The listed charter price covers up to 6 guests. If you’re bringing a larger group, each additional passenger is $50, subject to the yacht’s passenger capacity. Tell us your group size when you book so we can confirm the total and make sure the setup works comfortably for everyone. That gives you a clear headcount cost before departure.
Know What You're
Paying For
Three charters, 3 price points: that’s St. Thomas charter boat pricing at a glance. Now let’s make sure you pick the right one.
Below, we break down who each trip fits best, exactly what’s included, and answer the questions people ask most before booking with Captain Rob.
Know Before You Book
What Your Charter Includes
Comparing St. Thomas boat charter prices is easier when you know what comes with the day. Our captained charters include snorkel gear, plus a cooler with ice and water. You’ll also have access to the yacht’s air-conditioned cabin and bathroom. We bill for fuel separately based on use.
Pricing FAQs
No customs fees apply when your charter stays within the U.S. Virgin Islands. That keeps a USVI day nice and simple: no international border crossing, no visa worries, and no customs stop.
If you’re considering a British Virgin Islands trip, let us know before booking. BVI travel involves different entry requirements and added costs, so we’ll walk you through those details. A USVI-only route keeps your day on the U.S. side.
No, gratuity for the captain and crew is separate from the charter rate. If your crew helps make the day special, a tip is a welcome way to show your appreciation. Keeping gratuity separate also leaves that choice with you, rather than building it into the advertised St. Thomas boat charter prices. You choose the amount based on the service you receive.
If the weather forces us to cancel your trip, we’ll first work with you to find another date. If rescheduling doesn’t work because of availability or scheduling conflicts, we’ll issue a full refund. We’d rather move the trip than send your group out when conditions don’t support a safe, comfortable day. Weather decisions are focused on safety, not forcing the schedule.

A Sunset Charter Made for Two
Three hours, champagne in hand, and nowhere to be but on the water as the sky changes color to golden hour.
This is great for anniversaries, first dates, or a Tuesday that deserves a toast.
Snorkel the Reefs in the USVI or BVI
Four hours puts you in the water at some of the area’s best snorkeling spots.
You’ll literally be face-to-face with sea turtles and reef life that most people only see in photos.
The Whole Day, Your Way
Eight hours means more stops, including time at one of the floating bars for a drink with your feet still wet.
It’s the pick for groups who want to spend the entire day on the water.
Frequently Asked Questions About USVI & BVI Charter Boat Tours
That would be Captain Rob! He’s spent years guiding trips across the USVI and BVI and knows both territories the way a local knows their own backyard.
He knows where (and when) the turtles hang out, which beach is empty at 10 am, and which bar has the better view.
Since this is a private charter, you tell him what kind of day you’re after, and he guides the route around it. Meet him on the Captain Rob page before you book.
Your charter boat experience will be fully private. It’s your group and Captain Rob out there on the water, not a boat full of strangers running on someone else’s schedule.
There’s no set itinerary waiting for you at the dock; you help write the script for your day, whether that means hopping between beaches, chasing sea turtles, or pulling up to a floating bar for a drink with your feet still wet. You set the pace, Captain Rob steers from the helm and gets you to where you want to be.
It is! It’ll just be you and your family, friends. or other loved ones out there.
There’s an air-conditioned cabin to escape the sun, an onboard bathroom, and a baby-safe sleeping area for anyone who needs a nap between beach stops.
A lot of families decide on the half day option specifically, it’s enough time on the water without pushing littler ones past their limit.
Bring more than 6 guests and it’s an extra $50 per person, up to a 10-guest max, plenty of room for the whole crew.
Fuel runs the tab during your time on the water and gets billed to the card on file once you’re back at the dock.
Gratuity’s separate too, always appreciated, and of course, always up to you.
That’s St. Thomas charter boat pricing in full: one clear rate, a few honest add-ons, nothing waiting to surprise you at checkout.
A BVI charter trades U.S. waters for British ones, and the scenery changes with it.
Think The Baths’ giant boulder pools and a stop at Willy T’s floating bar off Norman Island.
It’s a longer stretch of open water to get there, and everyone on board needs a passport since you’re technically leaving the country.
The price runs the same as the matching USVI option; you’re just picking a different horizon. Ask Captain Rob which side of the water fits the day you’re picturing.
Most trips start at our marina in Benner Bay, right on St. Thomas. But if you’re staying over on St. John instead, we can usually meet you in Cruz Bay or Coral Bay.
Just tell Captain Rob where you’re staying when you book, and he’ll find the easiest spot to grab you. That way, there’s no ferry schedules to plan around, no extra fee for picking a different dock. It’s one less thing to figure out after understanding the St. Thomas Charter Boat pricing.
You don’t lose your payment, full stop.
If a storm rolls in, we’ll find a new date that works instead, so a bad forecast just means a rescheduled trip.
Captain Rob keeps an eye on conditions in the days leading up to your charter and will reach out the moment anything changes. Whatever day you rebook lands on, the St. Thomas Charter Boat pricing stays the same.
Two weeks ahead is a safe bet most of the year, and it gives Captain Rob room to lock in your date and pickup spot.
Around the holidays, stretch that to three or four weeks, since those days fill fast. Working with less notice?
Reach out anyway, openings pop up more than you’d think, especially outside peak season, and Captain Rob would rather see you on the water than turn you away.
