    Music festivals in deserts are so last year. Image everything you love about a good music festival—the incredible artists, the electric atmosphere, the non-stop fun—and ask yourself how could it possibly get any better? The SXM Festival answered our seemingly impossible question. Located in the heart of the Caribbean on the island of Saint Martin, the SXM Festival is the perfect mix of international DJs, blissful ocean views, and intimate jungle soirées. It's the only way to do music festivals: island style.
