By Plane:
Fly into Princess Juliana International Airport on the Dutch side of the island. Our yacht is located at Simpson Bay Marina, just a few moments away from the airport. Taxi service is available from the airport to our home base. You will check-in at the boat which is indicated by the Festiva Sailing Vacation flags and markings.

Our Base Location:
The Simpson Bay Marina is where our base is located on the Dutch side of St. Maarten. You will find Simpson Bay Marina directly behind Jimbos Restaurant about a 15 minute taxi ride from the airport. The meeting time to board the yacht is at 5:00pm on Saturday. You will have dinner aboard the yacht at the base that evening and the yacht will depart on Sunday morning. Because of crew time needed for provisioning and yacht preparation, no one will be able to board prior to 5pm on Saturday.

Hotel/Resorts:
If you are considering additional stays prior to or after your charter with us, we have preferred rates for all Festiva Sailing Vacation guests at The Atrium Resort.

Ask your charter specialists for details or email atriumreservations@festiva.travel and use promotional code: FSV.

Please Note:
U.S. citizens must have a valid passport. Other citizens should check entry requirements with their home country's
consulate. A $20 tax is imposed upon departure from the Princess Juliana Airport.

All guests must bring proof of "onward accommodations" (flight or hotel confirmation for their plans directly after cruise is over). This information will be required if the yacht gets stopped by immigration.
