Description

Our 6-hour St. Maarten trip with stops at the best locations around the island will give you a sample of everything this Caribbean gem has to offer. During this excursion, you will see Simpson Bay Lagoon, Tintamarre, Pinel Island, Creole Rock, Grand Case, Long Bay and the planes landing at Maho Beach. The experienced captains and crew, first class snorkel gear and open bar will make your day perfect!

As this is a private tour, you have the freedom to change times and sites visited as you wish.


You can check-in at 9:00 am at our office in Cole Bay or enjoy a complimentary pick up at your hotel or cruise ship terminal. Exact pick up time will be advised after reservation. Cruise ship guests will be picked up close to the cruise ship terminal.


Once everybody is on board, we will sail through Simpson Bay Lagoon which is the largest lagoon in the Caribbean and the home of multi million dollar mega yachts such as the Limitless owned by Victoria's Secret or the French Governor's family home.


We will exit the lagoon to Marigot, the capital of French St. Maarten, then follow the coastline all the way out into the sea arriving at our first stop Tintamarre Island, home of the turtles. We will have a generous picnic lunch here with vegetarian options. You may choose to eat in a restaurant with additional costs. After lunch, you can take superb photos, see the historical slave walls and take a walk along the untouched white sand shore.


After our hearty lunch, we will set out to the marvelous Pinel Island. Stroll along its spectacular sandbar beach, relax in the crystal clear shallow water, visit the iguana farm or have a exciting cocktail at a beach bar.


Once everyone is back on board, we head over to Creole Rock, a rock formation in the middle of the French Nature Reserve with loads of coral and fish. It is one of the best snorkeling destinations in the Caribbean thanks to its great wildlife and crystal clear water.


We continue our journey towards Long Bay where the island's most luxurious hotel is, frequently visited by Hollywood super stars. The most expensive villa on the island owned by Donald Trump can be found here too.


Of course on the way back we will pass by the world famous Maho Beach where we can see the giant passenger planes landing over our heads if we are lucky. Please note that we cannot guarantee to see large passenger planes.


We return to the cruise ship terminal by 4:30 pm and say farewell to our cruise ship guests, then manage the hotel transfer around 5:00 pm.

We had an amazing time on the private snorkeling trip. The employees all went out of their way to make it such a fun time. The group was small and we were able to see so much of the island. The snorkeling was great! We saw sea turtles and tons of tropical fish. If you need anything they are their to help! Definitely recommend and will be back:)
Response from supplier
Dear Hayley B,

Thank you for your feedback and recommendation! It was our pleasure to have you as our guest for the day. We look forward to seeing you again!

Unreal trip with Captain Stan the boat man(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)Recommended
Reviewed by Owen G on January 19, 2019
Booked a private charter with Coconut Reef. Can't speak highly enough of Captain Stan. We didn't care about snorkeling as much as taking a private cruise around the island. We did snorkel once and it was great, but it wasn't our primary reason for chartering the boat. We had horrible weather in the first leg of the trip along with some aggressive seas, but Captain Stan did a fantastic job piloting through some heavy swells as well as keeping the people he could tell were nervous calm. Lunch was great in grand cas, however we didn't really care about lunch. He guided us along very well and did exactly what we wanted. We decided we wanted to wrap up a little early, but Captain Stan seemed apprehensive. We genuinely hope he didn't get in trouble with his bosses for doing exactly what we wanted him to do.
