Explore the dual-nation island of St. Maarten/St. Martin with Bernard's legendary local guides — from the French side's gourmet beach bars to secluded lagoon coves, this is the island as insiders experience it.
What to expect
Board an open-air safari vehicle and cross to the French side of the island, stopping at Marigot's waterfront market and the hilltop Fort Louis for sweeping Caribbean panoramas. Wind through the salt ponds and lagoon shores to Orient Bay — the French Riviera of the Caribbean — for a long swim and a Creole lunch at a beachfront restaurant. The return route skirts Maho Beach for the famous low-flying jet viewing.
Good to know
Bernard's office is steps from the Philipsburg cruise pier — no transfer required. Confirm tour duration against your ship's all-aboard time; the full island safari runs approximately 4–5 hours. Book directly on their website for best availability.
