Sail to Nirvana
Philipsburg (St. Maarten)
Tour Details
Nirvana Sailing Excursion
Sailing, snorkeling, and swimming. We've gotta hand it to you - you've picked a particularly great way to spend the day with this St. Maarten excursion!
Climb aboard your sailboat where you will find plenty of space in the shade or sun, as there are never more than 30 guests plus crew on board. Sit back, lie down, hang on and, of course, relax, as the crew welcomes you on board and the captain prepares to sail.
Departing from Simpson Bay, your captain will take you on a beautiful course past bays and some of the island's lowlands. Your St. Maarten tour itinerary is based on the sea/weather conditions, and your captain will take you to where you will have the best experience.
Two of the captain's favorite spots are Little Bay and Mullet Bay. When the boat arrives at Little Bay, it is often greeted by a myriad of sea creatures, making this a perfect spot for snorkeling. You can even try using a paddleboard or an ocean kayak.
While you are snorkeling, walking the beach, or chilling out on one of the comfy cushions, your hostess is cooking a full lunch of Caribbean-inspired treats such as coconut curry chicken with rice, usually a nice green salad and French bread, as well as an edible fruit garnish. There are always cookies and chocolates afterward.
Then it's on to the second stop, Mullet Bay. This is also an ideal location to swing on the famous Tarzan Swing. This trapeze-style swing allows guests to swing out and drop, backflip, or dive into the beautiful, blue water. The boat's bar is open with bottled water, juices, and sodas in the morning, and after snorkeling, some of the coldest beer in St. Maarten, as well as rum punch.
Please Note: Final itinerary is at the captain's discretion on the day of the tour based on sea and weather conditions and the safety and comfort of the guests.
