TINTAMARRE TURTLE SNORKEL AND PINEL ISLAND
TINTAMARRE TURTLE SNORKEL AND PINEL ISLAND
ShoreTrips says...
Snorkel to your heart's content with this exceptional tour to some of St. Martin's best snorkel spots, all located within marine protected waters.
With a group of no more than 16 people on board, settle in and get ready for a wind-in-your-face ride on this immaculate power boat to the beautiful north side of St. Martin.
Enjoy the tunes as we head to our first destination, Tintamarre Island. While the island itself is uninhabited, the surrounding waters are teeming with life. Your crew will be by your side as you strap on your snorkel gear, slip into the turquoise waters and prepare to be dazzled by beautiful coral, colorful fish and perhaps most exciting, those elegant sea turtles. With a ladder off the back of the boat, it will be easy to take a break and relax on Tintamarre's gorgeous beach.
Back on board, your fun, attentive crew will provide sandwiches and beverages as you make your way to Pinel Island. Pinel Island was once a French penal colony, but worry not, now it's all about fun. The island is home to a great Tiki bar, white sand beaches and crystal clear, shallow water. These waters are perfect for the kids, with easy entry right from the beach and plenty of undersea life to explore.
Enjoy the ride and the views as we head back to Oyster Pond Marina.
A great way to escape the crowds and really focus on the beauty of St. Martin.
