You can get many bargains because prices are among the lowest in the region. Certainly much less than prices you pay in the U.S. and Canada. The best places to shop on the Dutch side are Philipsburg’s Front Street and Old Street, Simpson Bay, and Maho village. Wherever you go, you’ll find clothing, leather goods, jewelry, gold, watches, perfumes, cosmetics, china, and crystals from around the world.
All famous brand names are well represented. St. Maarten plays hosts to a number of fascinating art galleries and studios featuring the finest local, International and Caribbean works.
