About this spot
Baie de L'Embouchure, also known as Galion Beach, is a protected lagoon inside Saint Martin's natural reserve south of Orient Bay. More than a kilometre long and 500 metres wide, this translucent shallow bay is shielded by a coral reef and catches consistent northeast to east trade winds peaking in the morning. Kiting is banned here by municipal ordinance — making it a calm and genuinely uncrowded sanctuary for wingfoilers away from the resort crowds.
