The Dutch Caribbean enjoys a high standard of living with all the amenities of modern living. All the amenities without the crime, the cold, the poverty, the pollution or the instability.

The island enjoys over 350 days of sunshine a year and is lush with vegetation, as the volcanic soil is highly enriched for growing everything from coffee to mangoes.

The island has a rich colonial heritage and is also a major Caribbean Eco centre. At the heart of the island is the extinct volcano "the Quill". Nature lovers wil enjoy bird watching in the Quills rain forest while also enjoying Statia's world class dive sites.

The Netherlands are to dissolve the former Dutch Caribbean island state of the Netherlands Antillies.

The island of St. Eustatius (Statia) is to be re-united under direct Dutch rule and operated as a municipality of Holland. Statia will therefore enjoy a relationship with Holland and the EU as currently enjoyed by Guadaloupe.

Reunification with Holland and the EU is targeted for July 2007 - Dec. 2008; with plans under way to also expand the islands airport strip by an additional 1000 feet. (304.8 m)
