Marigot is the main town and capital on the French side of Saint Martin. The city of Marigot is perhaps the most French in spirit of all the cities in the Caribbean. Colonial houses stand beside cafés and bistros, pastry shops and luxury boutiques, and in many ways, it looks just like any of the French market towns you might expect to find in Europe. At the southern end of town by the harbor is Marina Port la Royale. This area includes elegant stores with the latest in European designer fashion and fine jewelry, all duty and tax-free. The entire city is only four streets wide, so it is very easy to get around. Marigot was named the capital during the reign of King Louis XVI, who built Fort St. Louis on a hill near Marigot Bay. Today, that building is the most important in the city. SeaDream anchors off Marigot and offers several yachting land adventures as well as the possibility to play with the toys at the marina.
The smallest island in the world is shared by two countries, the Netherlands (Sint Maarten) and France (St. Martin), giving each side of the island a distinctive culture and flair. Simpson Bay straddles the best of both worlds, delivering white-sand beaches, beautiful lagoons dotted with impressive yachts, and vibrant dining spots that take in the energy of the island.
Perhaps our most treasured destination in the Caribbean! This small island belonging to the French West Indies has so much to offer our SeaDream guests. Incredible shopping only steps away from the pier. Incredible beaches, resorts, restaurants and activities both day and night. SeaDream has created various land adventures for you to discover the island from sea or land. Ask one of the officers to take you on a hike or bike ride around the island. Another great activity here is to simply relax and watch all of the incredible yachts arriving and departing just off your SeaDream yacht.
South Friar's Bay offers SeaDream guests a new way to explore the island of St. Kitts. Rather than docking at the capital, the yacht will be anchored in the bay. This particular bay is one of the two bays stretching along the coast of the isthmus connecting the Southeast Peninsula, with the rest of the island of Saint Kitts. From swimming and snorkeling on the south side to body surfing on the north, Friar's Bay offers guests several options. Many locals consider the southern beach the best on the island. If you are thirsty, no worries as there are multiple beach bars, offering various food and beverage options. The island itself offers several land adventure options including the Unesco Awarded Brimstone Fortress, Zip Lines, off road adventures and golf at the Royal St. Kitts.
With nearly 3,000 residents, Portsmouth is the second largest town in Dominica. SeaDream can either dock alongside the unique wooden pier or lie at anchor in Prince Rupert Bay to offer activities from the marina. A must would be to navigate Indian River with a SeaDream Land Adventure or explore Cabrits National Park.
Rodney Bay is a bay on the North West coast of Saint Lucia; it is along the northwestern coast of the island to the north of Choc Bay. It is named after British naval officer George Brydges Rodney. We will anchor and offer tender service to one of the local bars or direct to the marina. Guests can enjoy the Yachting Land Adventures, water sports, the local beaches or a hike to Pigeon Island.
Soufriere, a small town on the South West Coast of Saint Lucia is considered by many as the island’s gem. The town and the surrounding region has a population of 8,000. Originally founded by the French, it was the original capital of the island. Soufriere has a great deal to offer visitors including coral reefs, the rainforest, Diamond Falls, the sulfur springs, a “drive-in” volcano and the ever popular and majestic twin pitons. Check the Land Adventure options as we feel certain you will enjoy them. You may also sit back in one of the Balinese dream beds and witness a beautiful sunset.
Bequia is the northernmost and largest of the Grenadines, just seven square miles of quiet lagoons, reefs, and long silvery stretches of beach. Among the first things you will notice are the colorful model boats set up on stands around the tiny harbor, representing the island's maritime history. If you are lucky enough to have a late call, don’t miss Mac’s Lobster Pizza.
SeaDream uses the port of Bridgetown as the hub for their Southern Caribbean voyages as well as some voyages that cross the Atlantic. The Island itself includes UNESCO Heritage Sites, excellent beaches and history dating back to 1628. The climate is tropical with constant warm temperatures during the year cooled by light trade winds.

Marigot - French & Dutch Island Discovery
Description
Discover 2 countries on one island during this unusual island excursion.
Depart Marigot port heading towards Paradise Peak, the highest elevation on the island, then pass Grand Case, the culinary capital of the Caribbean, and continue past Orient Beach to Paradise Lookout Point for a view of famous Orient Beach and the island of St. Barth with an opportunity to take some photos. Next you will drive through Quartier d’Orleans, also known as French Quarter and will cross the International Border to the Dutch side of the island.
Upon arrival in Philipsburg, capital of the Dutch side, you have approximately 1 hour of free time to do some shopping on well-known Front Street or stroll along the Boardwalk to find many restaurants, bars and even ice cream parlors. There is also a fantastic view of the cruise ships at the Dr. A.C. Wathey Cruise & Cargo Facility, the largest port on the island. The journey continues to the Cay Hill Lookout Point, for views and a photo stop of Simpson Bay Lagoon, the largest land enclosed lagoon in the Caribbean, as well as of Simpson Bay Beach and all the way to Princess Juliana International Airport. At the airport you will experience the amazing spectacle of planes landing right overhead while enjoying a refreshing local favorite the Guavaberry Colada. Guavaberry rum is a legendary folk liqueur of St. Maarten/St. Martin and is an integral part of local culture and tradition. It is made from fine oak aged rum, sugar cane, and wild local Guavaberries – not to be mistaken with guavas. Guavaberries are rare and can only be found high in the hills in the center of the island as a bright orange or as a red/black fruit. After this fun experience you will return to the port in Margot and your yacht.Notes

Journey to the exquisite island of Mustique where you can explore for a day on this private catamaran adventure!
Bequia is located only 5 miles from the magical island of Mustique. This small island measures 3 miles long by 1.5 miles wide, is privately owned and has long attracted the elite of the world including the British Royalty. Mustique has a perfect blend of simplicity, comfort and sophistication that appeal to an international and cosmopolitan clientele.

Along the Bequia coastline you will view some rather unusual homes set in amazing natural rock formations and arches known as ‘The Moon Hole.” You will also pass the historic whaling island of Petit Nevis. When you near the island of Mustique, your vessel will sail closer to the coast while the knowledgeable guide onboard will point out where the luxurious houses of the rich and famous can be seen from the water. See the homes of stars like David Bowie, Ralph Lauren & Sir Paul McCartney. The catamaran continues to dock on the island next to the famous Basil’s Bar.

Lunch at Basils Bar is included in the price. An island tour of Mustique is not included, but you can arrange an independent tour with one of the three island taxis if they are available.
