There are few beaches and you get there via St. Maarten (flights)

I think there is a medical school on the island they admit 40 students a
semestar or something. I remember reading about the island - when we
returned from our curise way back in the late 80's...

I was so intrigued by this Island it has me planning this as my get away
with my husband and brother (and his spouse)

One of the nice aspects of a cruise is also finding islands you love and
returning to them and staying longer then the preview.
