DAY TRIP

Our full day cruises depart from Port de Plaisance. Check in is at 8:45am when the hostess will welcome you on board with coffee and juice. We depart on the 9:30am bridge opening in Simpson Bay and serve delicious snacks with a complimentary open bar as we sail smoothly along the southern coastline past Simpson Bay and Beacon Hill, turning North to pass along the western coast viewing Maho Bay, Mullet Bay, and Cupecoy before crossing the border to the French side at Baie Longue and "Baie aux Prunes". We then head East and run along the northern shore passing Baie Rouge, Baie Nettle, Marigot, and Friar's Bay up to Creole Rock and its protected marine park where we stop for a 45 minute snorkeling tour.

After our snorkeling adventures, we sail back to a deserted tropical beach between Creole Rock and Friar's Bay named Happy Bay where we stop for lunch with a cool glass of wine. This secretive spot is accessible only by boat or on foot and offers total tranquility. With this stunning backdrop and a few rum punches, everybody can ‘de-compress’ while listening to Caribbean music with the occasional dip in the crystal waters and regular visits to our floating bar! Alas, we finally set sail and head back to Simpson Bay pushed along by the trade winds. Relaxing music, our complimentary bar, and a tropical fruit salad get us back to the 4:30pm bridge opening to return to the lagoon.

SHORE TRIPS

Capt. Morgan and her crew understand that if you have arrived on St Maarten on a cruise ship, many full day activities including sailing trips may be a tight squeeze to schedule in so we are happy to be able to offer special Shore Trip cruises which consider your ship’s time constraints. Leaving at 11am from Dock Martin in Great Bay Marina (5 minutes walk from the cruise ship port) we will take you on a discovery of the beautiful southern coast of the island sailing to the world famous exclusive La Samanna hotel on Baie Longue where we anchor for lunch on board and snorkeling on one of the island’s most beautiful and peaceful beaches. Then we continue on to sail past Cupecoy, Mullet bay, Maho Bay, Simpson Bay and Cay hill before returning to Philipsburg at 3:30pm giving you ample time to go duty free shopping along the ‘golden mile’ of Front Street at either end of the day. This is a perfect, no-rushing, no-stress shore trip just for you!

PRIVATE CHARTERS

Capt. Morgan is perfect for private charters offering an ‘extensive a la carte’ cruising menu. For example, she can take you to the uninhabited Tintamarre island for an unrivaled snorkeling experience and the famous natural mud baths or to the pristine shores of our closest neighbour, exclusive Anguilla. You may choose to stop for a delicious continental lunch at the French side capital of Marigot or have a picnic or BBQ on your own deserted beach. Together with Captain Serge you can plan a perfect day of sailing and exploring or just lazing in the calm Caribbean waters. This is your private charter – you make the decisions!
