You arrive at the base of Sentry Hill with trade winds tugging at your shirt and the island opening like a map below. The Sky Explorer carries you up a series of towers to 1,125 feet, and the cable car slows long enough for the sea, reefs and neighboring islands—Saba, St. Eustatius, St. Barts and Anguilla—to rotate into view.
