About this tour

Discover the paradise shores of Prickly Pear Islands on this full-day trip from St Maarten. Sail aboard Lambada catamaran and stop at Prickly Pear Island, one of Anguilla’s offshore cays, where you’ll snorkel in clear turquoise waters with reef fish , or relax around in the warm shallow waters along the shoreline. Enjoy a satisfying buffet lunch of chicken and ribs with tasty sides served right on board the catamaran. Before heading home, enjoy a refreshing dip at Mead's Bay. Upon departing Mead's Bay, the sails are unfurled and the sounds of the waves hitting the hulls and our fun playlist provides fun rhythms.
