PRIVATE YACHT EXPERIENCES · PUERTO VALLARTA & RIVIERA NAYARIT, MEXICO
You relax.
We handle it.
A boutique yacht experience agency in Puerto Vallarta and Bahía de Banderas. One accountable, bilingual person composes your day on the water — from your first message to the dock.
Private charters begin at 1,500 USD, all taxes included
ONE BILINGUAL POINT OF CONTACT
From inquiry to departure
EVERY VESSEL CURATED; EVERY DETAIL PREPARED
Nothing left to chance
A REGISTERED MEXICAN BUSINESS
Proper invoicing, no hidden fees
NOT A RENTAL
A curator, not a rental.
You will not be handed a list of thirty boats and asked to choose.
We select the one, two, or three vessels that suit your occasion. We brief the partner crew in their language, inspect the yacht for a full hour before you arrive, stock the bar to your preferences, and greet you at the dock. The thinking, the vetting, and the coordination are done before you board.
Choosing well is our job, not yours.

THE CURATOR MODEL
How the day is composed
ONE
Tell us the accoasion
One conversation — your date, your group, what the day is for. You receive a small, deliberate selection of vessels, with clear pricing and everything itemized.
TWO
We compose the day
Vessel, chef, bar, timing, styling. The partner crew briefed in Spanish. A 60-minute inspection of the yacht before you ever see it.
THREE
You board
Greeted at the dock by name. Everything already in place. Oksana reachable from shore for the entire charter — with a plan for when it matters.
THE FLOOR WE OPERATE FROM
What you can hold us to
The bicultural bridge
Six languages. The partner crew briefed in Spanish; you welcomed in your own language. Nothing gets lost in translation on the day that matters.
What we control, and what we don't
What we prepare, we prepare fully. The sea and the weather are not ours to promise — we prepare for them. If the captain deems conditions unsafe, you reschedule at no cost or receive a full refund. Stated in advance, in writing.
A limited calendar
A few charters each week, each personally prepared in the days before it. If your date is available, it is yours. If it isn't, we will say so honestly.
THE PERSON BEHIND YOUR INQUIRY
Every inquiry is answered by Oksana
Founder of Boat & Bay. Several languages. Years on this bay. She helps you choose the vessel, designs the day, briefs the partner crew in their language, and greets you at the dock.
From your first message to your last step off the boat, you are dealing with one person — and she is reachable the entire time.

GUEST STORIES
How the day actually went
A group of sixteen, celebrating their mother's birthday. Grandparents, kids, and complex logistics — the kind of day where the person who organized it usually ends up working it. This time, they didn't have to.
"It's all in the details"
Patti L. · Family birthday · Sailing catamaran
"From the way we were welcomed at the dock, everything they had prepared on board."
A couple's day on the water — greeted by name, bar stocked to their preferences, crew briefed before arrival. The hour before boarding is never left to chance.
