LB_NJ Posted August 18, 2022 #1 Share Posted August 18, 2022 We will be in St. Marteen in late January, 11AM - 6 PM. Just want to sit on the beach, maybe swim if the water is warm enough and grab a late lunch? Relax. Should we just ferry over to Philipsburg or is it worth the hassle of a taxi ride to another beach and if it is, which one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go to Orient Beach, not the nudist end, better beach, views, bars, cleaner sea etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Non nudist is to the North of Orient Resort. Consider Coco Bar and Grill - Plenty of taxis for return, but your outward driver will be pleased to collect your party for the return at a time suited. Best to allow an additional journey time of 15 minutes for heavy port traffic. Your driver will advise also. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyDivot Posted October 10, 2022 #5 Share Posted October 10, 2022 How much is a chair/umbrella at Coco Beach? If we rent chairs/umbrella does it include lunch or is that a la carte? Place looks beautiful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pre COVID 2 chairs + 1 umbrella = $20 per set Sadly, lunch was not included in the $20 fee - in addition to the A La Carte there was a daily specials board Best to book one’s stay in advance.
