What To Expect
Little Bay
We will pick you up at Bobby's Marina at the wooden gazebo in front of Aziana's restaurant. After a short safety briefing, we will cast off along the beautiful shoreline of Sint Maarten. Get comfortable on board, and find your own private spot. Our first stop will be at Little Bay. This small pretty beach is well protected by the outcrop of Fort Amsterdam right on the edge of Philipsburg. There you can enjoy a one hour guided snorkel tour with plenty of sea life, a sunken helicopter and submarine. This is the perfect spot to explore the tropical underwater world. For our snorkelling enthusiasts, Little Bay offers one of the rare beach snorkel locations, as the waters here are generally calm due to its 'cove like' nature and also the installation of solid rocky beach breaks. This makes it an ideal spot for children and beginners, and you can also use our selection of water equipment thus there is plenty to do for all of our guests.
Maho Beach
We will slowly sail by at Maho Beach, located across the Princess Juliana International Airport runway, where we will watch planes take off and land - depending on plane schedules. We cannot stop there but will try to catch a plane above our mast. An absolutely astonishing view to enjoy while having a cold beverage or socializing at the inside bar. Have yourself a drink (cocktails, beer, and non-alcoholic beverages), and allow our hostesses to spoil you. After watching the planes, we will cast off to our next stop, Mullet Bay.

The boat had so many...
Isces B,Jun 5, 2026

3.00The boat had so many rules that made the boat experience not as fun. They told us we couldn’t play our own music and that they had their own playlist which wasn't good nor exciting for everyone on the boat. We had to ask a few times to play our own music! It was very boring. They supplied food but there were no options to pick from such as pescatarian or vegan options. They did make sure to keep us with drinks and snacks the entire ride. The staff were nice but very strict.. We are adults at the end of the day, they have to loosen up a little. The main thing we didn’t like was that at the end of the boat ride the bartender/cook stood in front of our shoes with a tip box which forced people to tip . They should not do that to people when we already paid a lot for the boat experience . It has potential to be a good boat but they need to work on a few things.
A beautiful day on the sea

5.00We had a wonderful day with Sail the Phoenix! The crew were so friendly, attentive and hospitable and they made the effort to make the day special for all those onboard. We would book the crew again for our next trip to st Maarten.
Everyone was so friendly....

5.00Everyone was so friendly. Great crew, great guests and everyone else on the excursion was friendly! I think this would be tough if you have any trouble getting around and are not "sure footed" as the boat can get rocky and there are lots of uneven surfaces just by design of the beautiful catamarans so that is one thing to be aware of before you book. The day was amazing. Great timing for every aspect of the trip- nothing felt rushed. My entire family: 54 (m), 54 (f), 25 (m) and 22 (m) enjoyed and would recommend!

1.00Showed up for the boat ride at 9:40am for our 10am ride and a worker walked over and told us the boat ride was cancelled due to weather. I never got a message or anything preparing my wife & I we wouldn’t be able to do this on our honeymoon so i couldn’t planned something else.
Poor trip

2.00We waited almost 30 minutes past departure time waiting for a group of 15 drunk young ladies. This cut our trip short because everyone was forced to wait for these passengers. Absolutely unacceptable. On board, these same girls were sloppy drunk falling all over the boat and vaping in the other guests faces. The crew continued to serve them all drinks the entire time and by the time we returned they were embarrassingly drunk.
Great crew, good and plenty of cold beverages

4.00Bring plenty of sunscreen and perhaps a seasick patch. staff were very caring and wanted to make sure that all your needs were taken care of. If you have any mobility issues or balance problems, probably not the right activity for you.
Amazing
