Imagine having your own boat for the day, swimming in beautiful spots, discovering little islands, and enjoying the Caribbean at your own pace. That’s the pitch behind a private charter out of St Martin, and it’s also where most travelers get stuck.

Private Boat Charters in St Martin / St Maarten

Spend a day on the water with an island-based team that works directly with a small network of trusted, licensed captains. They’ll help you pick the right charter for your group and the kind of day you have in mind, then stay on hand before and after you book.

Where you can go:
St Maarten charters: cruise the coast of St Maarten and St Martin
Anguilla trips: a full day exploring Anguilla by private boat
St Barts trips: sail across to St Barts for the day
