St. Martin Question

**Markis** · 01-04-2015, 05:19 AM

I have a question regarding activities in St. Martin. Wondering if anyone has taken the Tiko Tiko nude cruise while there, and if you enjoyed it. Any suggestions on which is the best trip, and any other feedback would be great!
Thanks,

We took it 2 years ago did the cruise around the island and really enjoyed it

We have been to St. Martin 20 times and have been on the Tiko Tiko trip about 9 times...so I guess you can say we enjoyed it!
It is a great day, about a 45 minute sail out to Tintemarre island where you can snorkel, swim or just hang out on the beach. The lunch is served on the boat and is wonderful, usually the afternoon is spent on the beach recovering from lunch. LOL.
I suggest going early in your stay as it is a great way to meet people and also if there is a cancellation (weather) you can rebook. They used to do a mud bath in the afternoon but I believe they no longer do that as Tintemarre is now an environmentally protected area.

I think they also do a picnic lunch (French-style submarine sandwiches) one day a week which is somewhat cheaper.

Tiko Tiko is a "must do" at least once.

Great, thanks. We are going to get it booked now. They also have a power boat trip to St. Barths for the day, and we are booking that as well.
Cheers,

We went to St. Barth way back in 1999...make sure you stop in at Le Select in Gustavia for a Cheeseburger in Paradise (reputedly one of the places where Jimmy Buffett got the inspiration for the song).

We have also done Peggy and Paul's around the island c/o cruise, although Peggy is not on the island anymore. You can probably google it as they have a website. A large power boat and they make several stops for snorkelling and lunch.

Thanks, I will look at their web site.

We took the tiko tiko gourmet cruise and really enjoyed the trip last May

We are planning a May trip this year as well

When are you going, maybe we can meet?

We are going in February. 5 more weeks! It has been a rough winter already. We both are down with the flu, and can't seem to kick it. Looking forward to some warm humid air.

Was there anyone else at Tintamarre when your Tiko cruise stopped? The first time we did the cruise we had the island to ourselves which was wonderful. The last time we were there another, much larger catamaran cruise stopped. This was not a nude cruise so being nude on Tintamarre was not as enjoyable with the other group there. We'll be in St Martin in late March and would love to try the Tiko cruise again as long as I know we'll have some privacy. Thanks

WE had a great time on the Tiko Tiko cruise. I took the best photos of my wife there, on the East side of the island. It's a photo in my gallery here.

Sadly, the Tiko Tiko is booked for week long charter while we are on island. Does anyone have a suggestion of other more "adult" sailing trips? Would be nice if the wife could at least go topless, and not have youngsters on the boat.
