Happy Bay Beach

St Martin

Located between Friars Bay and the Bay of Grand Case, Happy Bay Beach is a secluded paradise with soft sand and warm azure waters. There is no road access, and the only way to reach the beach is by taking a 15-minute scenic hike through the hills (you can park at Friars Bay) or by boat. It’s a quiet and pristine place, void of facilities, restaurants and bars, although there is a small shack selling BBQ meats. Bring a picnic, drinks, and some snorkel gear for a relaxing beach day away from the crowds.
