St. Maarten and St. Martin Port Information and Shore Excursion Reviews

Roger & Judy Best

We caught a water taxi ($5 for trips all day) into the city. With six ships in port, the city and taxi drivers were busy. We visited all the shops we were interested in and took our purchases back to the ship, and then changed clothes to head over to Orient Beach. We road the water taxi into the city again, then caught a cab there to Orient Beach. The taxi driver said, “Turn right for the nude beach, and turn left for the less-nude beach.” We turned left. Orient Beach was a hub bub of activity. Lots of chairs, umbrellas, restaurants, and bars lined the beach, with music, food and drinks. Parasailing and jet skis were available for rental.

We wondered down the beach until one of the restaurants tempted us. We shared a large plate of grilled swordfish – delicious, and settled into chairs for a relaxing afternoon with rum punches and sun. We did see some nudity along this beach, but it was really no big deal … really.
