If you're looking for Bermuda boat charters, there's one boat built specifically for groups who want to actually have a day out together. The Pontune Paradise. Two decks, up to 25 guests, an inflatable water slide off the side, BYOB, and a licensed captain who knows every cove on the island. We ain't fancy. We fun. Here's what a charter looks like and how to book one.

Who a Bermuda boat charter is for

Birthdays, bachelorette and bachelor parties, family reunions, company days, or a group of friends who just want the best afternoon of the trip. The Pontune Paradise carries up to 25 guests on two decks, so you don't have to split the group across boats or leave anyone on the dock. It's the boat people book when the whole point is being together on the water.

The Sunset Cruise: four hours into golden hour

Cast off in the afternoon, drift through a couple of swim stops, and end the run as the sun melts into Bermuda's turquoise. Four hours, up to 25 guests, the slide stays open the whole time, big cooler on ice, life jackets aboard, and your licensed captain handling everything. You bring the people and the drinks. We bring the boat and the spots.

The Day Cruise and Snorkel: eight hours, your private island day

A full Bermuda day on the water. Eight hours, up to 25 guests, hopping between Castle Harbour, the Vixen Wreck, Cambridge Beaches, Pompano Beach and Grotto Bay. Slide, snorkel gear, cooler, captain and fuel all included. It's the closest thing to having your own private island, except you get to move it around all day.

How much does a Bermuda boat charter cost?

Pricing depends on the season, the day, and whether you want the four hour sunset run or the full eight hour cruise. The simplest way to get a straight number is to message Sean with your date and headcount, and you'll get a real quote, not a runaround. Popular summer dates book up early, so it pays to lock yours in.

Frequently asked questions

How many people can the boat hold?

Up to 25 guests on the Pontune Paradise, across two decks. That's the whole crew on one boat, no splitting the group or leaving anyone behind.

Is there a captain or do I drive it myself?

Every charter comes with a licensed captain. You focus on your group and your day. The captain handles the boat, the spots, and getting everyone home safe.

Can we bring our own food and drinks?

Yes, BYOB is welcome, just no glass on board. There's a big cooler with ice ready to go, so bring what you like and we'll keep it cold.
