Your Day on the Water

Every charter is tailored around your group, the day's conditions, and the destinations you'd most like to experience. The sample itinerary below illustrates how your day on the water may unfold.

Choose Your Place Aboard

Meet the crew at your confirmed boarding point and explore Mer-Sea’s gathering spaces. Settle into the salon or shaded flybridge as the captain introduces the planned route

The Flybridge Perspective

Watch the shoreline unfold from the yacht’s elevated deck. The broad views make the passage part of the experience, with drinks and conversation accompanying the cruise

At Anchor, at Your Pace

At a suitable stop, choose snorkeling, kayaking, paddleboarding, or time on the LilyPad. Guests who prefer to stay aboard can watch the anchorage from the shade

Gather for the Onboard Menu

Return to ceviche, guacamole, and the dishes included with your charter length. The cook and bartender keep the service moving while the group gathers between activities

The Coast in Changing Light

Enjoy the return from the flybridge or cool salon. A sunset departure can place this final passage in the evening light, with the timing agreed before the charter
