These were taken around November of last year. My family and I were there during Thanksgiving break and enjoyed the place very much. Should you ever be in a situation where you don't know where to go for vacation, visit this place.
A few of these shots were taken at right outside St. Maarten Int'l Airport. For those who are not familiar with this place, this airport is famous for having its runway right behind Maho beach. Pilots would fly approaches that take it right over the beach, creating thrilling landings and great opportunities for great pictures. There are quite videos showing this. Planes also take off right behind the beach, and the resulting jetblast is directed right over the beach. Adventurous people would often stand behind the airplane, and try and see how long they can withstand the blast. I tried this and it was not a pleasant experience. You are pretty much being sandblasted by the jetblast and beach sand.
Take a look at this if you don't know what I am talking about.
