Rates
Rates vary on time of year, availability, number of passengers and desired experience. A typical rate is $200/hour. A few examples below, but much prefer to customize a trip to maximize your day on the water. Fishing, then lunch? Cookout on Cayo Costa? Send me an email to discuss dates, times, interests of passengers and we will recommend some ideas based on weather, crowds, ages of passengers and desired experience.
Here some some “examples” of private charters. Each charter is customizable and tailored to maximize what you want to do and see! All Charters below are based on a maximum of six (6) passengers. Keep in mind, we DO NOT offer “group tours" with shared customers. Once boat, one private charter.
