SkipJack's - Seafood restaurant on Simpson Bay Lagoon
Seafood, Grill & Fish Market

SkipJack's

Welfare Road, Simpson Bay, Sint Maarten

A Simpson Bay seafood classic on the lagoon

SkipJack's Seafood Grill, Bar & Fish Market is one of Simpson Bay's familiar addresses for travelers who want seafood in a casual, lively setting right on the lagoon. The restaurant sits on Welfare Road, almost across from the Royal Palm Beach Resort, with indoor seating and a terrace overlooking docks, boats and the mega-yachts of Simpson Bay Lagoon.

Seafood is the reason to come: Maine and Caribbean lobster, fresh fish, fish and chips, shrimp, crab cakes, calamari, tuna carpaccio, chowders and daily specials. The on-site fish market gives the place its practical, no-nonsense feel: choose fresh seafood, have it prepared, or simply settle in for a waterfront meal.

SkipJack's also works for mixed groups. The menu includes steaks, ribs, chicken, burgers, salads, pasta and homemade desserts, making it a useful choice for families and friends who do not all want seafood. It is especially convenient if you are staying around Simpson Bay, Pelican Key, Cole Bay or Maho, or if you want dinner before a night out nearby.

Practical tip: book ahead if you want a lagoon-view table, especially for dinner. The restaurant is easy to reach by car on Welfare Road, with parking in the area. Listed hours are 11 AM-10 PM Monday to Saturday and 4 PM-10 PM on Sunday; check the official site or call before heading out during high season.
