Over priced short drinks the last time a couple of years ago. Will not be returning. My point with the chairs umbrella's is that "SS" knows how many ships are coming in per day. The 'few" set-ups they put out for these new-bees to "our" island is an insult to these paying cruisers!!! Today Jan 28th there are FIVE big ships in. Check out the camera around 11:00 am that beach will be wall to wall people with no place to relax, having to stand ALL day!! If this is there first impression of SXM, it's not a good one!! That is my point. If we want more tourists to stay for a vacation, we have to show them that in fact we are "The friendly island"!!!
Enjoy your stay. A trip to the Pitons is worth it (although climbing either one is a major effort); the mud baths are so-so, I was given a free excursion there so I did the trip. I don't know if they offer a boat trip to the Pitons but that would be more fun than a road trip.
