BAIE ROUGE BEACH

Baie Rouge Beach is the most popular and active beach in Terres Basses. This is because the beach is easily accessible to the public. While all beaches are public in St. Martin, this beach is the only one in Terres Basses that doesn’t require going through a security gate. The sand here is deep and soft. Because of this, it’s the perfect beach to lay out on. However, it makes it difficult to walk on and can be quite the beach workout!

Swimming at Baie Rouge Beach

Just like all the beaches in St. Martin, the swimming really depends on the weather. However, at Baie Rouge beach you can normally find a spot to enter and swim comfortably. One end of the beach is not directly in front of any villas, which is where most people gather to swim.
