5.00Captain Sam was great! The boat was clean, drinks were well-stocked. Captain Sam was able to provide suggestions for our itinerary. He adjusted based on the winds and sea conditions. We went to Anguilla- pre-registered and the process was seamless. Would highly recommend!!!
Great choice got our group

5.00My daughter and I had a private tour around St. Martin and loved it! We had a fantastic time and went snorkeling, walking along the shore outside of the Belmond, eating at a floating cafe(!) and had such a great time! Sam was amazing!
Best time in Saint Martin!

5.00This was our third trip with Powerboat Adventures in Saint Maartens. We were on a cruise and his business was easy walking from the port. Because we were there before we had some suggestions as to what we wanted to do plus requests for something different. The day was marvelous, the boat was lovely and whole experience was well suited to the 3 generations onboard. There were 2 teenagers, their parents and us, the grandparents. Three trips and zero complaints, very professional company and mindful of getting you back to port in time for departure. 5 stars!!
The best custom boating experience!

5.00Ask Sam about lunch at Pinel Island if you have the time! Amazing French restaurant and pick your live 🦞! Also, the beautiful island to see Sea Turtles and Iguanas!
Perfect private boat excursion

5.00We had a fantastic morning with Captain Sam. He took us to three beautiful beaches with great snorkeling and swimming. He was thoughtful and knowledgeable and the boat was perfectly equipped. We were a family of 10 ranging in ages from 12 to 74 and he picked us up outside our cruise ship harbor and dropped us off closer to Marigot — recommending an incredible lunch spot (Be Kool). Highly recommended for a great day exploring St Maarten!
Family Fun in St. Maarten

Great Excursion

5.00Captain Sam was very responsive to messages regarding our booking. There were 4 of us and we had a 3.5 hour tour. We had great weather and snorkeling options. Alcohol could use upgrades for those not swimming/snorkeling as wine and rum punch was not the best. Also, if doing short excursion then suggest eating before you go or bringing snacks. Overall great experience.
