You actually can see a very nice sun rise from the Towers Resort in Maho if staying close by.I was surprised when we stayed there a few years ago.

I would think the sunrise view would be spectacular on the road as you come from Marigot towards Orient and come over that curving hill and first see the whole sea/Orient area...or, Orient itself for a ground level view.
I prefer sunsets...same view in reverse and you don't have to get up as early <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />

I don't think you will be able to see a sunrise per se at NBBC, as I think you will be facing west, so you should be able to see sunsets. Which, of course, I much prefer sunsets, myself! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />

We get beautiful sunrises every trip from our seventh floor balcony at the Towers. One thing though that I've noticed is the skies start to lighten usually around 5 - 5:30 but where I am situated, the actual sun usually breaks through the clouds and over the hills right around 6 ish and it can be absolutely gorgeous or a total non-event and really depends on the day and your luck. But if you do get lucky, OMG are they gorgeous! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />

OMGoodness, Leona. Those are beautiful and just a small part of why I don't mind being an early riser, particularly when in St. Maarten. We share a love of that view, for sure......TY for sharing them....... But now it's gonna' be that much harder to wait until April! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />
