St. Maarten - Airport by the Beach

So before the honeymoon... we heard that there was this beach right by the airport in St. Maarten that "we just HAD to check out". We aren't "airplane watchers" or enthusiasts by any means, but this was plane watcher paradise. The planes land RIGHT over the beach... it seems like 20-30 feet above people's heads. Some of the planes also take off right there, and the jets are so strong they blow people on the beach into the water!


We took a short video of a plane coming in so you can really see how crazy it was!

I showed Tim this video and he totally thought it was a joke. I had to tell him that video jokes like this aren't really your style. It's real. It's awesome!
