Our private catamaran excursion with Nirvana Sailing Charters was absolutely the highlight of our vacation! We chartered the boat for a wedding group of 20+ people, and Captain Smitty and his mate, Conor, exceeded our expectations in every way.

From the very beginning, communication leading up to the event was excellent, making the entire planning process easy and stress-free. On the day of our excursion, we had a guest in a wheelchair, and Captain Smitty and Conor went above and beyond to accommodate her. They were incredibly kind and attentive, assisting her with getting on and off the boat and helping with her wheelchair so she could fully enjoy the experience.

The catamaran was clean and comfortable, the drinks were delicious, and there were plenty of fun extras like noodles and paddle boards. Captain Smitty took us to an incredible spot for cliff jumping and then to a beautiful private beach where we could snorkel, float, or simply relax in the crystal-clear water. One of the most memorable moments was when Conor swam out to us with rum swizzles while we were in the water!

They also gave us a scenic tour of some of Bermuda’s beautiful homes and knew exactly how to maximize our time, getting us quickly from one location to the next so we had plenty of time to enjoy each stop. As Bermuda locals, they were extremely knowledgeable and made everyone feel comfortable and safe throughout the day.

Captain Smitty and Conor were laid back, easygoing, and truly made the experience feel like a day out with friends. They let us control the music, created a fun and relaxing atmosphere, and made sure everyone had an amazing time.

I cannot recommend Nirvana Sailing Charters highly enough. If you’re visiting Bermuda and looking for an unforgettable experience, do yourself a favor and book a trip. You won’t regret it!

We went with a group of 15 and had an absolutely blast! Captain Smitty was very responsive with any questions I had before hand. The boat was the perfect size for our group! He had paddleboards, snorkel gear, soda products, and a delicious Rum drink. We got to jump off the boat for some fun too! We docked at a shallow area for snorkeling and then went to the cliffs for some jumping! Conor was an awesome guide! He showed us a secret way into the caves to jump off the cliffs! Hands down the best excursion we have ever done! Well worth it!

Captain Smitty and First Mate Connor were the best team. We felt safe and hospitality was spot on. They picked up on our vibe and made us feel relaxed and privileged. We toured the islands and homes and enjoyed a swim in the most beautiful anchorage. We included drinks and they were graciously served. A much better experience than the 90 passenger loud party boats. We will talk about this one for a long time. What a great time !! Nirvana is true to her name.

Took a 3-hr charter and it exceeded our expectations. Capt. Smitty tailored the day to our interests. We had a lovely sail and spent time relaxing in a secluded cove! Everything we needed was on board: snorkles, paddleboards and Rum Swizzles! Fabulous day…highly recommend. We can’t wait to do it again!

captian smitty and his first mate were great! very friendly and knowledgeable about bermuda! made sure we were comfortable and safe.
