Three Charters, Three Different Kinds of Time on the Water

A short evening on the bay, a full day in the water with tanks and fins, or four days at sea with a cook and a crew. Each charter is built around a distinct purpose.

How Each Charter Is Prepared

Every charter begins with a planning conversation. We want to understand the group — size, preferences, whether anyone is a first-time sailor or a diver — so the departure is shaped around the people on it, not around a standard template.

In the days before departure, we review weather and tidal forecasts, confirm provisioning, and carry out a final vessel check. The safety briefing is given at the dock before departure, covering emergency equipment, communication procedures, and basic vessel orientation.

Our approach is to prepare thoroughly and then let the charter develop at its own pace. The sea tends to reward people who arrive without a rigid agenda.

Planning Consultation

Weather Review

Conditions assessed 48 hours before departure; charter rescheduled if unsafe

Vessel Preparation

Safety Briefing
