St. Maarten/St. Martin is split down the middle: the Dutch territory of Sint Maarten to the south, the French collectivity of Saint-Martin to the north, two countries on one small island. Cruise passengers dock in Philipsburg on the Dutch side, minutes from beach clubs, duty-free shops, and Maho Beach, where jets clear the sand by a few feet on their approach to the airport. Cross into Marigot on the French side for the food.
St. Maarten / St. Martin in February offers pleasant temperatures, with highs around 82°F and comfortable lows near 72°F. Expect around 7 rainy days, typically brief afternoon showers rather than all-day rain. Morning excursions are usually the safest bet. Driest month, perfect beach weather
This is one of the most popular months to visit St. Maarten / St. Martin, so book shore excursions early. The top snorkeling spots and tours sell out fast. Lightweight layers work well: a light cardigan for evenings on deck and breathable tops for port days cover most conditions.
