Highlights
  • Little Bay - Little bay (my favorite!), is a magical secluded cove with great snorkeling and turtle watching, a tranquil beach and maybe some cliff jumping for the more adventurous! This is also a very calm anchorage making it a great spot for paddle boarding.
  • Prickly Pear Cays - Prickly Pear Cays, a few uninhabited islands (aside from two restaurants), just to the north of Anguilla. After a short ride, you and your guests will get to snorkel the beautiful reef, explore the island, meet the wildlife, and stroll the beautiful white sand beaches.
  • Meads Bay - Anguilla is home to some of the most elite beaches in the world and Meads Bay is one of the island’s truly pristine shores. Once you see the turquoise waters and sink your toes into the white, feather-soft sand you will understand exactly what we mean.
  • Mullet Bay - After a fun time in Little bay we head to Mullet Bay in St Martin for a last swim at another stunning beach. Then it’s back to the dock for drop off.

Perfect! - Absolutely perfect excursion for the day. We had a great time, the crew was so professional and friendly, lunch was delicious, and the drinks were good too. I’m pregnant and all the cocktail options were so good even without alcohol in them. Great communication throughout the trip. Worth every penny!

Third time was a charm - This is our third time on Boomerang charter. As usual it was a fabulous trip from start to finish. The crew is friendly and professional. They have a full open bar the entire day. Their on board prepared lunch is outstanding. Includes curry chicken kabobs, garlic shrimp and Greek pasta salad. Their portions are plentiful. The atmosphere is very fun with music and dancing. Snorkeling equipment and flotation devices are included. It's a full day worth every penny.

Great trip worth repeating! - This was a fun trip! The boat was more stable than expected and the drinks were plentiful throughout the day. We got to see a sea turtle in Little Bay & swam to its beautiful beach. I was thrilled that we went to Shoal Bay Beach!! It’s still the most beautiful beach! We swam to the beach, lounged in the sand & even bought some souvenirs! Our bar b q lunch was served here & it was excellent!! Meades Bay was also very pretty. We relaxed on the mat & watched people jump off the roof of the catamaran. Our final stop was Cap Jaluca. The water was so clear & turquoise!! The ride back was enjoyable. All of the workers were so friendly, we will definitely do this tour again!!!

DON'T. MISS. THIS. EXCURSION!!! - This is an absolutely amazing excursion! From Capt. Jervis, 1st mate Dervess, Lindsey, Megan and Ivey (I hope I got all the names right and spelled them correctly, 😀) each crew member was very accommodating, friendly and willing to answer any questions and to do whatever they could to help make the trip a great memory. The drinks flowed from the minute we boarded the boat and continued throughout the day. The food was delicious and perfect from the chicken and shrimp skewers and the pasta salad (just be careful of the hot sauce). Then they cut up pineapple and watermelon for a refreshing afternoon treat and ended the day with brownies. And the beaches and snorkeling destinations were breathtaking and well thought out. A perfect day for enjoying the beautiful, crystal clear water and sandy white beaches. If you didn't feel like swimming from the boat to shore the first mate shuttled those folks in the tender. Nothing about this excursion was sub-par. First class all around, in my opinion. I spent a lot of time with the captain on the bridge at the helm (quite a view) having great conversations about family, backgrounds, the locale, and great places to visit. My heartfelt thanks to the entire crew for their hard work and dedication to create a very memorable day! Bravo Zulu!

Different itinerary- 10/10 experience - The boat did not follow the itinerary posted- we did not go to the cays. But I can’t imagine it got better than what we experienced! Shoal Bay was absolutely the highlight of the trip. The captain grills everyone a hearty filling lunch, spiced to perfection, which is so nice after swimming non stop. The crew was super attentive and delightful. Catamaran was very comfortable. The open bar was awesome and offered mocktails too. Worth every penny & more. Would 100% recommend this to anyone! (Side note- it’s a long swim to the beach. Best grab a noodle)

Perfect start to our trip! - We took this trip the very first full day of our stay in St. Martin. We decided to do it on that day because we thought we would meet others who had been vacationing and they could make recommendations for us. We were right! Plenty of wonderful people with all kinds of ideas BUT, the real fun was the day - lots of sightseeing and lots of fun on the boat! The crew was SO friendly and fun and made the day so enjoyable. The drinks were flowing (and delicious) and the lunch and afternoon snacks were the best! The check in process could be improved by making it more efficient as we had to stand around a loud, icky parking lot for about an hour and a half. Not the end of the world but kind of a pain. Even so, this was quickly forgotten when we got on the boat and the fun began. We definitely would recommend this adventure! What a perfect way to start our trip! Thank you

Was A Good Day - The beaches were unreal. Swimming the amazing clear water was amazing. There were sea turtles, rays, starfish, tarpons and many other fish. The drinks and food were good too. I really don’t know if we ever made it to Prickley Pear Island. The places we did see were beautiful.
