PHILIPSBURG:--- Local eco tour company Seagrape Tours has donated $2 for each customer they had in 2015 – their first year of operation – to two nature organizations on St Martin. Half of the proceeds went to the Sint Maarten Nature Foundation and the other half to Les Fruits de Mer. “The publications and events of Les Fruits de Mer are a great source of information on St Martin’s wildlife, and the Nature Foundation works hard on protecting St Maarten’s beautiful nature. Without their efforts there would be way less to show and tell during our eco tours”, says grateful tour guide Ilja Botha who owns Seagrape Tours together with her husband David Botha. “St Martin has so much more to offer than sun, sea, sand and shopping and our experience is that visitors love to learn about our history and nature.” Seagrape Tours offers History, Nature and Birdwatching Tours.
