foxtrot2 Posted February 11, 2007 #1 Share Posted February 11, 2007 Does anyone have any recommendations for what to do in St. Maarten? Our cruise leaves in 3 weeks so I'm trying to plan our excursions. We will be taking a day sail to St. John & snorkeling during our stop in St. Thomas so I want to do something a little different in St. Maarten. Any recommendations would be appreciated!!!

Tmmull Posted February 11, 2007 #2 Share Posted February 11, 2007 We recommend the Lord Sheffield. http://www.stmaarten-shoretrips.com/lordsheffield/ We had a blast. Here's pics. http://travel.webshots.com/album/237790311wyqUXw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will get a lot of ideas in the Ports of Call Board for St Martin: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/forumdisplay.php?f=93 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ocean Boy Posted February 11, 2007 #6 Share Posted February 11, 2007 Go to Maho beach and duck down when a 747 tries to hit your head with its wheels on it landing approach to Princess Juliana Airport! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
threeofus Posted February 11, 2007 #7 Share Posted February 11, 2007 Zip line at Lotterie Farm!!! Really a lot of fun...but if you have a fear of heights stay away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MIcruiser99 Posted February 11, 2007 #8 Share Posted February 11, 2007 We tried to do a little of everything since it was our first visit. We hired a driver who took us around the island, Maho Bay for the jets coming in, Marigot, Orient Beach. The beach was gorgeous, Marigot was interesting, loved watching the jets come in.

KT32 Posted February 11, 2007 #9 Share Posted February 11, 2007 I'd definitely second the Lotterie farm recommendation. We haven't done the zip line, but its a beautiful setting and the restaurant is great for lunch. Tempura banana brought us back a second time on our last cruise! Marigot is also quite pretty for shopping - being a French territory there are products available there which are difficult to find outside of France.
