Fresh Island Coconut

[wezie]

I have always wanted to try fresh coconut while on an island. I will be on the Explorer in May and stopping at Bermuda, San Juan, St. Maarten and Labadee. Does anyone know of any place on any of these islands where I can get some fresh coconut?

Vendors walk Orient Beach in St M selling them

Where is Front Street? We have an excursion that day that I am pretty sure will take up almost the whole day (swimming with dolphins). Is it anywhere near where the ship docks?

Careful with that. Coconuts can be excellent laxatives for some people.

This is not the best map, but I found it relatively quickly.... If you take the water taxi from the ship, it will drop you off at the pier at Wathey Square. I can't guarantee there will be a coconut vendor, but typically there are vendors on or near front street... just ask around if you can't find one, people are very friendly:D:D

Just a reminder........You won't be allowed to bring the coconut on to the ship.
