Extreme Beach

Princess Juliana Airport is located on the island of San Maarten (St. Maarten), which is part of the Netherlands Antilles in the Caribbean Sea. The airport is famous because it is located next to the beach, just above which fly planes entering the airport. Sometimes it seems that before they can even reach a hand!

This airport is unique and is a global center "Pleynspottinga" (passion surveillance aircraft boarding). Runway airport is very short (its length is 2130 meters) and therefore are forced to go on the planes landing just a hundred meters from the beach where vacationers sunbathing tourists. For more thrills gives knowledge that the airport is not equipped with an automatic landing, so the aircraft was landing under manual control.
