... My DS enjoyed the Golden eagle Catamaran in St. Marteen. It's about an 1 1/2 hour boat ride, then an hour plus of beach playing or snorkeling, then the ride back...]
I'm glad I saw this info in another thread, as I was thinking about doing the catamaran excursion. However, I'd much rather spend 3 hrs. at the beach and only an hour on transport. The write ups on the excursions don't say anything about travel times. Can anyone advise as to best beach time, time as in both hours and enjoyable activities? I've had a great time at Sapphire Beach (which has great snorkeling) on St. Thomas in the past, but have never been to St. John.
A question about St. Maarten's beaches... at which beaches are we less likely to encounter nudity/toplessness? My 9-yr old dd very modest, and my 11-yr old ds is getting the 5th grade sex education talk the day before we leave for our cruise. Talk about timing!
I don't mean for this thread to be about the suitability of nudity... just some facts, please? ; )
