Sint-Maartensdijk () is a village in the Dutch province of Zeeland. It is a part of the municipality of Tholen, and lies about 16&nbsp;km west of Bergen op Zoom.

== History == Named after Saint Martin, Sint-Maartensdijk was founded as 'Haestinge', and renamed when it got a church dedicated to Martin of Tours. The first lords of Sint-Maartensdijk resided at Sint-Maartensdijk Castle which was demolished in 1819. The castle was located just north of the town walls, and its southern moat is still visible.
