Questions about drinking ages...

I took my 20 yr old on the Med last year. We signed for him to be allowed to drink. We had to be in the vicinity when he ordered the drink.

Okay, so I will be 20 years old when we sail out for the 7 night Eastern Caribbean cruise on the Fantasy. I understand while on the boat the drinking age is still 21, and while with guides on the island excursions the age is 21 as well (even thought the island age is 18). My main question is: We were thinking about doing the Afternoon Beach Bash in St. Maarten to go to Orient Beach. We'll be travelling with 3 under 21 year olds (that are above the leagal 18 year drinking age). Assuming there are restaurants and bars on the beach, will the 18-21 year olds be able to buy alcoholic drinks through the local restaurants and bars as long as its not through the Disney cast members?

I hope that made sense. TIA!

Yes, you'll be able to drink if you're the legal age of the area your visiting. I'm guessing if you book excursions with Disney, you'll have to follow their rules.
