Where does RCL 'park' in St. Maarten?

You'll be at the A. C. Wathey cruise terminal - just to the east of Phillipsburg (the main town) on the south side of the island. An easy twenty-or-so minute walk into town, or a couple of minutes by water taxi. There are lots of taxis at the cruise terminal if you wanted to get anywhere on the island - also rental car agencies.

Just wondering where RCL parks. Is it a tender in?

 

No tender. A very nice welcoming cruise port with an easy walk to downtown. Exit to the left from the port to head downtown.

 

According to your map, the port is closest to 29 Great Bay beach.

30 Little Divi beach will be on your left as you approach the port.

 

Research this board as to contaminated water in Great Bay should you choose to swim there.

You appear to be the only ship in port on August 25, so you will certainly dock.

 

Take a look at this map. Click it if necessary to enlarge.

 

It shows the location of the A.C.Wathey Pier at the Cruise Facility, on Great Bay, just below (south of) Philipsburg.

Same place all the other cruise ships park.

No tender. Docked.

Right next to Great Bay Beach, #29.

Can walk to it or take a water taxi or regular taxi to it

People say the water isn't safe though if you want to go in it, so you might want to take a taxi to another beach like Orient Beach.
