Could anyone please tell me the legal ages for drinking and gambling on the island?

Augie;

I am an agnostic dyslexic who questions if there really is a dog.

Legal gambling age in the Netherlands Antilles is 21, not 18.

It is not 21, that is incorrect. It is in fact 18 years of age.

jen,

I believe you can trust Barbara1 as she lives on the island. As an aside, it is not likely that anyone will check for ID as long as the person doesn't look extremely young and doesn't behave in a suspicious manner.

Hope this helps.

I look very young, but I'm 26. My friend looks somewhat young and is only 19.

jen,

I really don't think you'll have a problem at most casinos. You will need ID to travel anyway so it's not like you won't have it. You'll be fine. Just win big and let us know.

Peace.

Since everyone seems to have gone to St. Martin -- could anyone please tell me a nice quaint secluded place where a person could go topless for the first time.
Thanks

Jack, I don't think you will have a problem going topless anywhere on the island.
