This was our 2nd time working with Jo. He provided us with details on how to meet him at the cruise port. He introduced us to our driver and told us to have a great day. We had previously worked out a schedule with Jo in advance of where we all wanted to go for the day. There were 6 of us and we had a private bus to ourselves for a very reasonable cost. They provided us with water, beer, and rum punch on the bus. We toured the whole island, Orient Bay for some beach time, Grand Case for lunch at the lolos, Maho for some airplane beach time and Philipsburg for some shopping and afternoon snacks and drinks time. We departed in Philipsburg so we had to find our own way back to the ship based on the time frame we paid for. All and all it was a great day, the traffic in Simpson Bay set us back a bit so we didn’t have time for all of our stops. Our group are all craft beer lovers, so we asked our 1st stop to be the new island brewery called Caribbean Brewing Company. Our driver was not aware of the brewery, but we researched ahead and guided him to the location.

The day was beautiful and our captain Boyd was fantastic. The day started out great he took us to a few areas to snorkel and then to lunch (delicious!!) on Pinal island. Once lunch was done we headed back to the boat. One of the engines did not have any stearing the cable was broken from the salt water. We were told that a new boat would come out to get us. At this point we had already lost the 2.5 hours and then on top of that we waited another 2 hours for a boat to pick us up. We reached out the next day to the owner hoping that maybe he would offer the additional 2.5 hours but no. To start the day out so well and then end with a huge setback on what should have been an amazing experience.

What a great adventure; snorkeling, visiting various islands and nature preserves, and having an absolutely delicious hot lunch on shore. Captain Nicolas and Captain Sammy were fun, informative, and kept us safe at all times. A great way to experience St. Maarten, both the Dutch and French side. I highly recommend taking this trip especially with Captains Nicolas and Sammy. Enjoy!
