Rare Murray's Pop Posted May 20, 2022 #1 Share Posted May 20, 2022 Is there a map showing the water taxi stops as well as what's around in the port? I have searched but have not been able to find anything. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare crewsweeper Posted May 22, 2022 #2 Share Posted May 22, 2022 Water taxi makes 3 stops. Just past the shopping area at the pier, the far end of the board walk and then again near Bobby's Marina . Here's a link to boardwalk information and map. There are several map image sites on the web as well. https://www.waymarking.com/waymarks/WMZZNV_Philipsburg_Boardwalk_Philipsburg_Sint_Maarten Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, the DDG founder has a pretty extensive history of privacy abuse starting with the creation of a service designed to coerce naïve users to submit sensitive information about their friends and DDG is currently collecting users’ operating systems and everything they highlight in the search results. So no, DDG is NOT my friend. Google did not provide sufficient info on what I was looking for, so tried asking here if someone had something more relevant.

Rare crewsweeper Posted May 24, 2022 #6 Share Posted May 24, 2022 Never had nor read of those issues. Firefox then. And on Edge the link to the map is on the upper right corner. It's a Google map and expands. Sorry you're having such a difficult time as there are plenty of Phillips burg boardwalk maps on the web. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the taxis have never stopped st third stop. Are you saying they have closed it completely, although I realize your report is somewhat dated now. Any recent updates from anyone?

Was there last Thursday. $7 pp round trip per person (provided you wear blue wristbands that you get at the ticket office at the port), or $5 one way, plus they request gratuities. From Sint Maarten Cruise Terminal by Dr AC Wathey Cruise Pier, there Two stops: 1) Captain Hodge Wharf on the boardwalk at intersection of Voorstraat (aka Front Street) and Hendrikstraat and 2) Walter Plantz Square Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends on how well you tolerate the heat and how much time you have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have searched but have not been able to find anything. Thanks! Before you leave your ship, go to an upper deck and have a look towards the bay and town. You will see everything: the water taxi, the beach, the town, the pier where the water taxi goes. I know it's hard now to picture it, but once there, everything is within sight from the ship. The town (shopping, cafes, etc.) is one street (walkway) along the bay, and one parallel street behind it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shipgeeks Posted December 25, 2022 #14 Share Posted December 25, 2022 OP, Is there a particular beach/restaurant/shop you are hoping to locate? Or just an idea of the lay of the land? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisingrandy Posted December 27, 2022 #15 Share Posted December 27, 2022 Just used water taxi Dec. 21 and it was really good. Boats about every 5-6 minutes and friendly crew. The $7 roundtrip is good for all day so we did it to beach in A.M. then back to ship to change and quick bite to eat . Back to town for short tour to French side of island. Also they sell soda and water on board for $1 each and beers wer $2. Enjoyed the short reide back and forth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
