Boat Ride and Snorkeling Trip

Monday, October 31, 2016
Koolbaai, Sint Maarten
Our first really dreary day - cloud covered. Melissa from Diamond Resorts Events of a Lifetime walked us over to the the Simpson Bay Marina to get on the powerboat Santino with Bill from North Carolina, Ed And Vivian from Stratford, Ontario, Canada, Susan and Paul, and Marcia and Paul East Indian couple from New York. Crew: Julia from Sint Maarten and the Captain.

Julia told us that her grandfather owned Mr. Busby's Bar for many years before selling it to another couple.

We snorkeled with the turtles on Tintamarre Island. I chased one around until it finally took off for the deep water. Then it started to rain and we headed for Pinel Island. Swam a bit but mostly shopped at the boutique with great prices.

Had lunch at Friar's Bay and then continued on for a short swim at Rouge Bay. Once we entered the Dutch side again we stopped at Mullet Bay for a snorkel and swim.

It was a great day!
