Cruising IN

Sarah and I went to Saint Maarten on a cruise. It was thoroughly enjoyable. Although we did not have alot of time to explore the island, we did enjoy shopping, eating some authentic BBQ ribs, and visited the Guavaberry factory.

Pros and Cons
  • Pros:Guavaberries, Island Fun, Shopping
  • Cons:Cruise ship timing did not give us enough time to explore.
  • In a nutshell:I would not mind spending more than one day here....

    Guavaberry coladas sound interesting! Am contemplating a cruise that includes St. Maarten for 2008...

    I agree there's some good shopping in St. Maarten, especially for beachwear, towels, etc. The beach isn't too shabby either!

    I very nearly went to St Maarten in February.....but I couldn't find *any* affordable accommodation! I ended up in sub-zero Toronto instead!! ;-))

    I spent three very enjoyable days on Sint Maarten many years ago. It was the first, and only, time I've ever been on a nude beach.
