Private yachts, catamarans and sport fishing charters — the top tier of everything we list, booked direct with the captain.
Every trip below is $1,250 or more and is drawn live from the same catalogue as the rest of the site. There is no separate hand-curated list to go stale — when an operator changes a price or pulls a date, this page changes with it.
$1,250 is roughly the top ten percent of our Puerto Rico inventory: the median tour on this site is $135. Almost all of these are private or whole-boat hire, so the figure is usually for the vessel and your whole party rather than per person. Check the operator’s own page for what a given price covers.
Most of it sails out of Fajardo on the east coast, which is the jumping-off point for Icacos, Palomino, Culebra and Vieques — the islands that make a full-day private charter worth the money.

On this page, nearly always the whole boat. A $2,800 full-day charter to Culebra is the vessel, the captain and your group — often up to eight or thirteen people — not a per-head rate. That is what makes the tier worth looking at for a family or a group: split six ways, a private charter can land close to the cost of a shared tour, with none of the schedule.
It varies by operator, but private charters in this range commonly include the captain and crew, fuel, snorkel gear, and food and drink — several list a BBQ lunch and unlimited rum punch. None of that is standardised, so read the operator’s inclusions on their own booking page before you assume it.
Further than a shared tour. There is one of each boat, and the good captains in Fajardo fill weekends and holiday weeks well in advance. If your dates are fixed, check availability early rather than close to the trip.
We earn a commission from the operator when you book through us, and it costs you nothing extra — the price is the operator’s own. We do not take payment, hold your reservation or set cancellation terms; all of that is between you and the boat.
