St. Martin Mountain Bike Adventure
PRICE: ADULT: 78.00 / CHILD: 78.00 USD
DURATION: 3 Hours 30 Minutes Approx.
Before setting out from the waterfront in the French Capital of
Marigot, you will be outfitted with a bike, safety gear and given
a safety orientation. Departing the waterfront, you will reach the
off-road portion of your tour and head out along the stunning
coastline towards the only steep hill on your adventure.
Once at the top, experience breathtaking views of the city of Marigot
and the island of Anguilla. Still hugging the coastline, the trail turns
into an exhilarating downhill ride. Ride through the rural
village Colombier, set deep in a valley where a rest stop will be
made. Once back on the trail, you'll glide down and out of the
valley and through Friar's Bay Village where you will view an old
plantation house en route to Friar's Bay Beach. There, you
will be served a complimentary beverage and have an opportunity
to take a refreshing swim before boarding the bus for the
return trip to the ship.
Note: Open-toed shoes not allowed. Minimum age is 12 years old.
Afternoon Beach Break
PRICE: ADULT: 39.00 / CHILD: 20.00 USD
DURATION: 3 Hours Approx.
If you are the kind of person who likes to shop til you drop in the
morning or just do not want to rush and have lunch on the
ship, then you may be wondering how to spend the afternoon?
Why not take a trouble free trip to the beach and take advantage of
what St. Martin is famous for, its beaches. Unwind on one of the
Caribbean's best beaches, Orient Bay. You will be driven in
air-conditioned transportation to the beach and be greeted by a
guide who will orient you with all the facilities. You will be supplied
with a lounge chair and cushion in an area reserved just for you,
and you will also enjoy unlimited rum or fruit punch!
For approximately two hours you can just relax in the sun, swim or
explore the one and a half miles of beach. You can also take
advantage of the largest selection of water sports on the island (at
additional cost), including parasailing, wave runners and
non-motorized craft. There are gift shops and you can even get a
massage, you name it - you'll find it here! Double umbrellas
are available to rent.
Note: Because this excursion stops adjacent to Club Orient
Naturist Resort, there is a possibility that some nudity may be
observed.
