Concierge Blue recommends a day at the Butterfly Farm (La Ferme Des Papillons) on Le Galion Beach Road on St Martin. The butterfly farm is sure to please and educate children. We recommend early morning tours to witness the hatching and first flights of the butterflies. The farm is located near Le Galion beach offering a fabulous family day with one of St Martin's most family friendly activities juxtaposed to the best beach for families on St Martin.
The Butterfly Farm on St Martin consists of large meshed structures, which contain beautiful tropical landscaped gardens, exotic flowers and pools with Japanese fish. The atmosphere is tranquil, hypnotic music plays and hundreds of breathtaking butterflies from all over the world fly freely around.
An essential part of the visit to all the farms is the famous “guided tour”. Visitors are shown the evolutionary cycle from microscopic eggs, to strange and exotic caterpillars, pupae resembling exquisite designer jewelry. If you come early in the morning it is quite possible to see the birth of a butterfly and watch the newly emerged butterflies take their first flight!. The tours are also very amusing and an amazing source of butterfly facts and stories. Our guides will show you how to handle the butterflies with care and caterpillars if you dare!
Visitors are given a complimentary return ticket for the duration of their vacation, so don’t save the best for last!!. Wear bright colors and perfume if you want the butterflies to land on you!
The butterfly farm has a great shop selling a wide selection of butterfly-related gifts and souvenirs. Refreshments are available in the shady cafes outside. Open all year, daily from 9am until ...check local times!
