TravelTalkOnline Forums Travel and Vacation Forums St. Maarten - St. Martin Beach Chair Rental/ Sailboat for a day

Hi All,
We finally rented an apartment in Grand Case and will be going the first week of July. I noticed the chairs at the apartment are the cheap flimsy ones. Isn't there a place to rent some nice beach lounge chairs and umbrellas during our stay? I recall many years ago seeing rentals. When we were going on a steady basis we would bring everything with us. Can't imagine that now, but do people do that anymore?
Also, since we are staying in Grand Case and want a super low key-no driving- beach week, I told my family we don't need a car. We have everything we need in Grand Case. Grocery/shops/bakery/restaurants/beach. A whole week on GC without leaving the area. I'm totally down with that. : ) We don't gamble or do nightlife. We just want to swim at the beach all day.
We do want to get out on a nice sailboat one day.

Who does beach chair/umbrella rentals?
Who is best to sail us around and go fishing/snorkeling/drinking/lunch for a day.[/color]

I would think twice about hanging at one beach all week. When I say all the beaches are different, they literally are. Different sands, colors, textures. Different vibes. It's almost like visiting different islands as you move from beach to beach. That variety is one big reason that I vote the island

You can go down to the Grand Case Beach Club and check out the boat excursions at the water sport desk. I am not sure if Octapus Diving has anything for you but I would check.
