I never saw this tree with full foliage, It just never gets a break from the salty tradewinds. However, the way it's branches are split down to the base and its weird foliage makes this a interesting scene.

Made the picture at Mullet Bay Beach.

Located on the Dutch side. They say this is one of the prettiest beaches in St-Maarten but my favorite ones were Le Gallion & Dawn Beach. But in all fairness you can't go wrong...they are all beautiful with their own uniqueness.

Pity about the glaring light....

My beach of choice about 10 min walk from hotel. I could watch the flights going in to SXM in case anything extra special went in

Yup, just another day at Mullet Bay in St Maarten
