My DH and I are going on the Magic 14th of December, and I am looking for advice on great places to duty free shop in St Maarten. I know it's a great port for duty free shopping and I just wondered if anyone had opinions on where exactly to go! I'd love to find some great deals on jewelry or anything fun while in that port. Thanks for the help!

I would recommend Boolchands for jewelry/watches. i bought a Concord watch there last December for an unbelievable price, hundreds less than the best Internet price.

I don't know if the prices then reflected a drop off in business due to 9/11, but i'd definitely check them out.

Lots of shops in Marigot, which is the capital of the French side. You'll have to take a taxi from the port.

Little Switzerland is another fine jewelry shop. We got some nice Waterford crystal there.
