The trip couldn’t have gone any better. Lars took us to great snorkeling locations, beautiful beaches, cool hiking trails, and we had crazy good views sailing.

At night, we were always in calm bays to sleep. Jaz cooked amazingly good food. The whole time was Relaxing and fun.

If you’re looking for an unforgettable sailing experience in the British Virgin Islands, look no further than the Tortuga! Our group just returned from an incredible trip on this catamaran, and we are still talking about what an amazing time we had.
From the moment we stepped aboard, our hosts Lars and Jazz made us feel right at home. Their warmth, expertise, and genuine desire to make every moment special truly set this experience apart. They go above and beyond in every way — nothing is too much to ask.
And the food? Absolutely incredible. Every meal was a highlight of the trip.
If you are considering a sailing adventure in the BVI, do yourself a favor and book the Tortuga. You will NOT be disappointed

My husband & I have traveled a lot but this is definitely a favorite vacation! It was incredible! Lars & Jaz were the best & had the best itinerary planned for us six. They took us to amazing snorkeling spots with crystal clear water & had all the fun toys on board (paddle board, kayak, fishing, big floating tube & a pull down movie screen where we had a movie night).

And the FOOD was incredible! Jaz served us healthy meals that were so yummy!

Tortuga Catamaran is beautiful & loved the layout.

I would highly recommend this trip to everyone & hope to go back next year.

Lars, you were truly the best captain! Thank you for showing us so many beautiful spots throughout the USVI and BVI, along with all the fun snorkeling adventures and amazing beach locations. Every day was unforgettable!

And Jaz — your cooking and crewing were totally beyond wonderful. You helped expand my palate, and the presentation of every single meal was absolutely fantastic. You both made our trip so special and brought our group together for so much fun and laughter.

Thank you for everything you both did to make this experience incredible. We will definitely be back!

I can’t say enough about how awesome our trip was with Jaz and Lars. They were so fun to spend time with and they were on top of every detail of the trip: fun daily itineraries snorkeling and seeing all sorts of hidden corners of the islands, delicious meals from Jaz (she even accommodated vegetarians and vegans on the trip), extremely comfortable accomodations. They created a special experience for us that I will remember forever. Highly recommended!

Jaz and Lars are the best!!! We had a wonderful time and it has been one of our best vacations! They are super knowledgeable about the area and took us along for all the fun activities and spots. Jaz’s food was amazing – we had a couple of vegan friends and she managed all the diet needs with super yummy meals and dessert everyday! Everything was super organized and well taken care of on our little adventure! We’ll definitely come back!

Recently, I took a much needed vacation and stayed aboard the Tortuga catamaran for a full week and had an incredible time. Captain Lars and Chef/First Mate Jaz are a very fun and talented crew who made sure we were eating well and seeing great sights and spots around the Virgin Islands. They handled getting in and out of the BVIs no problem. We snorkeled almost every day and saw sea turtles and so many beautiful fish and wildlife. The views were stunning sailing around and just relaxing. With kayaking, paddle boards, and windsurfing gear there’s plenty of ways to find the adventure that’s for you. Chef Jaz was on top of it cooking up a delicious storm – thank you Jaz! There was plenty of sunscreen and refreshments available, whatever you need is there. The beds were also very plush and supportive. Superb experience, can’t wait to do it again!

We had the absolute joy of sailing through the BVI with Captain Lars and Jaz on our very first charter, and it was truly one of the most special experiences our family has ever had.

We are a family of six with four daughters, and from the very beginning, Lars and Jaz made us feel completely at home. Their kindness, warmth, and genuine care for our family were evident in everything they did.

Captain Lars is an exceptional sailor—calm, confident, and incredibly knowledgeable. We always felt safe and relaxed, which allowed us to fully enjoy every moment. He also made sure there was never a dull moment, setting up water toys and creating so much fun for our girls throughout the trip.

Chef Jaz is nothing short of amazing. Every single meal was thoughtful, beautifully prepared, and absolutely delicious—each one felt special and something we looked forward to every day.

One moment that meant the world to us: due to a canceled flight, our 16-year-old daughter had to fly in a day early on her own. Lars and Jaz met her at the airport, took her under their wing, and cared for her until we arrived the next day. As parents, we cannot express how much that meant to us. That level of kindness and responsibility goes far beyond what you expect—it truly speaks to the kind of people they are.

We were also their very first charter on their new boat, Tortuga, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The boat is absolutely beautiful, comfortable, and perfectly set up for an unforgettable trip.

This was more than just a vacation—it was a memory our family will cherish forever. Lars and Jaz are two of the kindest, most genuine people we’ve ever met, and we feel so lucky to have shared this experience with them.

If you are considering a sailing trip through the Caribbean, do yourself a favor and book with Captain Lars and Jaz. It will exceed your expectations in every way.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for taking such incredible care of our family—we cannot wait to sail with you again!

Out of This World Experience!!!!!!
If you don’t book this trip, you will regret it.
The adventures are great, you just can’t replicate it.
The two crew team are top of the class.
Set sail with them and experience something world class!

This was by far the best vacation I have ever been on and it was all due to the expertise of Lars and Jasmine! Everyday brought a new adventure at sea and on land. They are truly a great team.

A WEEK AT SEA WOWEEEEEE!!!
Fantastic experience!!! Jasmine & Lars unbelievable, super couple, Jasmine a great chef, fantastic food, Lars a super captain!!!

Hard to describe the adventure. Ours tilted towards fishing. Caught and ate fish. Me caught nothing except a lot of ribbing……………………..

Lars and Jasmine know their way around the Virgin Islands and took us to great places including a reggae concert!!!

Especially fun was meeting Jasmine’s dad’s (best friends for 50-years) friends who are now our friends.

You want to get face to face with the ocean and a great part of the world book a trip!!!
