Low-flying Aircraft Spotted at Maho Beach, Saint Martin
Famous Maho Beach located on the French Caribbean Island of Saint
Martin is one of the most popular tourist attractions and perhaps the only
beach in the world where aircraft can be viewed so closely thus making it an aviation
geek paradise. But sometimes people standing on the edge of the beach can
actually be blown into the water because of the jet blast due to its short
runway length of just 7,150 feet (2180 meters).
Watching aircraft closely has become the most popular activity
at Maho Beach and in spite of all the danger thrill-seeking tourists cannot
stop themselves from plane spotting. Interestingly, some restaurants and bar owners
displaying Schedule and Timetable of daily arrivals and departures so the
tourist standing on the beach never miss a single airline passing over their
heads. Below are some thrilling shots of people enjoying Plane Spotting at Maho
