Landing at St. Maarten

2:45 pm

This is an island that I’ve always wanted to go visit for one reason: To see the huge jets landing only mere inches away from the beach!

The airport has a particularly short runway that ends just 40 feet from beach, leaving large planes just barely enough room to land. So they have to come in low, directly over the beach.

Even found an YouTube video of a landing:
