The Best Luxury Half-Day Charter in the USVI

A 4-hour island escape with everything included. Just show up and go.

Step aboard Caribe Express, a 36’ Aquila power catamaran built for comfort, style, and fun. This all-inclusive half-day USVI charter is a relaxed 4-hour trip through some of the most beautiful spots in the Virgin Islands, with a friendly crew, open bar, snacks, snorkel gear, floaties, and fuel all included. Departing from St. Thomas or St. John, the trip is fully customizable.

Spend your time snorkeling with sea turtles at Maho Bay, relaxing on the quiet sands of Scott Bay Beach, or floating in clear water near Lovango Cay with a cold drink in hand. With a half-day charter, you still have plenty of time to swim, snorkel, and take in the scenery without committing to a full day on the water.

Caribe Express keeps things simple. No coolers, gear, or planning needed—we’ve got it covered. Whether you’re visiting for the first time, traveling with family, or just looking for a relaxing afternoon on the water, this is an easy way to experience the U.S. Virgin Islands by boat.
