The Republic of Trinidad & Tobago is a fantastic yacht charter destination, located in the Southern Caribbean. Trinidad and Tobago is an archipelago state, lying just off the coast of north-eastern Venezuela and south of Grenada in the Windward Islands (Lesser Antilles). Trinidad & Tobago shares maritime boundaries with other yacht charter destinations including Barbados to the northeast, Guyana to the southeast, and Venezuela to the south and west. Trinidad is the larger and more populous of the two main islands, comprising about 94% of the total area and 96% of the total population of the country.
Trinidad & Tobago is a thriving multicultural society with a growing economy based on offshore oil wells. English is the official language in the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago, although visiting yacht charterers will hear Creole English spoken more often. Trinidad is the birthplace of calypso music, and is known as the ’Rainbow Island’ that is at its most colourful in the early months of the year when Carnival life is in full swing.

The Port of Spain, the capital of Trinidad is a good starting place for a luxury yacht charter. Trinidad and Tobago has a fascinating culture and rich history. The names of the harbours and towns largely reflect the multi-cultural immigrations that have taken place in the course of a very chequered history.

Client Testimonials
What our clients say about their charter experience.
Dear Crossed Sabre team, we were VERY happy with the entire experience and very appreciative of all that you, your crew and your chef did to accommodate our religious requirements and to provide our family with a beautiful experience. Captain Simon was the best we have had yet, and we liked our previous captain very much. We liked your calm demeanour, your humility and your genuine desire to make sure we had a great experience. We also appreciated how good you were with the children, including playing chess with them and just in general how you were very easy to speak with. All the crew were excellent and very service-oriented and super respectful. I was especially grateful for the sincere concern all the crew had to be sure our religious needs were fully met, and everyone went above and beyond in this regard, which was very much appreciated. The chef had a calm and easy demeanour and was easy to communicate with, and the meals were excellent. As for my father, it was fantastic that he was able to work out regularly with a crew member. We want to make sure you know how much we appreciated all that you and your team did for us; we were very happy with everything. We know that accommodating strict kosher requirements was not easy, but it was done very well.
They absolutely loved the boat and described it as phenomenal. The meeting with the captain at a café the day before departure was excellent and helped establish a great rapport. They loved the flexibility of having the captain tailor each day around their preferences. The boat would typically move in the morning, although some evenings they would travel as well. The food onboard was exceptional. They did not want to miss a single meal and were consistently impressed with the quality. The crew's service was a major highlight. They loved that the crew knew one another well and were all Croatian, which created a very warm and cohesive atmosphere. The crew offered two massages each day, allowing everyone to take turns enjoying them. The captain would regularly go into town to purchase fresh produce and local fish, which added a wonderful local element to the experience. One day, the captain went out diving for octopus and later enjoyed it as part of their onboard meal. Overall Takeaway: The clients were exceptionally positive about the trip, with the yacht experience, crew, flexibility, food, and personalised service standing out above everything else. They repeatedly emphasised how much they loved being onboard and how little they wanted to leave the boat.
What can we say? Unbelievably amazing experience. You are all such wonderful people whom we can now consider friends we hope to have long into the future. Thank you for sharing your hospitality and incredible country with us; we could not have asked for a better experience. We look forward to seeing you all in the very near future – in Croatia or Florida. All the very best and with much affection
To the Reverie team: We want to say a huge thank you for everything you have done for us on this trip. You are the best crew we have ever had on a yacht, hands down. Everything has been flawless. Keith’s food has been healthy, tasty, voluminous, and so varied. The toys and tenders were always ready for us when we needed them, and we loved having 3 Sea-Bobs, 3 efoils and 2 jet skis. Always charged and ready to go, from the moment we woke until we went to bed. Our rooms were cleaned so fast we often wondered if there were fairies who appeared and did it. Our washing was done and returned so quickly we wondered if we dreamed it. Service was perfect (thanks Megan and team!) - always nearby when we needed it, and invisible when we didn’t. We aren’t sure how we will survive at home, and there won’t be a drink, a cold towel and a smile waiting for us. Shane - you found us the best anchorages - exactly where we wanted to be - out of the way, out of the wind, but close to everything. We wanted adventures, and you went out of your way to source e-bikes, which ended up being a highlight. We know it wasn’t easy to find or to get them on and off the boat. The smaller things: remembering everyone’s names; the printed AllTrails maps; taking our kids jet skiing. They have all been noticed and appreciated. We know that it isn’t easy to build a team that can create such an exceptional experience. Congratulations to everyone on board - including those behind the scenes we don’t get to see as much. We would love to come back again next year - only if the crew is the same! Thanks so much!
Thank you all so much for such an amazing week! We had such a fabulous time thanks to each & everyone of you! Looking forward to seeing you in Dublin.
You guys knocked it out of the park again – we had such a super time! Thanks again to all for looking after us so well and all welcome in Dublin at any time!
