I agree with Boyconny. The ship tours, which while nice, are usually rather expensive. On almost every island I have been too when on a cruise we usually arrange for our own tour. The ship will try and scare you and say if your not back in time they won't wait for you. True, but if you do the tour early, nothing to worry about. Plus there are so many reputable tour operators on thier own, who know if they screw up word gets around on boards like this and they are done.
You'll find on almost every island ( Martinique excluded) that most people are nice,. and friendly and you can usually make arrangements with a taxi driver to drop you off at a beach and then pick up at a prearranged time later. The same trip on a ship tor may cost you double the amount and only give you a short period to "get your feet wet"
