St Maarten Boat Trips Spend the day on a 40ft Catamaran and do the mud baths! Celine-Charters.com
St Maarten offers you this opportunity and a whole lot more. On St.Maarten you can find out what it feels like to be a crew member on a 12 Metre Yacht.
Why not try the ‘America’s cup yacht racing 12 metre St. Maarten challenge’? The Regatta allows you the opportunity to sail on board Dennis Conner's America's Cup winning yachts, Stars & Stripes, Canada II and True North yachts.
This is an opportunity that most sailors would love to have. You’ll have the chance to ‘grind a winch', 'trim a sail', 'punch a stop watch', or just sit back, relax, and enjoy the complimentary refreshments’. This challenge has been voted the number one shore excursion in the Caribbean for ten years running, so you really can’t afford to miss out.
If the America’s cup yacht challenge isn’t your thing then there’s always the possibility of sailing on one of the big catamarans to St.Barth's, or one of the other beautiful surrounding Islands. There are many of them to choose from but one of the most popular is "The Eagle". A trip on a catamaran includes drinks, snacks and memories that will last you a lifetime.
You may even want to cruise to a deserted Island and snorkel among the variety of tropical fish and live coral reefs. If you do decide to go snorkeling there are plenty of different coral to see as the Caribbean Sea makes up for 9% of the world’s coral reef.
However, in our day and age the consistently warmer ocean temperatures are threatening many of the coral and it’s for this reason that if you do go snorkeling or diving you must do what’s in your control to preserve the coral by not disturbing it.
For a more personal sailing experience you may want to choose Celine Catamaran Charters. They offer Day Cruises, Sunset Cruieses and the popular Pub crawl. Neil the captain is a perfectionist and is extremely flexible.

Sailing St Maarten - The Best Time...
Sailing St Maarten is best enjoyed during the shoulder seasons from October 20 to December 1, and especially from May 1 to July 1. The most enjoyable sailing is in late spring and early summer because the seas are calmer.
Now, you may think of sailing as a simple pleasure powered by nature, but capturing the wind and using it to your own advantage is a complex operation. Besides basic experience, confidence and a good crew, all that's really required for ocean sailing is a compass and a portable GPS.
However, if you are an inexperienced sailor then it wise to hire sailing professionals.
From our experience we have never met a visitor who has not had an absolutely fabulous time sailing St Maarten and its surrounding islands.The water is so beautiful, and after sailing for just a couple of hours, you're in a new country and culture. T-shirts and shorts are the normal wear day and night... where the air and water is warm, and the sailing is delightful.
Add to these the attraction of exotic and fine dining, island hopping and sailing, and you definitely have the ultimate vacation get-away.
Of course, the ultimate sailor can choose from a wide variety of sailing activities throughout the Caribbean.
And, most of these sailing activities also include a stay on land in hotels and villas.
