Our different itineraries

Depending on the weather forecast, the sea condition, your exploration desire and the amount you wish to spend in gas, see below the different itineraries of St. Martin available, with a boat rental.

A must

Discover Pinel Island aboard your rental boat!


Located north of St. Martin, a few minutes by boat from your starting point (Anse Marcel), you will love this little corner of heaven.


There, you will find two beach restaurants, right on the water: Karibuni and Yellow Beach.

Pinel island is an ideal stop for the lunch break, if you haven't planned a picnic.

A paradise beach and sea turtles

The island of Tintamarre is a real haven of peace. This wild island situated north of St. Martin is uninhabited and the only way to get there is by boat.


You will be absolutely seduced by the huge beach of fine white sand, the clear water, take a walk on the wild coast and of course, snorkel with the sea turtles : they are everywhere!

Natural reserve and snorkeling exploration

Located 5 minutes from Anse Marcel, and just in front of the magnificent bay of Grand-Case, Creole Rock is an essential stopover for lovers of underwater exploration.


This is a famous diving spot in St. Martin, with shallow depth, so ideal for using your fins, mask and snorkel equipment.

The magnificent beach of Baie Longue

La Samanna, located on the sublime beach of Baie Longue, is not to be missed during a boat rental day.


Located west of St. Martin, right at the border with the Dutch side, this place is absolutely magical. The water is so calm and transparent, we dive into it tirelessly.


Take advantage of this little corner of paradise to recharge your batteries during a walk on this huge beach.

Airplanes and white sand beach

You certainly know the famous Maho Beach where planes land from Juliana airport.


Discovering it by boat is an experience not to be missed! Drop anchor in the middle of the bay and wait for a plane, big or small, to arrive... It is a must!
