TravelTalkOnline Forums Travel and Vacation Forums St. Maarten - St. Martin September On Island

We’ve gone many times in September over the years to celebrate our anniversary. The beaches are always open and there are more than enough restaurants and bars to keep us satisfied. Many island places do shut down in September for their annual vacations but for every place that closes I’m betting there are at least two or three others to choose from.

That said, it is about the heart of the hurricane season so if you’re going at that time it’s a smart idea to purchase trip insurance jic. We’ve never experienced bad weather and the only rain we’ve seen has been minimal and usually at night so it never interfered with our trip.

We always found the island to be a little slower paced, fewer people everywhere but still enough to be comfortable and the traffic a lot more tolerable in September.
