St. Maarten Private Sailing Charter Day Tour

"All I ask is a tall ship," said the poet John Masefield. You'll realize how he felt as your private sailing charter takes you on adventure after adventure on this St. Maarten excursion.

Climb aboard your sailboat where you will find plenty of space in the shade or sun, on a boat that accommodates up to 37 guests, plus crew on board. Sit back, lie down, hang on, and, of course, relax, as the crew welcomes you on board, and the captain prepares to sail.

Join us on this St. Maarten excursion as we sail, swim, snorkel, eat, drink, fish, and swing into the Caribbean Blue for a wonderful day in paradise. Our adventure begins as we set sail for the beautiful, calm French side of St. Martin aboard our 52-foot luxury catamaran for a day of coastal sightseeing, snorkeling, and enjoying life on the water with family and friends.

During your tour of St. Maarten your captain and hostess will take you to quiet bays away from the crowds, where there are all sorts of underwater activities. Don snorkel gear or a float to discover coral, fish, turtles, and maybe even dolphins. You can even try using a paddleboard or an ocean kayak.

If you're feeling adventurous, you can also take a turn on our Tarzan swing as you fly over and into the ocean! This is good, clean fun in paradise for all ages. Bask in the sun onboard or stay cool in the shade, your choice. Snacks, as well as a delicious lunch of Caribbean chicken, green salad, french bread, and rice, plus a top-shelf open bar, make this a memorable day for the whole family!

This private charter is quite special and perfect for weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, family reunions, etc. Not only will you have the yacht to yourselves, but you can also discuss the itinerary/destination as well as additional food choices with the operator, who will try to honor any wishes, however, the final itinerary is at the captain's discretion on the day of the tour based on sea and weather conditions and the safety and comfort of the guests.
