Yacht Charter Vacation - Activities

Be as active or as passive as you choose - Swim, snorkel, waterski, kayak, shop, land that big fish you've dreamed about, kayak a cove, hike the hills, tour an island, windsurf, learn to sail, dance 'til dawn, beachcomb, snooze, scuba, explore a remote village, golf, or just "lime"... the  West Indian word for the sheer joy of doing absolutely NOTHING!
Everything you need is already aboard… no chasing around to rent this or try that. And best of all, your own personal watersports instructor is always right there with you.

Snorkeling: Exploring the wild blue under is a must, and our yachts have snorkel gear aboard. If you’re a novice, your crew will be right by your side teaching you the basics. For the experienced snorkeler, your crew will show you the sights, delighting you with a daily feast for the eyes. We’ve had many non-swimmers learn to snorkel!

Scuba diving: There’s nothing quite like diving from the deck of your own private yacht with your personal divemaster.In additional to the privacy and personal service, there’s no pre-determined schedule that you have to fit into, and you get to sample some off-the-beaten track dive sites. The divemaster chooses the dives according to your level of experience and preferences. Your yacht will anchor right at the dive site or nearby where the site is a short dinghy ride away. The inclusions and equipment vary from yacht to yacht so be sure to ask us for details.

Waterskiing, tubing, wakeboarding, kneeboarding: Your crew makes it easy for you. They set you up, you yell "hit it", and soon you're whizzing around the bay.

Learn to Sail: Our captains welcome you to join in and willingly teach you the ropes. Some of our captains are certified instructors and can offer you a very structured course if that’s what you are looking for.

Fishing: The majority of our sailing yachts carry light fishing gear and will often troll a line while underway. Most megayachts and superyachts tow 25-35 foot towed tenders that are fully equipped for sportfishing. We also have a select number of yachts that offer flyfishing. Bonefishing guides are available in some of our ports of call. Yum! We can taste that fresh grilled Mahi Mahi right now!

Land Ho! The yacht’s tender is always on standby to take you to and from shore. Our yachts typically anchor very near to the shoreside attractions where everything is within walking distance. In fact, most of the time, we anchor so close to the beach that you can swim ashore. Whether you’re looking for shopping, golf, tennis, hiking trails, a romantic hideaway, a roulette table or a sundowner special, the crew will point you in the right direction… or lead you there… whichever you prefer.
