Compare private boat charters around Saint Martin and find an experience that fits your plans.
What Does a Private Charter Include?
A private boat charter reserves a vessel for your own group rather than placing you on a shared tour. Depending on the provider and selected package, the experience may offer flexibility in the route, departure arrangements, and time spent at different locations.
Some charters focus on relaxed coastal cruising, while others may include island-hopping, swimming or snorkeling opportunities. When comparing options, check:
Vessel Type
Confirm whether the charter uses a yacht, catamaran, or another type of boat.
Group Capacity
Check the maximum number of guests permitted on the vessel.
Duration
Review the available charter length and compare it with the actual time on the water.
Itinerary
Find out which destinations and stops are included or can be requested.
Crew & Services
Confirm whether a captain, crew, refreshments, or other services are included.
Equipment
Check whether snorkeling equipment and other items are provided.
Additional Costs
Review any extra charges before confirming your booking.
Every charter is different, so rely on the individual listing for the exact inclusions and arrangements.
Half-Day vs Full-Day Charters
Half-Day Charters
A half-day charter may suit visitors who want a private boating experience without committing an entire day. Depending on the route, it may allow time for coastal cruising and selected stops.
Full-Day Charters
A full-day charter can offer more time on the water and greater opportunity to explore multiple destinations. It may be suitable for groups interested in a more extended island-hopping experience.
Check the actual departure and return times, route, and included stops before choosing. Duration alone does not guarantee that a particular destination will be visited.
Yacht vs Catamaran Charters

Private Yacht Charters
A yacht charter may appeal to visitors looking for a premium private boating experience. Vessel size, onboard facilities, guest capacity, and services depend on the individual yacht and provider.

Private Catamaran Charters
A private catamaran charter offers a sailing-oriented experience aboard a vessel with a wider, multi-hull design. It may appeal to groups who prefer a sailing atmosphere and space to enjoy time together on the water.
Compare the vessel specifications, capacity, itinerary, and inclusions rather than choosing based on the vessel name alone.
Popular Private Routes
Private charters may offer opportunities to explore destinations around Saint Martin and nearby islands, subject to the operator’s route, weather, and travel requirements.
Anguilla
A nearby island destination that may be included in selected private excursions. Check international travel and entry requirements for your nationality before booking.
Tintamarre
An island destination near Saint Martin that may feature in selected boating and snorkeling itineraries.
Pinel Island
A popular destination near the French side, known for its coastal setting and opportunities to enjoy time by the water.
Not every charter visits all these locations. Confirm the route, stops, travel requirements, and any additional costs directly from the selected charter listing.
