At Red Baron Charters, we’ve spent countless hours sailing the pristine waters of St. Maarten/St. Martin, creating unforgettable wildlife watching adventures for our guests. Our luxurious catamaran charter provides the perfect platform for encountering some of the Caribbean’s most captivating marine creatures.
Dolphins at Play
One of the most exhilarating wildlife experiences on our charters is witnessing playful dolphins leaping and dancing alongside our catamaran. Bottlenose and spinner dolphins frequently visit the waters around St. Martin, often surfacing in playful pods, delighting both children and adults alike. Early morning or late afternoon sails offer the best opportunities to observe these joyful creatures, as they gracefully ride the bow waves and create lasting memories.
Majestic Sea Turtles
The tranquil bays and sandy beaches around St. Maarten/St. Martin are vital habitats for endangered sea turtles, including the green turtle, hawksbill turtle, and loggerhead turtle. Our expert crew at Red Baron Charters knows the best snorkeling spots where you can safely and respectfully observe these gentle giants grazing on seagrass beds or gliding gracefully beneath the waves. Orient Bay and Tintamarre Island are particularly popular locations for encountering sea turtles up close.
Vibrant Coral Reefs
The underwater world of St. Martin is vibrant and diverse, boasting coral reefs teeming with colorful marine life. On our private charters, we stop at prime snorkeling sites such as Creole Rock and Little Bay, where guests can explore stunning coral formations and meet tropical fish like parrotfish, angelfish, and the elusive spotted eagle ray. Each snorkeling session offers a mesmerizing encounter with the natural beauty beneath the Caribbean Sea.
Seabird Sanctuaries
St. Maarten/St. Martin is also home to diverse seabird populations. Birdwatching enthusiasts onboard Red Baron Charters frequently spot magnificent frigatebirds, brown pelicans, and elegant terns soaring above the waves. The island of Tintamarre, in particular, is a sanctuary for seabirds, providing a safe nesting ground away from predators. A day spent sailing around this untouched island delivers excellent opportunities for bird photography and peaceful nature watching.
Whale Watching Wonders
Seasonally, from January through April, our waters welcome migrating humpback whales. Witnessing these majestic mammals breaching and slapping their tails on the ocean surface is an awe-inspiring experience and a highlight of our wildlife charters. While whale sightings are less predictable, our crew knows where and when you’re most likely to encounter these gentle giants during their annual migration.
