What are the best options to do a beach break on your own to get a couple chairs and a few buckets of beer?

Yes.

Yellow and Karibuni, catch the short ferry crossing to Pinel Island.

 

if considering sharing a van, then the whole minibus has to agree for the return.  The majority will opt for a very early one.   Anyway, one likes the flexibility and privacy of a cab.

Crossing time no more than 8/10 minutes.  
 

One’s outward driver will be pleased be booked for the return, just give them the time.  Usually the driver will arrive early to put one’s mind at rest.  
If in the rarest occasion there is a no show, there will be other drivers immediately available at site.

We were there last week.   Grab a water taxi at the port for $7.00USD return trip or walk 20 minutes 

 

There are lots of vendors.

we paid $25.00USD for 2 beach chairs, an umbrella, 6 coronas and free wifi. Great Restaurants along the boardwalk - we like Caribbean Blend for great jerk chicken.   
 

We do this every time we go.

The water taxi goes to Great Bay Beach It is walkable or a quick water taxi ride. Lots of shopping and food. It is right in downtown Phillipsburg.

When you walk into port area to the left is a water taxi.  You can get in and it takes you to the beach.  Or you can walk.  Just keep going and follow the bend in the road and you’ll see the boardwalk.

Only from the pier on Orient Beach

[SnorkelAway]

There is a ferry from french-side cul-de-sac to Pinel.   There is no pier at Orient Beach.  Some watersports guys have been available in past to run you over to Pinel in a boat or on a jetski from Orient but I cannot say who at this time.
