Roxyjoan Posted May 12, 2022 #1 Share Posted May 12, 2022 What port has the water taxi to an island off shore, for sun and beers! I’ve read you can take a water taxi to an island and have chairs, umbrella, beer and food. I thought I read you could take a water taxi just 5 minutes for the port.

I think if you want a response you should list the ports you will be visiting. Doubt anyone is going to look it up for you. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lbicklel Posted May 12, 2022 #3 Share Posted May 12, 2022 We are on that same sailing. If I recall from my last eastern Caribbean cruise about 10 years ago Saint Martin has a water taxi. It could be St. Thomas but I’m thinking it was Saint Martin. Whichever one it is it’s just a quick walk from the pier and you can basically see the beach from the water taxi landing. Wouldn’t be that much of a walk either. I didn’t really look for refreshments on that beach that you could buy a chair and umbrella. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ipeeinthepools Posted May 12, 2022 #4 Share Posted May 12, 2022 (edited) Sounds like St Maarten to me. It's not really an island off-shore but an in town beach area. The water taxi goes from the pier to the town. One of the best values in the Caribbean. Edited May 12, 2022 by Ipeeinthepools Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canderson Posted May 12, 2022 #5 Share Posted May 12, 2022 Sounds like Aruba and DePalm Island. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where Celebrity docks in St Thomas, there's a water taxi within walking distance that goes to Water Island. When you get to the island they provide transportation for the short trip to the bar/restaurant which has chairs and umbrellas. The food and drinks have always been good. We've done this several times and enjoyed it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That beach is highly polluted and if you take the water taxi at the end of the dock by the marina you can see the sewage dumping into the water.
