Not sure exactly what the deal is but traffic has been horrendous in the Simpson Bay area in the 3:30 to 5:00+ range almost daily. I know it is a busy time and it is nearing Regatta but this seems worse than I have seen in the past.

If you are doing a spectator boat or anything that involves going through Simpson Bay, allow double the time you normally would. It took us 30 minutes from Royal Palm to get to Billy Folly Rd at 4:30 last night and others in our group coming from the Maho are missed the Sunset Cruise we were scheduled on.

I can only expect traffic to get heavier the closer it gets to Regatta so take heed, leave early if coming into Simpson Bay. If parking close and walking is an option, do that. We would have walked to Aqua Mania yesterday but one in the party can not make the hill.
