Departure Tax
US$6.75 to destinations within the Netherlands Antilles; US$22 for international flights (due to exchange rates, prices may vary).

Getting There by Water

Small boats operate from the Leo A Chance Pier at Fort Bay. There are regular ferry services to St Maarten (journey time – 1 hour).
