A view of the Orient Bay

Orient Bay (French: Baie-Orientale) is a coastal community and beach on the French side of the island of Saint Martin in the Caribbean. It lies on the east coast of the island.

Until 1985 the area was undeveloped. Damage caused by Hurricane Luis in 1995 was quickly repaired.

The beach has become the most popular beach on the island. A section of the beach at the south end is used by naturists.
