St. Martin vs St Thomas

[mail4mel]

We are a family of 4 (2 kids 9yo and 7yo) that like to be active and try new experiences. This is our first time in the eastern Caribbean (done Western 3x). Disney just changed our itinerary to now be St. Martin and St Thomas. So my original plan is now a wash.

I'm looking at which island would be best for a charter for snorkeling and which one is better for some good ol' sight seeing/eating/ziplining/exploring/taking in the culture. I think either island would be great for snorkeling and have a few suggestions (but if you have a charter you like, please suggest). I am wondering which island would be more fun to see and explore with the kiddos.

Thanks

We took taxis to Magens Bay in St. Thomas and Orient Beach in St. Martin. We had great beach days. For more adventure, look into Loterie Farm in St. Marin and Tree Limin' Zip Line in St. Thomas. I have been to neither, but both get good reviews, and I think both are back in operations after the impact of the hurricane.
