Body Recovered Near Cole de Azure: Investigation Underway St Maarten

The Police Force of Sint Maarten (KPSM) responded to a report of a body seen floating in the Cole de Azure area on June 10, 2025. Authorities launched an immediate response, dispatching both KPSM detectives and Coast Guard personnel to the scene. French law enforcement partners also joined the effort, reflecting the cross-border nature of the lagoon and the urgency of the situation.Upon arrival, Coast Guard officials and their French counterparts attempted to retrieve the body of an adult male from the water. However, the conditions at the initial location made recovery efforts challenging. As a result, the teams coordinated to move the body closer to Porto-Cupe-Coy. That area presented a safer and more accessible location for a successful retrieval from the lagoon.

According to preliminary information received from French authorities, the victim may have accidentally fallen into the water on June 9, 2025.

The discovery of the body the following day has shifted the investigation into a new phase.Currently, KPSM is working in close coordination with French investigators to determine the full sequence of events that led to the victim’s death. While initial findings suggest an accidental drowning, investigators have not ruled out other possibilities. Forensic examinations and witness interviews will help clarify the circumstances.Meanwhile, the Police Force of Sint Maarten extends its sincere condolences to the victim’s family and loved ones.
