We arrived in Sint Maarten on April 2nd, right before a front that brought heavy rain and high winds. It was a bumpy night on Simpson Bay, but, the rain had a welcome cooling effect. The next day, we moved into Simpson Bay Lagoon.
The beach at Phillipsburg. This is the most bathtub like beach I have ever seen. Gentle, warm and welcoming! This picture was taken at about the halfway point of the beach. The other half of the beach is crammed with chairs and umbrellas that are sold by the hour to cruise ship passengers by various restaurants who also want to sell them a beer.

Exiting the Simpson Bay Lagoon. The blue structure pointing upward is the bridge. They just open it three times per day, so the boats that are coming in or leaving have to be lined up and ready or wait til the next opportunity. This reminded us of the bridges on Lake Union and Ballard in Seattle.
