-decent local beer bars, bar girls to bullshit with and food.

-scuba diving.

If anyone can offer some average pricing and how it compares info that would be great. My averaged experiences are; Thailand 500 BHT barfine, 1500 girl, Vietnam 40 USD to 80 USD, girls from Line, China 50 USD (outside of big cities) Costa Rica 80 USD to 150 USD.

Any info would be great.

Thanks, Raul.

These prices you quoted only confirm that I will continue going to SXM and Colombia. Asia was on my list, but what's the point if it costs more (after factoring in the more expensive flight)?

Anyhoo, to answer some of your questions, and without getting into a debate on what the state of the island will be in November, historically prices are approx. $5 room + $50 USD girl on SXM for approx 30 minutes. You'll need a rental car to get to the casas. Food on the island is great, with lots of bars, local and touristy. Can't speak to scuba diving, but I hear it's much better on Curacao (where, for reference, girls were at about the $40 USD mark).

Again, this is all before COVID, so I make no predictions for what the future will hold.

Crystals is also on the same road.

Yes I think a chica I know is infected I she was posting pics of parting in VIP with 3 bottles of champagne, driving around in expensive cars, with expensive gifts and for the last 4 days I have not seen nothing new.

In another newspaper they said they traced back the infections to nightclubs and stripclubs both places where the chica I know went.

Robbie,

The trip from Colombia upwind to Curacao is a nightmare. I did it once to Guadeloupe and had to stop in Curacao for a seasick crewmember--not to bad had fun ad disney-campo.

However I would never again sail upwind back towards the caribbean from Colombia.

Bad news is Colombia is Closed for international travel. If This Keeps up, I will probably sail to Cartagena in November quarantine and then it is party time.

There are still girls there I know of a fine one she is posting pics in parties in SXM at VIP table with 3/4 bottles of champagne and riding around in expensive cars. I think she is currently dating a rich guy in SXM she posted holding hands living the expensive life so probably she is not available for other people.

Dutch side has all flights from USA Banned until Aug 1, and subject to further restriction. At this time JetBlue has only one flight scheduled Aug 1, 15,22, and 29. Fri-Mon in Sept. And daily in Oct. Cruise ships are not scheduled into port until Sept 22. On top of this, the USA Passport office is not processing any renewals. It has been shut down except for medical emergencies since March. Estimate 3-4 month backlog of millions of renewals. Usually takes two weeks. Ugh. All this, plus the girls being unable to get back to the island, tells me St. Maarten is off my list for 2020. And let's also hope the newest possible hurricane that is projected to travel thru St. Maarten takes a serious right turn.
