Palm Beach/De Palm Island?

[carol&jeff]

Does anyone know if Palm Beach is the same as De Palm Slope/De Palm Island? I'm looking at an excursion that goes to Palm Beach, but can't figure out where it is. Thanks!

No totally different.

 

Palm Beach is situated towards the northwest side of the island and is also know as the area of the "hi-rises" [hotels].

 

De Palm Slope/De Palm Island are located in the totally opposite direction from Oranjestad which is where your ship will be docked.

 

This map will give you an idea. On the west coast at the "fork & knife" heading directly due north to the camera icon for "Bubali Bird Sanctuary", Palm Beach runs north from here up slightly past the Holiday Inn icon.

 

De Palm Island is unfortunately hidden on the map by clouds. It too is situated on the west coast a little less than half way between the dive flag icon labeled "Sonesta Island" [the former name of Renaissance Island] and the southern tip of the island.
