Hey guys, saw these pics on Instagram and really wanna check it out when I go. All I got from the post was that it's a natural pool. Any help would be appreciated.

They might be on SXM, but to me this looks like one of the Natural Pools on St Barth.

Ahh you are correct, thanks for pointing that out!

There is a natural pool on St Maarten if it wasn’t affected by Irma. It’s a bit of a trek but secluded and beautiful. Do a search for “Devil’s Cupper” and you should find pictures and a link to a map that will give you the location. It is on Back Bay.

Ohh that looks cool! Always down for a hike, thanks for the info.

Could be the natural pool below Point Blanche on SXM.

The 3rd photo looks like the Baths at Virgin Gorda..

Looks like St. Barthelemy to me, too. Never saw anything close to that on SXM, but there are many places that I have not yet visited. Where you really see these kinds of natural pools is on the Balearic Islands of Spain.

Over the years we've traveled much of the island but have never seen any areas that remotely resemble these photos. Not saying they aren't on SXM but we haven't found them. There is one spot on the rocky point of Mullet on the Maho side of the beach (as opposed to the Cupecoy end) and set back from the ocean a bit where my kids used to dive into a beautiful turquoise pool but it wasn't remotely like the photos.
