We will be cruising to St Maarten in a couple weeks and I had a friend who just went there give me advice on this. She said to not book any excursions for this port. Instead when you get to the beach you will be approached by many people trying to "sell" you beach chairs. She stated the further down the beach you go, the cheaper this gets. She said she got a deal mid-beach for 2 beach chairs, a bucket of beer, 2 drinks, and access to the restaurants restrooms for $20 total.
This is what we will be doing ?
