Easy to get to Phillipsburg, etc. Lots of boats / sailing in Phillipsburg. Of course, it's not hard to get to anything on the island. Dutch side is cheaper than the French side also - but if you want partially/unclotched scenary, you need to go to the french side for the best of that. The Divi beach does have some topless sunbathing though.
