In case you didn't sea (see.. adaptive cruise control jaguar haha I know that must be the best joke you've seen today) here we took a 7 day cruise in February which I will be recapping over several posts. This one is about Day 2 St. Maarten on Feb 13th.
For the day in St. Maarten, we had a relaxing morning and after eating an early lunch headed off the ship. The Caribbean Princess and a Fred Olsen ship below (UK cruise line) were in dock that day too too.
At the dock shops area, I had to get a picture with this same St. Maarten sign we got a picture with during our first cruise in 2007. (That was the Carnival Glory and we went to Nassau, St. Thomas, and St. Maarten with a bunch of friends)
Then we grabbed a taxi to Divi Little Bay which Megan had researched as a nice beach where you could rent umbrellas and chairs and was only about 15 min away. We decided to just do a nice beach day since we had been to the island previously and all our other port days had excursions.
We had a great time laying on the beach and walking in the sand and taking pictures. We were in a little cove like area with mountains around so the views were gorgeous. There was a bathroom and little restaurant/bar adaptive cruise control jaguar right there too. Get ready for picture overload... or just skip down further.
The whole time we were in St. Maarten we wondered about the foggy island we could see in the distance. The taxi driver on the way back to the dock told us it was Saba Island and that it is known for scuba diving. It is about 30 miles away from St. Maarten hence it being hard to see so if you are ever there wondering now you're in the know. The driver also said there should be no need for Valentine's Day (it was the next day) because you should show love every day. So true.
Once aboard we headed up to the Seaview cafe on the back of the ship on deck 12. It was this place that was open from like 2pm-midnight and had burgers, sandwiches, small bites, etc. We liked to get the guacamole and chips and the fruit/cottage cheese plate for a nice snack to hold us over until dinner and watch the ship as it left port. It was a great spot for that!
We took some of the professional pictures adaptive cruise control jaguar that the cruise line sets up for you to take in different areas on some of the main floors that you can choose to buy after looking at them later in the week. Some of the 4 of us turned out hilarious due to the poses they have you make. We also took some ourselves below.
