Maho Beach is a beach on the Dutch side of the Caribbean island of Saint Martin, in the territory of Sint Maarten. It is known for being across the Princess Juliana International Airport. It is a popular place for tourists and plane watchers, who visit the beach to watch planes land at the airport.

In July 2017, a 57-year-old woman from New Zealand was killed after strong winds caused by a plane taking off, pushed her off from the fence and forced her head to smash into concrete.[1]
