Creator's Key Takeaways

Today, Lydia and I are on the island of St. Martin. We're in for an adventure.

We've been here before. St. Martin is divided into two parts, a Dutch side and a French side.

Today, we're going to see what's in the port and around the city right here, and we're going to go shopping and look around.

There are at least five ships in port today that I can see just from standing here.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Explore the port area to see what's available just steps from the ship.
βœ“Consider shopping and looking around the city if you're curious about the port.
