About this tour
This beach hopping tour will be a mind-blowing experience as you share your time between two of our most popular beaches. Orient beach is most popular for having two sections at the beach, a nude section and a clothing section. It is about a mile long with beach bars, fine restaurants with beach chairs & umbrellas. At this stop, you can choose to swim, rent jet skis, fly board, parasailing, snorkeling or any other water sport. Rest rooms, changing rooms, fresh water wash area will be available at most of the beach bars and restaurants
Maho beach is filled with excitement from planes landing a couple feet over your head, then taking off which is the time most people wait for to get sand blasted. We urge you to becarefull and stand far away from the engine blast. At this stop, you can choose to buy lunch or sip on some guava berry coladas while you stroll around and wait for planes to land and take off. You can take a swim to feel the difference between the two beaches and shop.
