Maho Beach is a popular tourist destination located on the island of Saint Martin in the Caribbean. It is known for its close proximity to Princess Juliana International Airport, which results in large passenger jets flying low overhead as they come in to land. The beach's unique location, combined with its white sand and clear blue waters, make it a popular destination for tourists who are interested in aviation, as well as those who are looking for a relaxing beach experience. Visitors to Maho Beach can sunbathe on the sand, swim in the ocean, or watch as planes pass just a few hundred feet overhead. Despite the low-flying planes, the beach is considered safe and has been a popular tourist destination for many years.
