There are some textiles on the beach, but there always were before. It's a clothing OPTIONAL beach. Go and enjoy!

Thanks for the report. To sort of change the subject, what is going on with any other places to eat along Orient, other than the Perch?

And we too have been here for the past 4 weeks. Prices at Peach Lite are in dollars, not euro. Yesterday, I had the ribs at the Perch Lite and my wife had the chicken. Both were excellent.

Currently on SXM. Club O seems to have it's share of "clothed", depending on the day (mostly around the bar). Likely cruise shippers. Do not hesitate to go!!!

Is there still a "No Photo" policy on the Club O beach and is there anyone there to enforce it? It is probably best to ask those around you if they mind you taking their picture. If they mind, then be polite and don't. If they don't mind, have at it.

I have no interest in taking pictures on Club O beach and would consider it in poor taste to do so....It has been my understanding that many enjoyed that beach because they didn't have to worry about someone taking pictures of them.

Pretty sure there is a sign of some sort, and have seen beach goers politely ask the camera pointers to stop. But at this time there are no security people there.

You can't get to Club O from the village.

We just returned from a 10 day vacation there and spent most of our days at the Club O section. While I don't mind the boat people being there, we did see a problem towards the end of our vacation, we parked at the Perch lite parking lot every day, the first 8 were okay they had a sign to the entrance that read Perch lite parking and taxi parking straight ahead near Pedro's but at the by the end of our vaction they added taxi parking to the Perch lite parking sign and the taxi's swarmed to the area with loads of boat people taking over the parking lot and large sections of the beach with many of them snapping photo's with total disregard to the sign's, plus the women selling there merchandise were waithing next to the Perch selling their stuff, and if you walked within 200 ft of the Pedro rocks you would get attacked by them, I noticed this also took away from Chez's and le string renting their chairs and selling food, the last day I saw no chairs rented at Chez's and only a couple people eating lunch there, while the Perch was packed with boat people, I know some people will say they have a right to be their and I agree, but it would help out the other places if they would keep the taxi parking area at Pedro's so it would spread the tourist out to support the other bussinesses and not over crowd the Club O section, we did not enjoy our last 2 days.

Stopped at Perch Lite for a brief drink and swim....saw "Gerry" from Mass, he will be down for a few months. I asked for Willie....they said she was okay....anyone know why she is not running Perch Lite??
I have been visiting St. Maarten for 48 years as well as many other Islands....but SXM is "home". In the USA, I live between FL (north of Tampa/Pasco/Brooksville) and CT. Any questions, please mail me: [email]MrStMaarten@aol.com[/email
