With all the mega ships arriving just about every day (and more being built) SXM is turning into a ZOO! To encroach on private property like BSV, is just the way they are, rude and inconsiderate. They feel "hey, I am here for the day" attitude, I paid for the tour (and yes it will get worse).
In fairness, and while I agree in some respects the island is becoming a bit of a zoo, the beaches are all public, even those st BSV, and while they should have figured out the chairs weren’t for public use, I’d chalk it up to the issue of need out-weighing the risk or the propriety in their mindset. Over the years, the bulk of cruise ship visitors we’ve encountered have always been exceptionally pleasant and eager to ask questions and learn about the Friendly Island.I’d be hard-pressed to say rude but then again, that term can be applied to many and not just the cruise ship guests.
