due to the unique proximity of low-flying airliners arriving and departing from Princess Juliana International Airport St. Maarten, the location is popular with plane spotters. This is one of the few places in the world where aircraft can be viewed in their flight path just outside the end of the runway. Watching airliners pass over the beach is such a popular activity that daily arrivals and departures airline timetables are displayed on a board in most bars and restaurants on the beach.

Yeah, but bad for your hearing. 🙉

I sure hope you and your wife are getting to travel and that this is a recent photo, Joop. It tells a nice story and there are beautiful shades of blue.

Unfortunately this was some time ago when we flew via St. Maarten to Saba Island to visit our daughter.
