I work on a boat that’s based here, so at the moment this is home. St M is a great island..but you have to work a bit harder to appreciate it fully compared to some other places. If you come here, escape your resort and go on a road trip. Rent a car (or, better still, a Harley!) and go explore. Leave the casinos and shops of Simpson Bay / Phillipsburg behind and head north.. you’ll find some great, secluded beaches, and see the real, undeveloped part of the island.
