Grand Case
Fronted by a sweeping curve of beach the little fishing village
of Grand Case, at the northern tip of St Martin, is famed for its
fine foods and distinctive style of architecture. The small wooden
houses are decorated in gingerbread style and painted pastel
colours. Numerous good restaurateurs have chosen to congregate in
the town's main street, which has become one of the finest dining
centres in the eastern Caribbean.

English.

On the Dutch side the currency is the Netherlands Antilles
Guilder or Florin (ANG), where one guilder is divided into 100
