Saved to wishlist!
After pickup from your St Maarten hotel, you'll transfer to Kim Sha Beach in Simpson Bay to meet your departing catamaran.
Climb on board to meet your experienced captain and friendly crew, then pick an ideal spot on the deck to relax. Soak up some sun, seek out shade or find a place on the trampoline area to catch some sea spray. Sidle up to the open bar or grab a snack of French baguettes. Watch the St Maarten shoreline recede into the distance as the boat heads toward the neighboring islands.
At Prickly Pear island, don your provided snorkeling gear and jump off the boat. The shallow waters and soft sand beach make this island a great spot for seeing the native marine life like butterfly fish, snapper and grouper.
After all this activity, refuel with lunch at a beachside restaurant. Dig in to a traditional Caribbean barbecue meal while enjoying the seaside breeze, then climb back on your boat to cruise to the next stop.
Sail for Cove Bay or Meads Bay on the neighboring island of Anguilla. Spend the afternoon enjoying more of the Caribbean's undersea life while swimming and snorkeling. Get great views of the island from your marine vantage point.
On the way back to St Maarten, watch the sun sink toward the horizon with a glass of Champagne in hand. Munch on grapes and banana cake before returning to the dock, where your full-day cruise ends. Enjoy drop-off back at your St Maarten hotel.

Itinerary
Head to Simpson Bay's Police Dock to board your catamaran. Pick a comfortable shaded seat, enjoy the breeze on the sundeck or savor the cool mist on the trampoline area as you leave St Maarten behind and cruise gracefully out onto the clear-blue Caribbean Sea.
Grab a drink from the open bar, offering rum and fruit punch, beer and water all day, and enjoy a snack of French baguettes with ham, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes and tuna salad en route to your first stop, Prickly Pear Island.
One of the Prickly Pear Cays — a small pair of uninhabited islands off the west coast of St Maarten — Prickly Pear Island has a superb beach and shallow waters that are great for snorkeling. Strap on your mask, slip into your fins and leap into the water for your first snorkeling session of the day. Swim around in search of grouper, snapper, butterfly fish and other marine life commonly sighted in these warm tropical waters.
Admission Ticket Free
After burning off those morning calories, enjoy a BBQ lunch at a typical Caribbean restaurant on the beach or onboard in Meads Bay or Cove Bay on the nearby island of Anguilla for some afternoon swimming or snorkeling. On board, take in great views of the shoreline from your vantage point on the waves.
