We rented a boat with friends and anchored. We then spent the day eating, snorkeling in crystal clear water, swimming, sunbathing on the beach, and exploring the island. We saw sea turtles, lots of fish, and even a baracuta. Not too many people and boats on the day we went. They came and went frequently. Beach was never crowded.

We took the Tiko Tiko catamaran from Club Orient twice this year to explore. You can walk all over the island and there is even an old airplane landing strip on it from the 1940's. On the other side of the island there is an old boat that sunk which is half out of the water. Neat rocks and shells... More

Had a great snorkleing trip with captain allen's out of Oyster bay. Saw some sea turtles and had access to the beautiful beach on the island. the big surprise was the clothing optional tour that arrived right in the middle of it all. Some folks need to keep their clothes on!! LOL...

Tintamarre can be busy early in the day with a variety of tour boats passing through but it is fantastic in the afternoon and you will see plenty of sea turtles, we saw them in groups of 3-4 at a time. I do think that the island can get a bit hot because of the lack of wind that direction... More

Great beach, We snorkeled here and saw many turtles. Did not stay long but the water is very clear. If you have a chance is is a good place to visit

Stopped on boat trip. Just off coast of the French side. Great snorkeling. Trip circumnavigated St Maarten. All day adventure.

There are no facilities whatsoever, but the most awesome beach and views closest to sea turtles feeding on the sea grasses on the bottom of the warmest waters i have enjoyed.

We stopped here on a snorkeling trip...it's a great spot to see rays and sea turtles. We had one turtle that swam right up to us to the surface...very cool to see that up close and personal. We stopped for refreshments on the beach, which is a very nice area with an interesting rocky area at one end. Be sure... More

Peaceful and relaxing stop on our boat tour. Snorkel with the sea turtles feeding off the beach, see spotted rays or just sunbath on the sand. Apparently, people also camp here; there are fire pits and picnic tables in the trees!
