1Little Bay
We will pick you up at Bobby's Marina at the wooden gazebo in front of Aziana's restaurant. After a short safety briefing, we will cast off along the beautiful shoreline of Sint Maarten. Get comfortable on board, and find your own private spot. Our first stop will be at Little Bay. This small pretty beach is well protected by the outcrop of Fort Amsterdam right on the edge of Philipsburg. There you can enjoy a one hour guided snorkel tour with plenty of sea life, a sunken helicopter and submarine. This is the perfect spot to explore the tropical underwater world. For our snorkelling enthusiasts, Little Bay offers one of the rare beach snorkel locations, as the waters here are generally calm due to its 'cove like' nature and also the installation of solid rocky beach breaks. This makes it an ideal spot for children and beginners, and you can also use our selection of water equipment thus there is plenty to do for all of our guests.

2Maho Beach
We will slowly sail by at Maho Beach, located across the Princess Juliana International Airport runway, where we will watch planes take off and land - depending on plane schedules. We cannot stop there but will try to catch a plane above our mast. An absolutely astonishing view to enjoy while having a cold beverage or socializing at the inside bar. Have yourself a drink (cocktails, beer, and non-alcoholic beverages), and allow our hostesses to spoil you. After watching the planes, we will cast off to our next stop, Mullet Bay.

3Mullet Bay
Our final stop before returning to the dock will be Mullet or Simpson Bay. There, we will drop anchor and enjoy the gorgeous Caribbean Sea. Jump into the water for a swim, float along on a noodle, relax on our 18ft floating mat, or take a ride on one of our kayaks or stand-up paddle board. Enjoy drinks (cocktails, beer, and non-alcoholic beverages) and food on the large aft deck or flybridge, or just relax and enjoy the view on our sundeck lounge. The forward trampoline area is also open to guests, and is ideal for lounging and soaking up the sun. We will cast-off early enough to ensure our cruise ship guests will arrive back at the starting point on time.
