Full Description:
Your tour will leave the Dutch capital of Philipsburg and drive up the eastern side of the island to the second largest town in St. Martin, the French town of Grand Case. This is a quaint, unspoiled fishing village surrounded by an idyllic bay. At Grand Case Pier, you will board the Seaworld Explorer, a semi-submarine, which takes you on a 60-minute narrated tour of the coral reefs surrounding Creole Rock.
Seaworld Explorer is a state-of-the-art semi-submarine developed in Australia for use on the Great Barrier Reef. The vessel does not submerge; you descend into the hull of the boat and sit in air-conditioned comfort five feet below the surface of the water, exploring sea life through individual, clear glass windows. The highlight of this trip is watching an experienced diver surrounded by schools of feeding fish and green and spotted moray eels. A knowledgeable marine expert will be happy to answer questions as they provide you with information on the amazing underwater world.
On the return trip to shore, you can relax and enjoy the magnificent view of Grand Case Bay and Creole Rock.
