We'll be staying at a Cul de Sac property on June 7th - 14th and are seeking a sunset or 1/2 day cruise option or charter share (preferably departing from the French side; Anse Marcel or Grand Case). We've previously tried the Lambada/Tango, and the Scoobie only does Sunsets on Tuesdays (the day of our arrival and departure). Thanks in advance for your help.

The Celine Too can't go wrong ? Give Neil a call I am sure he can help you out. http://www.sailstmaarten.com/

Yes...we've taken the Celine before and loved it!! Captain Neil doesn't offer a sunset cruise or 1/2 day charter, however.

We have been on several sunset cruises with Captain Neil on the Celine Too. When did he stop offering the sunset cruises?

You should try the Funseaker. You can leave from Anse Marcel or Grand Case. www.funseaker.com and they have a page on FaceBook.

Neil does offer a sunset cruise. He has a 3/4 day charter as well as a full day. Wont find a better time or food on any other boat. I'll vote for the Celine Too.

We did the full-day excursion aboard Celine several years ago and loved it, but their sunset cruise is on a Tuesday...our date of arrival and departure. The Funseaker looks promising...embarks at Anse Marcel or Grand Case. Thank you all for your help and insights!

I know you were looking for something out of French side but I believe some of the recommendations were also from Dutch side. Went on Random Wind out of Skip Jacks marina in Simpson Bay next to draw bridge. Had a great time. (see review in Trip Advisor Sandy 322) Friends went 2 weeks later and also loved it. It goes out 10 AM and returns at 3PM. https://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_R..._St_Martin.html

Thank you all for your insights. We're going to check out Funseaker as it's moored very close to where we're staying.
