A relaxed catamaran day from Simpson Bay

Random Wind Charters is a popular way to experience Sint Maarten from a 52-foot catamaran. Its best-known trip is the Paradise Day Sail, a 10 AM to 3 PM outing with sailing, swimming, snorkeling, stand up paddleboarding, the Tarzan swing, lunch cooked on board and an open bar.

The main pickup is on the Simpson Bay side near Welfare Road. Cruise passengers may also have a pickup point in Philipsburg, so guests should confirm the exact meeting location with the team when booking. The boat takes up to 30 passengers, which keeps the experience more personal than many large excursion boats. The route depends on sea, wind and the day's conditions.

It is a practical choice for families, couples and groups who want an easy full-day sea outing: snorkel gear, flotation noodles, paddleboard, food and drinks are included. Bring swimwear, a towel, sunglasses with a strap, reef-friendly sun protection and a dry bag for your phone and documents. If you are prone to motion sickness, prepare before departure, even though the catamaran is a stable platform.

  • lunch on board
