From the Saint Martin World / Places
Happy Bay Beach
Happy Bay rewards a short trail walk from Friar's Bay with a less developed stretch of coast. Bring what you need and leave enough daylight for the return.
Saint Martin / Your next move
Bring this chapter to life.
Keep exploring Saint Martin with our travel partners.
The change from Friar's Bay's beach establishments to Happy Bay's natural surroundings is part of the visit. The small bay, hillside vegetation and open sand feel removed from the island's busier waterfronts. Treat the approach as a walk as well as a beach stop, with no reliance on beach facilities.
What to look for
Coastal trail approach from Friar's Bay
Undeveloped sand backed by vegetation
Useful to know
Wear shoes suitable for the trail and carry water.
Keep enough daylight for the walk back; do not rely on facilities at the beach.
