This pic isn’t that great, but I just couldn’t wait to have that 747 classic pass right over head at low altitude! 😀

There are over 30 beaches on the island, I’m sure the kids would like the beach. There’s lots of shopping with dirt-cheap duty free prices in Phillipsburg. I don’t know about amusement parks or bona fide site-seeing areas, but there are great restaurants and places just to ‘chill.’ Your hotel should have a presentation of activities such as snorkeling, wind surfing, America’s cup yachting, pontoon boats, and mini cruises to neighbouring St. Barths, for instance. There’s plenty to do aside from getting blown over by jetblast.

Greekdude, Please could you comment on the beach and surrounding areas as in terms of a “holiday destination”. The reason I ask is that we are thinking of a family holiday in the carribean in the next year or so. Are their plenty of things to do etc away from the excitement of the runway, i.e are the kids gonna enjoy it etc. I would love to go thier just to experience what you have excellently captured in your photographs. Bottom line is, a holiday thier is quite expensive from the UK and I will be up to my neck in it if I drag my family on thier “dream” holiday and it turns out to be a “spotting spectacular” !!!
Thanks in advance…
