Île Tintamarre is a small
island with an area of approximately 0.8
square kilometers. It is situated in the
Caribbean Sea, about 3
kilometers from the island of
Saint Martin, and is administered as part of the
French overseas collectivity of
Saint Martin. The island currently has no human occupants, but has been inhabited in the past. Between 1946 and 1950, it was the base for the airline
Compagnie Aerienne Antillaise, which flew planes from the island's 500-
meter airstrip (no longer existent.)
