St Maarten Boat Charter Terms & Guest Information

Our St Maarten boat charters are designed to showcase the island’s best beaches, coves, and snorkeling spots. To keep things clear and enjoyable, please review these notes before booking.

Routes & Stops

Popular stops include Tintamarre, Creole Rock, Pinel Island, Mullet Bay, and Long Bay. Exact routes depend on sea conditions and guest preferences. Wildlife sightings, such as turtles at Tintamarre, are common but never guaranteed.

Timing & Flexibility

Charters typically last 3.5 hours (half-day) or 7 hours (full-day). Departure times may shift slightly to ensure the smoothest ride and best conditions.

Customs & Borders

All itineraries in this category remain within St Maarten/St Martin waters — no passports or immigration fees are required.

What to Bring

We recommend:

  • Reef-safe sunscreen

  • Swimwear and towel

  • Light cover-up or rashguard

  • Waterproof pouch for phone and valuables

Snorkel gear and drinks are included.

Safety & Comfort

Captains may adjust routes, reduce speed, or skip rough sections for guest safety. Lifejackets and safety equipment are on board.
