- Cupecoy Bay - Hop aboard the Santino, a 39 foot custom built motorboat for a day exploring some of the most famous spots around the island!\n- Tintamarre Island - Usual stops include Long Bay, Creole Rock, Pinel and Tintemarre. This trip does include an open bar of beer, sodas, rum punch, fruit punch and bottled water. Snorkel gear and noddles are also included and the Santino boasts a small but practical marine toilet on board.\n\n- Pinel Island - Snacks or lunch aren’t included so it’s advised to bring extra cash if you are planning to have lunch at a restaurant. From April to October, the Santino can usually head the whole way around St Maarten, enjoying many stops along the way. When the Christmas winds pick up, it makes it difficult to pass over the north side due to big seas. The schedule would then be on the west side visiting Creole Rock and many of the beaches on the west coast.\n- Baie Rouge - The trip can be a bit wet at times so it’s advised to keep your valuables in a plastic ziplock bag.

Great experience on our 1st visit to St Martin - We had a great experience exploring the island on the Santino. We had 5 stops for snorkeling and swimming in beautiful crystal clear waters. Captain Roy and Noah were awesome. They were very informative, entertaining and provided great service. This was our first visit to St Martin and we really enjoyed this tour.

Great sight seeing, zipping around the island, see marine wild life, drink a little rum punch, check out the turtles, - Captain Roy and first and only mate, Noah made our day trip so enjoyable, seeing to your every need, getting the passengers involved, great food at LoLo’s, better than the places other day cruises take you for lunch. Heck yes I plan to do this again next time in St. Marteen. See turtles, Maine life, and the whole of St.Marteen! Also- passengers, show your appreciation, leave a tip!

Great tour!!! - What a great day we had on the Santino. We had booked the tour around the island with 5 stops along the way and a delicious lunch around noon. The crew consisting of Roy and Noa were both excellent hosts and provided us with fun and beautiful spots and delicious drinks and tasty snacks throughout the entire trip. Seen turtles in several places and even a beautiful stingray. This is highly recommended!!!

All day ST Maarten /St Martin circle island boat ride with lunch and stops to swim. - STAFF was helpful and provided services as advertised. Our group of 9 had a great time. Although I do not snorkel I very much enjoyed watching others and seeing their delight. I loved that the crew pointed out hotspots along the way and introduced us to the island. Lunch was provided at a stop and drinks flowed on the boat for those who wanted to refresh.
We stopped at 2 or 3 islands and saw turtles and a sting ray.
This was a beautiful way to spend a day in the sun or under the boat roof top.

A brilliant boat trip with Captain Roy! - Just came back from a perfect trip with Captain . Roy and Noah . They really went out of their way to provide us with great info on the island . It was an added bonus to swim with the turtles. Our lunch stop was terrific too.
The beaches were deserted. I can’t recommend this trip highly enough . Thank you both for a fabulous day .

Snorkeling in paradise - What an amazing day to spend on the water!! Captain Roy and his first mate took excellent care of us the entire day!! Great snorkeling, we were even able to swim with sea turtles!! The food and drinks were delicious and the hospitality and knowledge were hands down the best! It’s nice to be with a smaller group🏝️

Best Round the Island Boat Tour in St. Maarten - I have been coming to St. Maarten for close to twenty years, and this is by far our favourite boat trip. Before we found it, we tried the huge catamarans but they were super crowded, and we also tried a traditional sailboat, but we got seasick and we weren’t the only ones. But once we found Captain Roy and the Santino, we knew we had found the best way to see the island from the water, and to visit beautiful places to snorkel. We swam with sea turtles at Tintamarre, saw a big turtle and tons of fish when we snorkelled at Creole Rock, and enjoyed the lovely shallow water beach at Pinel Island. And let’s not forget a lovely local lunch in Grand Case!
Tru.y though, it’s Captain Roy who makes the difference, and the fact that the boat isn’t crowded really helps too. As well, the Santino seems to be the right size and power to manage rougher water smoothly. This is the excursion we recommend to everyone new to the island, and the one we always take our guests on too. Two thumbs up!
