I spent a relaxing day on-site while David went on a Rhino Riders excursion from morning into the afternoon. The rain came and went throughout the day—brief but heavy when it did fall. I stayed on the deck the entire time, with nothing noteworthy to report.
We made a reservation for a high-top table at Roma/Mr. Chow, and it was a great decision to message Marco a few days before our arrival. This ensured we had a guaranteed spot and the opportunity to order from either the Asian or Italian menu .
For those who haven’t visited since before December, they now have an outdoor patio with several tables in the garden area near the pizza oven. The hostess mentioned it officially opened in December, which wasn’t the case when we last visited in early November.
From the happy hour menu, we ordered the fried spring rolls, which were crispy and flavorful. We also tried a sushi roll. The Latin Roll—shrimp tempura, avocado, and plantain on top, drizzled with Sriracha mayo. The menu mentioned a chipotle sauce, but I didn’t notice much heat. Still, it was delicious and highly recommended.
For entrées, David had the linguine with clams —there were plenty of clams, and he really enjoyed the dish. I opted for a Caesar salad with garlic shrimp, It was just the right portion and very satisfying.
Dessert was a decadent chocolate tart served with ice cream—unfortunately, I can’t recall the name, but it was rich and indulgent.
Service was excellent, as always. We enjoyed chatting with the bartenders and waitstaff we’ve come to know over the last few years. Marco, the ever-gracious host, made his rounds with warm greetings, hugs, and conversation.
By 7 PM, both restaurants were packed, and there was a line forming outside. If you’re planning to visit, a reservation is recommended!

Least Rolly Anchoring in Gustavia St Barth
Higgins78
Yesterday at 03:31 AM
We'll be on a 45' cat. Corrosol? Anse de Public? Les Gros Islets? Les Petit Saints?
From what I can tell the swell typically comes around the corner from ~ 240 degrees?
If you get lucky in the off-season can you get one of the Port/stern moorings inside the Port of Gustavia with a cat or only monohulls?
Thanks!

Final report

03/31/2025 10:18 PM
Went to Big Fish in Oyster Pond. A beautifully done decor. Updated a bit from pre Irma under new owners since then. My wife and I had Manhattans with Jack Daniels- probably the best so far except that they ran out of Jack for my second one ; they had to use bourbon. My wife had Grouper with spinach and a champagne tarragon sauce. I had Mahi-mahi with their “Cadillac sauce” mildly spicy tomato based sauce. Sides are standardized- mashed potatoes with some herbs, broccoli carrot and grilled garlic bulb. My wife said her fish was dry- needed more sauce, mine was very good.
Had continental breakfast at Princess Heights- very good for price $10/person. Did not do anything today -raining in the beginning of the day -very windy in afternoon. Getting ready to go home. Sad!
Tonight back to BZH Creperie for a selection of the main dishes.

Should we pack the snorkeling gear?
KellyO

We are packing today and getting ready to depart to SXM on Wednesday morning. We have been to the Island several times over the last number of years but don't recall if there is good snorkeling from shore at any of the beaches. We are staying at Secrets at Anse Marcel and are wondering about that area specifically and any other beaches on the Island. I think we have been to almost all of them previously. Should we pack our snorkel gear or leave it at home?
Anyone else staying at Secrets in the next couple of weeks?

Greece in April - Athens and Santorini

We will be traveling to Athens and Santorini. Other than the two beaches in Santorini, I have been struggling to find anything clothing optional that may be more temperature appropriate, like coed spas, saunas, hamman’s, pools, etc.

How long does passport need to be valid?
jonmar
03/31/2025 02:51 PM
I've read that it has to be valid for the length of your stay AND six months after your departure date. Can anyone confirm that arriving at Juliana only requires a valid passport for the duration of the visit? Thanks.
