Great - Thank you Fabrice. I came to your boat twice, first as a couple then with friends. I would do it again without hesitation! You made me discover your sailboat in all serenity and fun; I had the chance to see turtles and dolphins and I was also delighted to spend great times by your side. I recommend without hesitation!

island, yacht, wonderful - It was my 49 birthday and I wanted to the spend the day on a yacht with my husband. I found amazing yacht charter on google and let me tell you it was the best experience ever. When I stumbled upon the website I immediately contacted them for availability for February 17th, I was satisfied with the price and how beautiful the yacht looked. We were able to enjoy the island waters along with the beautiful beaches, we were able to throw in an anchor at Tintamarre Island along w other yachts, and visited a beautiful beach. While we were anchored along shore our captain took great care of us. He poured our shots while we were swimming, he had prepared the lunch. It was 2 of us and we all had a great time!!! Since it was my birthday they had decorations and also a bottle of white wine!!! If I was to go back to Sant Marten I would def book with him again!

Wonderful sailing boot trip with The Soul of Pirates - We really enjoyed the day with Fabrice. Our trip on his sailing boat to Tintamarre was wonderful all round and very relaxed. Fabrice is a very warm and pleasant captain who was always keen to make sure we were comfortable and told us a lot about sailing. The food on board and especially the home-cooked lunch was very good. Fabrice provided us with all the equipment we needed for snorkeling so that we could enjoy our time underwater to the fullest. Doing the sailing boat trip with The Soul of Pirates is highly recommended.

An unforgettable day sailing with Captain Fabrice in the St Martin & Anguilla Canal - We visited St Martin as part of a Caribbean Cruise itinerary. Unusually our ship was anchored at Marigot which is on the French side of the island - as opposed to Philipsburg which is on the Dutch side of the island & where a majority of cruise ships usually dock. I particularly wanted to find an excursion from Marigot - as Philipsburg is a drive of about a 40 minutes duration. So - I trawled various sites and was so VERY fortunate to find Captain Fabrice (The Soul Of Pirates). I emailed him directly & he was able to confirm that his sailing yacht was moored at a marina extremely close to where our tender drop off point was located. As our cruise disembarkation/embarkation times did not fit in with the times of the advertised tours - Captain Fabrice kindly arranged a 'tailor made' trip - that would fit in with our time exactly. We exchanged contact details & were able to meet Captain Fabrice in Marigot on the morning of 21/11/23 - from where we sailed the Caribbean Sea in the St Martin and Anguilla canal and made a stop at the Creole Rock - which is an amazing snorkel spot (weather depending - of course). Fabrice also prepared a wonderful home made lunch of tuna quiche & coconut chicken with potatoes. We were very lucky in that there was just the two of us & my husband was fortunate in that he was able to sail the yacht for most of the day - under the professional, careful and very patient instruction of Captain Fabrice. Fabrice himself is such a gentle, genuine and interesting individual - who has so many stories to tell you - including when he met some real pirates when he sailed across the Atlantic from France!! Sailing seems to be in his soul - his passion for sailing is obvious & to witness him sensing the wind & the ocean is just amazing. I think perhaps that more of the smaller cruise ships may start to anchor off Marigot as opposed to Philipsburg - I do hope so - because then more people might get to enjoy this very unique experience. Singles - Couples - Families - people of all ages will truly love this excursion - very highly recommended - do not hesitate in reserving your spot - you will not regret it. Thank You Captain Fabrice for an amazing day - we will never forget it !!

Intimate sailing trip - Simply a unique way to enjoy a day on the water. Seeing the island of St Martin from the sea was stunning. Fabrice knew all of the landmarks as we travelled to Tintamarre Island. Enjoyed having an active role in sailing the boat with some time also to sit and enjoy the trip. If you are looking to slow down in our fast paced world, a day spent sailing will reset you to island time. Fabrice is a treasure. He is a pirate at heart. Would book him again.

We saw turtles, dolphins and a sting ray, along with beautiful fish. If you want to sail this is your trip!! We will be back!!

Fantastic Adventure! - Highly recommend this full day sailing trip with Fabrice because really, who doesn’t love a good pirate adventure?! But even if you’re not into donning a pirate hat and yelling “Arrrr!” as you take the helm and hoist the sails, it’s ok as the pirate theme isn’t over-the-top. This trip is a great way to experience the beauty of the St.Martin coastline and incredible turquoise waters. Fabrice is a fun, knowledgeable and safe captain and ensures his guests have the best experience on his sailboat. He encourages you to actively participate in sailing the boat, but it’s cool if you’d rather just sit back and soak in the experience. We had a few snorkeling stops at places only accessible by boat and a delicious lunch served on board, along with some refreshing beverages. All around a super fun day out!
