Maho Bay, next to Princess Juliana airport on St. Maarten. The place is world-famous for the view of airliners on approach. As you can see, there’s only a few feet between the beach and the runway. The runway is also not terribly long and has a mountain at the other end, forcing the jumbo jets (especially) to do some fancy maneuvering during landings and takeoffs.
Holy Crap!!!!!!!!!
