The bow parts a honeyed swell as you leave Safe Harbour marina; wind and wake shape the first hour’s rhythm while the coastline of eastern Puerto Rico slides aft. On this Intrepid 47' charter you move fast enough to cross channels to Palomino or Culebra, and slow enough to listen to the crew call out a sea turtle or a dorsal fin.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a captain or can I rent bareboat?

US Coast Guard rules require qualified operators for bareboat charters; the operator can refer vetted captains or you may bring licensed crew.

What islands can we reach in six hours?

Typical options include Palomino for beach time or a fast run to Flamenco or other spots near Culebra; final routing depends on sea conditions.

Is snorkeling gear included?

Basic snorkeling equipment is provided by the operator, but you may bring personal masks for fit and comfort.

How is fuel handled?

Fuel is replenished by the renter based on usage; your hired captain will usually coordinate refueling for you.

History

Fajardo’s maritime role dates back to Taíno fishing communities and Spanish-era shipping; its modern marina culture grew with 20th-century tourism and island hops to the Spanish Virgin Islands.

Conservation

Many local reefs are in protected zones—follow no-anchoring buoys, avoid touching coral, and use reef-safe products to minimize impact.

Adventure tips

Book early for island permitsPopular runs to Culebra and Palomino sometimes require beach or mooring permits—confirm routing with the operator before departure.

Bring reef-safe sunscreenUse mineral-based sunscreen and a rash guard to protect coral and avoid fines in protected areas.

Expect motion and sprayEven on calm days the open channel can be choppy; bring a light waterproof layer and secure loose items.

Hydrate and pace alcoholSix hours under sun and wind dehydrates quickly—carry water and limit alcohol until after swimming and snorkeling.

Recommended gear

Reef-safe sunscreen: Protects skin and coral; required in many marine reserves.
Swimwear and quick-dry towel: For snorkeling, swimming, and drying off between stops.
Light waterproof jacket or windbreaker: Keeps you comfortable in brisk channel breezes or brief showers.
Dry bag and waterproof phone case: Protects electronics and valuables from spray and splashes.
