Best Beach in St Maarten?

Hello! Cruising to St. Maarten in November with pre-teens. Best beach excursion to book? Would love recommendations. Looking for a quiet, clean, not too crowded beach, not too far away. Our options are; Orient Beach, Kim Sha, Buccaneer, Mullet Bay, (not interested in Maho). Thank you!!

The only beaches I've been to in St Maarten are Orient Beach (French side) and Great Bay Beach (Dutch side).  I prefer Orient Beach, because I enjoy swimming there due to the robust surf and waves.  There are plenty of bars and facilities there, but it should be noted that on far end of Orient Beach is Club Orient which is clothing optional, so with the teens, you might want to keep that in mind.

Great Bay Beach is easier to get to get to from the cruise pier via water taxis.  There is plenty to do in Phillipsburg as well. 

I cannot comment on the other beaches you have mentioned.
