ST. MARTIN-GRAND CASE BEACH-CARIBBEAN SEA 4K WALKIN TOUR APRIL 2023 AMAZING BEACH

It is commonly believed that Christopher Columbus named the island in honour of Saint Martin of Tours when he encountered it on his second voyage of discovery. However, he actually applied the name to the island now called Nevis when he anchored offshore on November 11, 1493, the feast day of Saint Martin. The confusion of numerous poorly charted small islands in the Leeward Islands meant that this name was accidentally transferred to the island now known as Saint-Martin/Sint Maarten If you liked this video leave a like and subscribe to the channel! thank you so much!!!
