Erin Go Bragh

I really don’t have enough good things to say about Erin Go Bragh + Captain Dan, First Mate Chris and Sue! From the first interaction Sue was extremely helpful and accommodating, even I sending us directions from the hotel (which I thought was nice but useless until I got on the island and NONE of my maps apps worked on my phone and I was extremely grateful for hand written directions).
The Puerto Del Rey Marina is easy to get to and quite nice actually, with bathrooms, showers, and a little deli /​quick market. The parking is free which is an added bonus.
Now to the fun stuff, the sail! Captain Dan is so accommodating from the very first step on the boat. He makes sure you’ve got everything you need; from drinks, snacks, island facts, safety instructions, and most importantly sea sickness measures in the event you ignore the instructions and forget to take Dramamine before you start the sail.
Capt Dan is so passionate about sailing, and that shows in the entire trip. He takes you to little known reefs and coves that haven’t been ruined by tourists. On both of the islands we went to we were not only the only people, but the only boat in the area! They even go so far as to give you little loaves of bread to bring with you while you snorkel to attract the friendly fish! It was awesome.
While you’re snorkeling Dan and Chris put together an Extraordinary lunch. We have bbq chicken, ribs, fresh salad, French bread, and island rice. And because it was my fiancé’s birthday they special ordered him an island cheesecake from the local bakery and served it after our second island.
In general I don’t have enough good things to say. We had an amazing time, Dan and Chris would have had nothing less. See you next time crew!

I can only say wonderful things about this sailing outfit. I have a family of all adults and we had a blast on this cruise. Great food, great company, great boat, great crew, great snorkeling, absolutely stunning weather. It was a full day and we enjoyed every minute. No rocking and rolling and I usually get seasick on every vessel I travel! Loved Dan too. He was a great captain. Stan was his first mate that day. We will be back again!

I don’t know what I can add to what’s already been said in the glowing reviews here, except to say it’s all true! We had a wonderful time and truly enjoyed our entire day. We were out all day, not returning until after 6. The food, snorkeling, stories, boat and everything else was great!

This really needs a 6^th star rating. I traveled with Kris P. (below) and everything she said was true! None of us can stop gushing about what an amazing day that was.
The entire experience was amazing and I would love to return and would definitely re-​charter them for a day or even overnight experience. They truly thought of everything from the fresh flowers, to having different sea sickness aids. The equipment provided made everything more than convenient and you felt safe knowing that you have a certified dive master available. Not to mention the amazing knowledge of the sea that both have, I am slightly convinced that Ingrid is a Selkie though since while she will be going back to reside on land she is completely at home in the sea.
Have you ever want to have the best snorkeling, see the most beautiful uncrowded reef areas, and have just about the best lunch and rum punch in your life? Hire Captain Dan and Ingrid!

I had the most amazing time with Captain Dan and Ingrid. We got to the boat earlier than our scheduled time (thanks to a driver they recommended), and they were kind enough to let our adventure start early. We stopped to admire a ship that is going to be used in the next Pirates of the Caribbean movie before heading out to the open water.
Ingrid and Dan were more than accommodating. They even let a few who wanted to sail the boat take the helm. One was a born natural.
We got to our main snorkel site where we were told we would have about 1.5 — 2 hours to enjoy the water before lunch would be ready. For those of us who had not snorkeled before, he took his time to explain how to put on the mask and how to use the snorkel. He made sure we were all outfitted with the appropriate size flippers as well. He made sure we all had swim buddies and told us what kind of sea life we’d see in the area.
The lunch they provided was amazing and plentiful. (I LOVED the mango salsa). Drinks were plenty (water, soda, beer, and RUM PUNCH!) Ingrid also brought out some fruits and banana bread for snacks later in the day.
We were given the option of what we’d like to do next, more sailing or more snorkeling. We ended up on a little sand island with even more clear water. The day just kept getting better and better.
When we got back to the marina, Ingrid called our driver to pick us up, and provided us a key to the shower to get rinsed off.
All 6 of us girls had a great time. I look forward to going back to Puerto Rico and taking on a new adventure.
This is much more exciting and relaxing than one of those over priced catamaran tour boats.

What an incredible day! My husband and I, along with another couple (close friends) chartered a sailboat for the afternoon. Captain Dan and Arturo made sure everything was perfect. First we were taken to a private beach to snorkel and relax. When we swam back to the boat, Arturo was just finishing his lunch preparation of BBQ ribs and chicken (and drinks, of course). After lunch we sailed to another location, on a reef, to snorkle some more! Then it was back to dock.
We were all thrilled with the adventure and swear that we are never taking one of those touristy booze cruises again! The price was just a little more, but worth every penny… Can’t wait to get back to PR and Erin Go Bragh. Thanks again, Dan, Arturo and Ingrid. Erin
