camelotbob Posted May 5, 2014 #1 Share Posted May 5, 2014 Is the snorkeling off Philipsburg's beach any good? I was told a few years ago the west side of the beach was decent snorkeling. Any truth to that or is it a waste or time to walk down to that end? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerryl12 Posted May 10, 2014 #2 Share Posted May 10, 2014 If you go down to the very west end of the beach by the rocks it may be ok. The main beach area is just sand with few viewable fish. St Maarten is has very little if any good snorkeling from my experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camelotbob Posted July 9, 2014 Author #3 Share Posted July 9, 2014 I can now authoritatively answer my own question. There is nothing to see for snorkelers along that beach. It's a man-made beach that must be rebuilt almost yearly based on hurricane activity. Beyond the sand, if you swim far enough out, is nothing but sea weed.
