Destination: St. Maarten
Sites
The island of St. Maarten is only 37 square miles and is divided between the French and the Dutch (the French call it "St. Martin"). Your Disney ship docks in the Dutch capital city of Philipsburg, just minutes away from the clear turquoise water and white sands of the island's famed pristine beaches. You may book shore excursions to experience a 12-meter regatta to race aboard a world-class America's Cup boat, snorkel at the uninhabited Pinel Island, experience certified SCUBA diving, kayak on a saltwater lagoon, try your hand at sport fishing, or enjoy tours deep within the island and witness the history of this wondrous place including area mountain ranges, try your hand at the island's eight casinos, delight in a butterfly farm, hike and bike through mountain paths and along the seashore, golf at one of the Caribbean's most challenging courses, and scale Paradise Peak, the highest point on the island rising 1500 feet above the sea.
