About this activity
Get ready for a half-day of sun, beach and "plane" fun! After boarding your air-conditioned van or coach you'll take a drive across the border and spend two hours at the Orient Beach. Try all sorts of watersports, from jet ski to paragliding (own expense). You could also just relax on the clear sand beaches or take a dip in the turquoise sea water.
Next you will head to the Maho Beach, famously known as Airport Beach. You are guaranteed an experience like no other. When you arrive at Maho Beach, the Sunset Beach Bar and Grill has the flight arrivals listed on a surfboard for plane watchers not to miss a landing while they are having a bite to eat. And to top it off, a live feed airs the communication between the airport control tower and the arriving aircraft. Get to lounge under the shadows of jetliners.
Soon after you've gotten jet blasted, the coach will take you back to the cruise port in plenty of time to board the ship.

We had a great time in St. Maarten visiting both beaches. Our tour guide was fabulous and allowed us the most time at both places. I would strongly recommend staying longer at Orient Beach. The beach is bigger, less crowded and very clean. However, once you arrive you will be approached frequently with locals to buy merchandise or a massage. Once they pass it's a very relaxing place. Maho Beach is worth going to to see the airplanes, but it is very crowded. This beach is better to visit later in the afternoon, 2:00 and after once the crowd dies down. We had plenty of water, soda, beer and Rum punch provided by our driver to last us the entire trip. Great Day!!
