Your Gateway to the Pearl of the Caribbean
St. Barthélemy, affectionately known as St. Barth, is not just an island; it is a lifestyle. Often described as the "Saint-Tropez of the Caribbean," this volcanic rock surrounded by turquoise waters is the ultimate playground for the world's elite. But you don't need to own a superyacht to live the billionaire lifestyle for a day.
With Funseaker, established in the region since 2012, you can embark on an exclusive St Barth private yacht charter. Whether you are staying in St. Martin, Anguilla, or already on the island of St. Barth, our fleet of luxury power catamarans and speedboats is at your service. We invite you to escape the crowds, forget the ferry schedules, and step aboard for a fully customized day of adventure, gastronomy, and relaxation.
Why choose a standard boat tour when you can have a tailor-made experience? At Funseaker, we own our boats, we train our crew, and we guarantee a level of service that turns a simple day at sea into the highlight of your vacation.
Discover St. Barth: A Blend of French Chic and Caribbean Beauty
When you charter a yacht to St. Barth, you are visiting one of the most unique islands in the West Indies. The island offers a perfect duality: the untouched, wild beauty of its marine reserves and the sophisticated, high-end glamour of its capital.
Gustavia: The Historical Capital & Shopping Paradise
Your charter will likely stop at Gustavia, the island's iconic harbor. Steeped in history, Gustavia was actually a Swedish colony from 1784 to 1878, which explains the names of the streets and the three crowns on the coat of arms. Today, the red-roofed buildings house one of the world's premier luxury shopping districts.
Stepping off your private boat into Gustavia is an experience in itself. You will find yourself walking alongside billionaires and celebrities. The streets are lined with the finest boutiques: Hermès, Cartier, Prada, Louis Vuitton, and Rolex often feature custom collections found only here. Whether you are looking for a unique gift or simply want to stroll through the most elegant town in the Caribbean, Gustavia is a must-see.
The Playground of the Stars
St. Barth has been attracting the jet-set since the 1960s (Rockefeller, Nureyev) and remains the winter sanctuary for Hollywood stars and business tycoons. From the mega-yachts anchored in the bay to the hidden villas of Roman Abramovich near Gouverneur Beach, the island exudes exclusivity. Even the late French rock legend Johnny Hallyday chose this paradise as his final resting place. By chartering a private boat, you gain front-row seats to this world of luxury.
The Beaches and the Marine Reserve: Nature at its Best
St. Barth offers 14 pristine beaches, each with its own character. The beauty of a private charter is that you can access the secluded spots that are difficult or impossible to reach by car.
Colombier & Ile Fourchue: Snorkeling Havens
Anse de Colombier: Accessible only by a rugged hike or by boat, this bay is a sanctuary of peace. The water is crystal clear, and it is the best spot on the island to swim with sea turtles, stingrays, and starfish.
Ile Fourchue: Located between St. Martin and St. Barth, this barren, moon-like island offers a dramatic landscape and exceptional visibility underwater. It is a favorite stop for our captains.
Saline and Gouverneur: Wild Beauty
If you prefer untouched landscapes, ask your captain to cruise past Saline Beach or Gouverneur Beach. Surrounded by dunes and green hills, these beaches offer a wilder, more rugged backdrop, perfect for those seeking privacy and serenity away from the beach clubs.
The Funseaker Difference: Water Toys & Onboard Entertainment
We believe that a luxury charter should never be boring. "Fun" is in our name and in our DNA. While other boats might offer a simple mask and snorkel, Funseaker transforms the ocean into your private water park.
Unmatched Selection of Water Toys
We pride ourselves on having the best-equipped boats in the region.
- On our Catamarans: Expect more than 20 different water activities
- On our Speedboats: Enjoy at least 10 different toys
Imagine the scene: the boat is anchored in a turquoise bay. The music is playing your favorite playlist on our high-end sound system. You jump onto a giant floating carpet, drink in hand (perhaps a fresh Piña Colada?), while your friends race on underwater scooters (Seabobs). Others might be exploring the reef from the comfort of a transparent crystal kayak or testing their balance on a stand-up paddleboard. For the thrill-seekers, we offer tubing, waterskiing, and wakeboarding.
Our crew is not just there to drive the boat; they are there to create the atmosphere. With a great sense of humor, professional service, and a supply of disguises and festive accessories, they ensure the vibe is exactly what you want—whether it's a romantic escape or a full-blown party.
Fine Dining: Lunch Like a Local or Dine in Privacy
Gastronomy is a central part of the St. Barth experience. During your booking, you can choose how you want to spend your lunch hour.
The Beach Club Experience
St. Barth is famous for its festive beach restaurants. We can drop you off directly on the sand at St. Jean Beach, famous for the iconic plane landings nearby.
- Nikki Beach: The world-famous beach club. Expect champagne showers, dancing on tables, and a high-energy party atmosphere.
- Gipsy Beach: A trendy, boho-chic spot with excellent food and a vibrant vibe.
- Shellona (Shell Beach): Located in Gustavia, famous for its floor made of millions of seashells and its sunset views.
Private Dining Onboard
If you prefer to maximize your time on the water and avoid the crowds, we can arrange a gourmet lunch onboard. This is exclusively available on our larger vessels like the VOGUE 51 Power Catamaran. Enjoy a meal catered to your preferences while anchored in a secluded cove, with nothing but the sound of the waves and your favorite music.
Logistics, Safety, and Fleet
From St. Martin to St. Barth
While Funseaker was born in St. Barth, our fleet is strategically based in St. Martin. This allows us to serve clients from both islands and Anguilla. The crossing from St. Martin to St. Barth takes approximately 45 minutes to 1 hour depending on sea conditions. Our boats, like the Stellar 34 and Vogue 51, are built for these waters, ensuring a smooth and comfortable ride across the channel.
Safety First
Your safety is our absolute priority. We adhere to the strictest maritime regulations:
- Government Certified: Our vessels undergo rigorous annual safety inspections by maritime authorities.
- Trained Crew: All Funseaker crew members are fully vaccinated and trained in first aid and emergency response.
- Maintenance: As boat owners (not just brokers), we maintain our fleet meticulously to ensure reliability and comfort.
Special Events: The Golden Hour and Regattas
Sunset & Champagne
The return trip is often the most magical part of the day. As the sun begins to set, the "Golden Hour" paints the sky in shades of orange and pink. This is the perfect time for a glass of champagne or rosé wine. For guests seeking the ultimate romantic gesture or celebration, we can arrange a private live music concert onboard. Imagine a saxophonist or a guitarist playing your favorite songs as you cruise back to the marina—a lifetime memory at a fraction of the cost of a large venue.
Follow the Races
St. Barth hosts some of the most prestigious sailing races in the world. Chartering a powerboat is the best way to watch the action from the front row. Join us for:
- The St. Barths Bucket Regatta (March)
- Les Voiles de Saint Barth (April)
- The Saint Barth Cata Cup (November)
