Any Good/Worthwhile Excursions in St. Maarten?
 
I will be going to St. Maarten on Feb. 11/02 for two weeks. Would appreciate info/recommendations on worthwhile excursions, best restaurants/nightlife and anything that is a "must-see". Also, are there "internet cafes" or the like? Any info would be appreciated - a.s.a.p. Thanks!

Would suggest going to Saba for the day. A Winair flight of 15 minutes will get you there.

Not exactly an excursion, but a trip to the Sunset Beach Bar is always fun. The bar is located directly across a 2-lane road from the beginning of the airport runway. Get there around 4 p.m. and sit a few tropical beverages while waiting for the Air France 747 to come in. There is no airport in the world where you can get as close to a moving aircraft as the Sunset Beach Bar. Don't believe me? Log onto their website: www.sunsetbeachbar.com, and click on 'airplane photos'.<BR><BR>Enjoy!

I must practice my proofreading.<BR><BR>Don't SIT a few tropical beverages, SIP them!
