What to see & do in St. Maarten?

[lephysteria]

We went to Maho beach! It was awesome and the planes land right on your head :)

 

We didn't need our facials that week, as the jet blast removed the top 7 layers of skin for us :D

I have been there twice now and both times we have done the America's Cup regatta, I think it is that much fun. In fact I will do it again on our next cuise. We will also shop and go to the beach.

We did a private (non-RCCL) excursion on the Lord Sheffield. It's a tall ship that does a "pirate day cruise" which includes a stop for snorkeling, lunch, and beverages. It took up most of the day and we had a blast. We had enough people in our group from here on CC that we decided to privately charter the ship (it was only a few bucks more per person than their usual rate, and we had the ship all to ourselves!) You can get more info by going to lordsheffield dot com.

We also rented a jeep for the day from Hertz. Had the top off and since it was 4 wheel drive we went off-road to a couple of beaches that were totally emtpy.....and beautiful.. Also to Marigot for lunch and a bit of shopping. Then up to Grand Case and then over to Orient Beach for snorkeling..... then back to Philipsburg. We had a blast that day. Got to see a big part of the island, shop and had some great lunch and beach time too. It just takes planning.

Did you know where you were going in those Jeeps, just followed your nose, or did you have a map? I forget...do they drive on the left or right?

The America's Cup regatta - how long is the tour and what do you do on this tour???

I agree, Maho Beach is a must see. Check out the Sunset Beach Bar.

My husband and I went with 3 other couples. We all loved it, especially my husband who works in the airline industry.
