Taking us to snorkeling locations with so much to see and it felt safe to swim there. It was perfect. Even though Captain John was very knowledgeable and very attentive to our needs. JulieAnna’s sublime cooking and presentation is top on my feedback when I’m recounting my trips highlights to my friends. She truly made this an amazing experience.

A week on Serenity with John + Bryny makes you forget your worries for a bit. Snorkeling, swimming, a drink or two, and fabulous food made by Bryny will make it hard to leave, but easy to come back. - Tim, Stacy, John, Emily, Jim, Holly

What an amazing first trip to the BVI! So grateful to have John and Bryny to give us an expert tour of the islands. We even got to go conch shell hunting on Anegada with Sherwin and make fresh ceviche. You're in a good hands on the Serenity! - Ben T.

Ended up being my favorite trip of all time. I don't think I could have asked for a better captain or first mate. I loved snorkeling, knee boarding and wake boarding with Bryny. Thank you for the trip of a lifetime! And the food was TOP TIER! - Parker B.

Incredible Trip

My family and I loved this trip! Although the weather made some activities difficult, we still had a lot of fun and time to relax (which we all needed!) Beautiful nights, yummy food, pretty water and good strong drinks! Thank you guys for making this trip fun, relaxing, and memorable. The service was great. Both of you made us feel very welcome and comfortable! Thank you for a wonderful start to the new Year! - Santos family

Wonderful Start
“

Our captain John Yoxall was quite simply the best skipper we've ever sailed with. The safety of his guests was always priority #1 throughout the charter… We came to realize that John considers one of his roles as skipper to be Ambassador to the BVI for his guests, a role he performed beyond expectations… We had an informal talk every morning about what to do that day, including John's wonderfully entertaining stories about the history of the BVI. His stories were so much fun that one of our guests promptly began videotaping him…In terms of drinks, not only was the wine and beer we requested available, but John mixed up a different, delicious Caribbean concoction for us every night, all of which were new to us. In fact, it's safe to say that John's talents on the grille were exceeded only by his bartending skills. His wine selections were well received by our group, especially the reds. And after dinner, port was served every night, our favorite!

Quite Simply The Best

Good to know

We want to make sure you are well prepared and informed for your trip. Here are a few things you might want to know before you set off.
An APA (Advanced Provisioning Allowance) is an amount paid to the yacht before your charter. It's a fund to cover expenses such as food & drink eaten on board, fuel and mooring fees. At the end of your charter, you’ll receive a detailed document showing how the APA was spent, and any remaining balance will be refunded to you. if in doubt about what is included, ask your HELM broker.
The Captain will let you know if you're about to overspend and discuss your next steps, which wil generally be a bank transfer to top up the funds.
We recommend (10-15% for the Med) (15-20% for the Caribbean/Bahamas) of your charter fee, which will be split evenly among the crew (it's a nice touch to bring a blank envelope or a thank you card in advance).
We'll share your Captain's details with you a few weeks before your charter. We can set up a group chat with your group and the captain to discuss plans before you go.
