Private charters in St Martin / St Maarten
Full-day private boat trip to Anguilla

What this charter example shows
A private boat trip to Anguilla is one of the most popular full-day experiences from St Maarten, known for its clear water, white-sand beaches, and relaxed atmosphere.
The day typically focuses on a few carefully chosen stops rather than covering a large area, with time to swim, explore, and enjoy the coastline at a comfortable pace.
Because this is a private charter, the route is flexible. The captain can adjust the plan based on sea conditions, weather, and how you want to spend your time on the island.
