Re: 2nd Best Beach
It is clear now. I had just never heard of it.
I just looked at several of the hotel web sites to get a view of the ocean. Looks wonderful.
I also scanned around the area on mapsquest. I can see what you mean, the area has alot of diversity.
Looks like a great destination. When is the best time to go. I like low population density and high water temp.
Thanks- Bob

Re: 2nd Best Beach
Deb,
It is nice to here someone else who claims Baie Longue as their favorite. I help rebuild La Samana after a hurricane a few years back and really came to love Baie Longue.
Lauren is referring to the beach that includes the towns of Biarritz and Sainte Jean-de-Luz. It is located on the Atlantic near where France and Spain border. Lauren's prose, and surveying this area on the web has really sparked my imagination. It is on my short list of places to go in the next couple of years.

Re: 2nd Best Beach
Would always go to Baie Longue when staying a day on St. Martin before traveling on to St. Barts. A great beach, but because of the crime on this island we felt vulnerable unless you walked down near La Samana. Prime area to get mugged when walking from the parking area to the beach...would walk quickly and always look over our shoulders.
