ACTIVITIES
ST. BARTS - NOVEMBER 17
St. Barts Snorkeling - (1 ½ hours)
Take a rib boat ride across the harbor to snorkel near a reef while observing reef fish and marine life in the crystal-clear waters off St. Barts. Keep an eye out for green sea turtles, an endangered but relatively abundant species in these waters.
You may spot brilliantly colored angelfish, large groupers, and schools of queen triggerfish. One of the most curious-looking species is the four-eye butterflyfish, which is named for the two dark spots – or false eyes – on the sides of its tail, which are meant to confuse predators.
After your time in the water, you will climb aboard the rib boat ladder for the journey back to the pier and the tender waiting to return you to your SeaDream yacht.
Please Note: Guests are required to be proficient swimmers and in good physical condition, as boarding and disembarking from the boat involves using a six-step ladder. While turtle and fish sightings are highly likely, they cannot be guaranteed. This excursion is not suitable for guests with mobility challenges or back and neck issues.
Attire: Swimsuit with a cover-up and comfortable flat shoes. Please note that there are no changing rooms or restrooms on board the rib boat. Remember to bring a towel, hat, and sunglasses.

ANGUILLA - NOVMEBER 18
Shoal Bay Beach Adventure (4 hours)
During this activity, guests will discover Shoal Bay Beach, one of the top beaches in the world. Upon arrival a cool cocktail welcomes you and allows for an afternoon relaxing in your very own lounge chair at this stunning place. Shoal Bay is the most popular beach in Anguilla and attracts locals, tourists, and day trippers from the neighboring island of St. Martin for a good reason. Your time here is on your own schedule. You can relax and enjoy the view of the two-mile sandy beach, swim, snorkel, or take a stroll in the fine sand from one end to the other. Restaurants, beach bars and hotels line Shoal Bay's shores.
Notes: You will be dropped off and picked up at an assigned, central location. Your beach lounge chair and umbrella are reserved so there is no worry about finding one. There are also several restaurants and bars along the beach where you can enjoy a local snack and drinks. If you plan to snorkel, be sure to bring your equipment from the yacht.
Sights of Anguilla (2 hours)
During this activity, Guild guests will learn about the history of the historic salt pond before continuing for a salt tasting experience. Anguilla has long been regarded as a seafaring and salt mining nation. The salt tasting experience gives guests an opportunity to try locally made and flavored sea salt, enjoy chocolate produced with salt crystals and try a signature local beverage.
Following our salt tasting, we will visit the Iconic Arch, which is a naturally formed arch held together by Anguilla’s limestone rock and natural vegetation on top and around the site. Anguilla isn't all about beaches - its coast boasts impressive rocky formations like the Arch.
Our final stop on this tour is the “Pink House”, a marvelous example of a standing traditional Anguillan building. Traditional homes here are wooden houses covered with shingles and are the archetypal West Indian design in most people’s mind. Enjoy several behind the scenes cultural experiences during this activity!
