About Marigot Seaplane Base

Marigot Seaplane Base is a public seaplane landing area on the waterfront of Marigot Bay, serving Marigot, the main town and capital of the French side of Saint Martin. Its IATA code is MSB.

Located at the edge of central Marigot, the base is used primarily by seaplane operators for short inter-island and leisure flights, complementing the scheduled services at Grand Case Airport and Princess Juliana International Airport nearby. Because it sits directly in town, onward travel to hotels, shops, restaurants and the marina is short and convenient.

It is a small facility rather than a conventional airport, with no large terminal complex or runway. Seaplane operations take place from the sheltered waters of Marigot Bay, and passenger handling is compact and operator-dependent.

Marigot is connected to the rest of Saint Martin by road, and taxis, rental cars and private transfers can be arranged from the bay area for travel to Grand Case, Orient Bay, Simpson Bay, Philipsburg and other destinations across the island.
