The experience

Want the beach, the bar and a snorkel without giving up your whole day? This three-hour cruise on Magic Time, a spacious power catamaran, is made for exactly that.

We cruise along the coast with good music playing while the captain points out landmarks, superyachts and planes landing at the airport. At one of the island's signature beaches, the toys come out: lily pads, oversized foam mattresses and noodles. Snorkel the reef, float in the turquoise water, or swim to the sand. The crew serves drinks straight from the floating bar.

Prefer to stay aboard? Dance, sunbathe or relax in the shaded cockpit. The open bar pours beer, iced rum punch, sodas and juices, and we serve fresh French baguette sandwiches with pasta salad. We are back in Philipsburg with time to explore town or return to your ship.
