Private Yacht Charter Fajardo to Icacos: No Crowds

Anchor offshore at an island without another boat in sight

A private 36-foot yacht departs Fajardo for Icacos, Palomino or Piñero, carrying only your group. You choose the island, set the pace and swim or snorkel in clear water while the crew handles navigation and meals. A licensed captain and crew manage the boat. You decide when to stay and when to move on.

Step-by-step itinerary

Private yacht tour to Fajardo Keys

• Relax with food, beverages, and music
• Return from island visit

The experience

Icacos sits in the Caribbean off Fajardo's coast, and getting there on your own terms means renting the boat outright. The 36-foot yacht carries your group alone: no strangers, no departure bells, no itinerary carved in stone. You pick which island appeals (Icacos, Palomino or Piñero), and the captain plots the course while you settle into the open cockpit under shade or climb to the bow to watch the water. The cabin has a bathroom and storage for bags. A cooler with ice keeps drinks cold all day.

Snorkeling gear is on board, and the crew sets out lunch made fresh that morning. The basic tour includes light fare and snacks, though you can add a BBQ spread when you book. Bottled water and soda flow throughout the six hours. The boat moves only when your group is ready, which means you can anchor at one island for as long as the day allows instead of racing to three stops on someone else's schedule. A licensed captain and crew handle all the seamanship. You handle the decisions.

Bring your own alcohol if you want it (red wine is the only exception), and leave the logistics to the crew. Service animals travel free. Infants sit on an adult's lap. The tour runs in English or Spanish, and the boat suits families, friends marking a birthday or bachelorette, and anyone tired of herded group tours.

Top questions

What languages is the tour guided in?

Live guide in English and Spanish.

What happens if it rains?

It may be canceled due to bad weather. If that happens, you're offered another date or a refund. Free cancellation up to 24 h before the start.

What's the water like for snorkeling at Icacos?

Icacos sits in shallow, clear Caribbean water where snorkeling happens right off the boat. The reef and sandy bottom are visible from the surface, and the crew provides all equipment: mask, fins and snorkel included in the tour price.

Can I bring my dog on the yacht?

Yes, dogs are welcome aboard. The open deck and bow give them room to move, and the crew will work with you to keep your pet comfortable during the six-hour outing.

How does the food work? Is it cooked on the boat?

The basic tour includes light lunch and snacks prepared fresh before departure and kept cold in the onboard cooler. You can add a BBQ option when you book if you want a heartier meal, and the crew will have it ready to serve during the day.

What if I want to stay longer at one island instead of visiting multiple ones?

The captain follows your group's pace, not a fixed schedule. If you want to spend most of the six hours at Icacos or Palomino, that's your call. The boat doesn't move until you're ready.

Is there shade on the boat, or will I be in the sun the whole time?

The open cockpit has a shade canopy, and the cabin offers shelter too. The bow is open to the sun for anyone who wants it, so you can move between sun and shade throughout the day.
