We had the most incredible day aboard the Flagship II catamaran — truly one of the highlights of our trip. From start to finish, everything was seamless and so thoughtfully done. We were treated to a delicious breakfast, snacks throughout the day, and a wonderful lunch, all while enjoying the stunning surroundings. Captain George and his first mate were absolutely exceptional — warm, attentive, and made the entire experience feel both relaxed and special. The group on board was fantastic, which only added to the fun and easygoing atmosphere. It’s hard to imagine a better way to spend a day on the water. An unforgettable experience that we would recommend without hesitation — we will absolutely be back.

It was amazing! The crew kept us safe, fed and entertained throughout the day. Would definitely book again!
We would definitely recommend this day trip to anyone visiting St.Maarten. The operators, Ben and Georgia, were amazing and ran a class operation. The food and drinks were excellent too. But really, Ben and Georgia made this trip very special for our family. They run a very clean boat, are very knowledgeable about the island, make excellent food, and are really great hosts. We will make this part of our routine next time we visit the island.
Such an amazing experience! The crew was friendly, attentive, and kept the vibes going all day. We enjoyed an open bar, lunch, snacks, and dessert while snorkeling, paddleboarding, swimming, and exploring beautiful beaches around the island. Everything was well organized, fun, and relaxing. Definitely a 10/10 experience and highly recommend! 🌊☀️🍹
This was the best experience ever! My friend and I enjoyed every bit of it. The food and drinks were so fresh. The crew were amazing! The rest of the group were great too!
Ben and Georgia were a lot of fun and a great host. The snacks and food were good and open bar with a fun selection to choose from. The boat was more of a family atmosphere and not one of a party so I wouldn’t choose this if you’re looking to turn up,. It was great for a relaxing day and also great opportunity to swim in the ocean and feed some fish. We didn’t swim with the sea turtles. I would definitely go back and highly recommend.
Amazing day! Great catamaran, and Captain Benjamin and Chef Georgia were awesome!! They took us to beautiful beaches, cooked amazing meals, full open bar. Every detail was attended to.
I loved this experience! It was top tier and I would book again if visiting the island! The food was amazing and the service was impeccable!
Good food, drinks, service. Snorkeling was very good. We specifically chose this trip because the number of attendees was limited which meant that there was plenty of room to sit in shade or sun as you wish. Would highly recommend. Note that there is a $20 fee for parking you should plan on.
Fantastic day from Alouis, Georgia and IG! 10 out of 10 day, from start to finish!
Started with snorkeling in the bluest water we've ever seen. Fully accommodating to dietary restrictions and more picky child needs, full bar (including caramel frappes!), great rum punch all day!
A gourmet lunch was the high point, following the 3rd snorkel spot at an island nature reserve!
What an amazing day, we were fully taken care of, and we are so grateful for the crew and the beautiful day and natural environment. Thank you Alouis, Georgia and IG!!!!!
It was a great experience for our family, even the baby! The crew made it a fun time and made it appropriate with a baby!
Benjamin and his wife Georgia were great hosts. Throughout the excursion they were treating us with snacks and drinks and took us to three locations to snorkel and swim. Always making sure of our safety. Georgia prepared all of our food and snacks they were excellent.
This was absolutely the most awesome boat excursion we have ever been on and we have been on many. The crew was fantastic, the boat was great, food was excellent and plentiful as were the drinks. Sail and stops were so enjoyable. Small group and everyone had a great time with each other. Not to be missed!!!
5-Stars!!! I booked this for a 40th birthday celebration and it didn’t disappoint. There were 8 of us total and we enjoyed every minute of it.
Benjamin and George provided the best experience. They were very hospitable and George made the most delicious food for us.
Thank you for the best time!
The spots was beautiful the service was 10/10, there should be a rule that the captain don’t smoke marijuana while sailing the waves were bigger than normal rather than go slow he steam thru the rocky water people (thanks to a lucky save from a friend someone was save from a bad fall) and stuff was flying all over, that latest for about 10 minutes until he was notified to go slower then the sailing was pleasant again such unnecessary choice for professional service.. please do better you have an amazing package
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING experience! Would do again!! Ten out of ten!! Lovely captain and chef…who did way more than make food! Great amenities. We were fortunate to have a small group. What a lovely experience! Thank you!!!
It’s a fun, relaxing day. Plenty of good food. Be ready to talk to strangers and have some fun with them.
We had a fantastic day sailing around St. Maarten. The food was delicious and made right there on the boat for us to enjoy! The small group size (capped at 15 people) made for a very relaxing vibe. We can't wait to book this tour again next year!

Felt like spending the day on the water with friends. From the moment we stepped on board, everything was so personalized, intimate, and incredibly relaxing. The captain was beyond hospitable and thoughtful, adjusting the plan because of choppy water and taking us to the best, most comfortable spots for snorkeling. The skipper was so sweet, and the whole experience just felt easy, like hanging out with friends who had everything handled.
The food was amazing, fresh, organic, and beautifully prepared. He even made his own salad dressing. We had fresh fruit and little shots throughout the day, which made it feel extra special.
Then the locations, absolutely stunning. We visited some of the most beautiful beaches, and at times it felt like we had our own private beach. The snorkeling was a highlight, swimming out to see the underwater statues and feeding fish right from our hands. Every stop felt thoughtfully chosen and added to how special the day was.
Hands down the best way to end our trip in St. Martin. Worth every penny and would absolutely book again.
The crew, Benjamin and Aloise, are excellent! Food was delicious and healthy - fresh fruit, pastries, snacks, curry chicken for lunch and dessert after the last snorkeling stop. The daysail is limited to 15 passengers but there were only 9 on our sail. Plenty of room for 6 more. I’ve been on 5 or 6 daysails and this was easily the most luxurious. Would book with them again without hesitation.
A great day out with a great crew. 9 hours disappeared in a flash. Super food too! Sea was a little choppy but Ben navigated it superbly and found us a calm space for lunch. Georgia was an amazing horsey too! Also, what a fantastic boat!
This experience exceeded our expectations! From the get go, Georgia and Benjamin were professional, friendly and accommodating and made sure that the day went smoothly and was enjoyable for all. The food was wonderful, and especially impressive given that we were on a boat. Benjamin was knowledgeable and brought us to all of the best spots at times when they were not busy. Drinks were flowing and Georgia made sure we had everything we needed. Would definitely recommend!
Very good experience, great food, welcoming staff and the very best Valentine’s Day!
Thank you so much to the crew and to the owner who is very nice and genuine.
You guy’s made our trip to the Caribbean wonderful!
Book it! Amazing day and service and food was excellent. We highly recommend! Thank you Georgia. We will be back.
Great trip with a fabulous Captain and crew. The food was delicious, and the service was outstanding. We enjoyed the three lovely beaches and our time onboard the catamaran.
This day was so nice, the crew were amazing and took very good care of us. We had 10 people in our group and there was plenty of room on the boat for everyone. We also had some people with gluten allergies and they were able to eat 90% of the food!! There was a good selection of drinks and we were definitely well fed. It even rained on us for a little bit but everyone still had a good time. On our last stop, the captain when to snorkel with a few people who wanted to feed the fish by hand and showed us how to do it and it was a core memory by the end of the day. I would recommend this to any group looking to spend time out on the water!!
This trip was cancelled as we were waiting to be picked up from the meeting point. We woke up early and drove almost an hour. When we got there the captain told us the trip was cancelled due to weather and that Viator would reimburse us. I sent a message and no one replied. I am still waiting to get reimbursed.
Response from Host, Dec 2025
I'm sorry that the charter didn't work out as planned and that there was a delay in dealing with this issue. I was not working on Christmas day, and that evening I had a family emergency that has occupied my time until today. I have contacted Viator, and you will receive a full refund from them.
As for the charter, unfortunately, as St Martin is a small island with microclimates, it is often hard to get an accurate weather prediction. But we would rather take a loss on a charter than have guests stuck on the boat on a miserable day.
Once again, we are sorry for the delay and any inconvenience this may have caused you and your family
We were scheduled to sail on a Saturday but it was canceled due to a charging battery that overheated. So we were able to reschedule to Monday on a C/O trip with a smaller group and had a fantastic day with Alois and Benjamin. The other guests were also alot of fun and we made some new friends. The weather was perfect and saw a turtle. Stops at Long Bay, Happy Bay, and Tintamarre. We then sailed the rest of the way around the island. Hopefully we can do it again next year.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Incredible Luxury Catamaran Experience!
We went on a luxury catamaran cruise in St. Martin yesterday, and it was beyond amazing! Captain Benjamin and Georgia were the perfect hosts—fun, welcoming, and full of great energy. They made the entire day unforgettable.
We snorkeled in crystal-clear water, fed the fish right from our hands, and visited some of the most beautiful beaches on the island. Every stop felt like a postcard.
The food alone was worth the trip! They served us a delicious breakfast, a snack, and then a full four-course lunch that felt like something from a high-end restaurant—on a boat! Everything was fresh, beautifully prepared, and so generous.
If you want a relaxing, fun, and truly memorable day on the water, this catamaran cruise is a MUST. Captain Benjamin and Georgia made it an experience we’ll never forget. Highly recommend! 🌴⛵️🐠
The captin and crew were fantastic. The boat was spacious and clean. The food was delicious. And the VIews were majestic.. honestly on of the greatest experiences for my family and I.
