About this experience

Ideal for those with limited time, early departures, or guests who prefer a shorter time on the water without giving up the private charter experience. Spend a half day on one of the gorgeous keys of Icacos, Palomino, or Piñero — just a short 20 to 30 minute ride from Safe Harbor Puerto del Rey Marina, one of the most prestigious marinas on the island. Enjoy our stunning Albemarle, the Carolina Classic 36-ft Express Yacht. The vessel itself is part of the experience. Built for offshore waters — powerful, stable, and designed to handle the ride comfortably. The covered cockpit is where the day happens: spacious, shaded, and set up for relaxing and taking in the Caribbean from every angle. The cabin below provides a bathroom and storage when you need it, while the cockpit stays open, airy, and entirely yours.
