Overview
ItineraryThis is a typical itinerary for this productStop At: Simpson Bay, Simpson Bay, Sint Maarten, St Martin / St MaartenCaptain Bob's most popular speed boat, snorkeling and beach tour is a full day, 5 stop adventure of a lifetime that is uniquely designed to show you the very best of both the French and Dutch sides of Sint Maarten/St. Martin. Departing from Philipsburg, you'll first head past the islands of Saba, Statia and St. Barts before passing under the bridge into Simpson Bay Lagoon, the biggest lagoon in the Caribbean. While sightseeing in the lagoon you will be taken aback by the size of the million dollar "mega yachts" of the rich and famous that frequent the island in the wintertime. After officially crossing onto the French side of the island you will make your way around Marigot, Happy Bay, Friar's Bay and finally Grand Case. Duration: 1 hourStop At: Tintamarre Island, St Martin / St MaartenYour first stop is the island of Tintamarre, an uninhabited island within the French Nature Reserve that is only accessible by boat and where large groups are forbidden, a great way to escape the cruise ship crowds. Here your knowledgable captain will give you a brief tutorial, provide you with snorkel gear and flotation devices and send you off to snorkel with the protected sea turtles and stingrays that reside there. Duration: 45 minutesStop At: Pinel Island, St Martin / St MaartenFrom there it's on to Pinel Island- a breathtaking place that boasts calm, waist-deep waters and swaying palm trees. It's the ultimate spot to unwind and relax with a drink in your hand and your feet in the soft sand. A delicious lunch will be served at Pinel, all included in the price. Before leaving don't forget to check out the boutique for souvenirs/gifts and say hello to the friendly local iguanas! Duration: 1 hourStop At: Creole Rock, Bd Bertin Maurice, Grand-Case 97150, St MartinNext it's off to Creole Rock for another snorkel stop but this time at a vibrant coral reef with some of the most colorful fish and marine life in all of the Caribbean. Once everyone is safely back on board, you'll continue around the Northern side of island passing Baie Rouge, Plum Bay and the rest of Terres Basses, the most expensive zip code on the island. Duration: 45 minutesStop At: Mullet Bay, St Martin / St MaartenEnjoy one last dip in paradise at either Long Bay or Mullet Bay- both universally recognized as some of the top beaches in the world. This is your last chance to grab "a noodle and a beer" and float around in the stunning turquoise waters while jamming to some of your favorite tunes. Drinks are complimentary all day long!Duration: 45 minutesStop At: Princess Juliana International Airport, Airport Rd, Simpson Bay, Sint MaartenLast but not least, make one last stop at the famous Princess Juliana International Airport to experience the thrill of the commercial jets taking off and landing directly over your head. You'll be sad to see the day end as we drop you back off at the dock but a free ice cream for your walk back to your cruise ship or hotel will have you smiling again in no time.Duration: 30 minutes

Traveler Reviews

Do not hesitate to book this trip! This was the event we were most looking forward to on our cruise over Thanksgiving. Our expectations were high and they were exceeded. Brett went out of his way to assist in organizing the trip. He even thought to check if I would have access to wifi once boarding the cruise ship (so he would know how to communicate with me once we left the states). He was prompt with our pick up and return times. His schedule for the day was awesome. There was the just right amount of time spent at each location. He is knowledgeable about the area and a great conversationalist. We felt safe on board and were never nervous about his boating abilities. The day is fairly priced and if we are back in the area, we will likely book the same trip again. Overall 12/10 on our charts! Thank you for allowing us to feel like locals on a beautiful day in paradise. Don't debate- just book it! You will love every minute of your time aboard.

We had a great day. Brett was a great captain. Very informative and we made 4 stops over the day. Everybody had a great time. Wade stole the show, fellow passenger. We’ve been on a lot of excursions and this is ranked at the top. Thanks for a great day.

Brett was our captain, and did an awesome job, keeping us laughing and informed the whole time! We had a super fun group, which made the experience all the more incredible! It was an unusually windy day, so Brett had to modify our itinerary to stay on the Caribbean side of the island. We spent time watching the super yachts, swimming at Happy Bay, snorkeling at Creole Rock, moored at Grand Case at a quiet spot for lunch, visited La Semana Beach, and watched a plane land from off Maho Beach. The lunch was simple but adequate, and drinks were plentiful. If you are prone to motion sickness, I would definitely recommend taking something before your trip. A great day all around!

This was a great boat trip. Brett our captain was knowledgeable and outgoing. Gave us history of the island. Took us places to swim and snorkel. Love the small group of people verses the large crowded boats. Lunch and drinks were great. The weather was a bit windy and could not go to the other side but we all had a fantastic day. Book this trip you will not regret it.

What a fabulous day! Brett was our captain. He was great! Snorkeling and swimming in different areas! Perfect day! We had a great lunch and beverages provided too! My husband even found some sand dollars! We felt so safe and he provided all the snorkel gear and noodles. What a fun way to celebrate our anniversary ??
