Pic Paradis (Peak Paradise)

Rising from the center of St. Maarten/St. Martin, Pic Paradis, also known as Peak Paradise, stands as the island’s highest point at 1,391 feet (424 meters). This lush, verdant peak, thanks to its wet climate, offers a year-round green landscape. Visitors can climb to the summit and be rewarded with sweeping views of Orient Bay, Philipsburg, Simpson Bay Lagoon, Marigot, and the neighboring islands. The dense vegetation and panoramic vistas make it a notable natural attraction for hikers and nature enthusiasts.
