High season note

This is a private charter operated by an individual boat.
Once your booking is matched to a specific captain and vessel, that boat can only run one charter per day.

During high season, private boat charters around St Maarten / St Martin often book several days in advance, particularly for weekends and calm sea days.

After you request your date, we confirm live availability with the captain operating your charter.

You’ll receive confirmation before paying anything beyond the initial deposit.
