Sail privately to Pinel Island — St. Martin's most idyllic offshore gem — for world-class snorkelling over Creole Rock reefs, powdery shores, and chilled rosé under a sun sail. Quintessential French Caribbean at its most effortless and exclusive.
What to expect
Board a sleek catamaran right in Simpson Bay or Marigot harbour and glide to the protected waters around Pinel Island, a short 20-minute sail. Snorkel the famous Creole Rock coral gardens teeming with parrotfish, angelfish and sea turtles. Back on board, the crew pours chilled local Lorion rosé and lays out a charcuterie spread as you drift in a turquoise lagoon. The return sail at golden hour — with the twin peaks of the island silhouetted behind you — is the photograph you came for.
Good to know
Departs Marigot or Simpson Bay; confirm departure point when booking. Full-day charters run ~6 hrs — leave a 90-min buffer before all-aboard. Pre-book the private charter at least 2 weeks ahead in high season (Dec–Apr). Water shoes recommended for Creole Rock entry.
