What your charter includes
WHAT’S INCLUDED
Catering
Breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks, prepared aboard by your chef — built around fresh fish, lobster and octopus bought alongside from Guna fishermen.

Water toys
Paddleboards, kayaks, snorkel gear and fishing tackle, ready whenever you are.
Open bar
Beer, wine, spirits and soft drinks, included throughout. We stock generously and nobody counts your drinks — it’s a house bar rather than an unlimited premium one. Want a specific bottle aboard? Tell us before we provision and it’ll be there.
Accommodation

Connectivity
Connectivity and Starlink availability are confirmed for your selected boat in the written quote.
