St. Martin’s Best Waterfront Bars: The Ones Our Readers Nominated
63 bars. One island, two nations, and no agreement whatsoever about where to have a drink. When we asked ALL AT SEA readers to nominate the best waterfront bar in the Caribbean, St. Martin / Sint Maarten sent in more names than anywhere else — from the beach shacks of Orient Bay to the yacht-club decks of Simpson Bay Lagoon.
Here they all are, A to Z. Readers are still voting, and the winners are named on 1 December 2026. If your favorite is on the list, give it a vote. If it isn’t, the ballot takes write-ins until voting closes.
63 bars nominated by our readers on Sint Maarten / St. Martin. Voting closes 30 November 2026 — see the live standings.
