Bahamas Yacht Charter Highlights
⚲ Norman’s Cay
Snorkel Pablo Escobar’s sunken plane off Norman’s Cay
This wreck sits in just a few meters of clear water, right next to the shore. Snorkel directly above it — one of the most surreal, photogenic charter stops in the Exumas.
⚲ Major Spot
Swim with the famous wild pigs at Big Major’s Spot
Yes, it’s touristy — but it’s also classic Bahamas. Drop anchor nearby, dinghy in, and feed the pigs right from the beach. Early mornings are quieter and better for photos.
⚲ Anywhere
Learn to master the water toys in the turquoise shallows of the Exumas
The Bahamas is the ultimate playground for water toys. Glide along in flat water in the lee of a sandbar on an eFoil or jet ski. Best with a crewed yacht loaded with gear.

“William was amazing and professional!”
William was wonderful! We booked a charter for our adult kids for a week in the BVI's. He matched us with the perfect Cat and was extremely attentive and professional through the process. I highly recommend DMA as well as William! Thank you, and I will definitely use you for our next trip!

“Most amazing vacation. We cannot recommend John from DMA enough.”
I wish I could it give it more than five stars. Our entire family agrees our eight days in the Exumas was our best vacation ever. Every aspect of the trip was INCREDIBLE. From the start, working with John Boullin the broker at DMA was a fantastic experience - he was super responsive and knowledgable finding us the perfect boat for our family of four (two teenage boys). We cannot recommend DMA, Earnout, John, Ashley and Bill highly enough!!!

“Nadja Asmus with DMA is an amazing broker…”
If you have a dream yachting vacation in mind, work with Nadja. She’s professional, kind, and incredibly knowledgeable. She guided me through the chartering process with patience and clarity. My special requests were handled with care, and the trip was flawless thanks to her dedication and attention to detail. I couldn’t have asked for more.

“I can highly recommend Charter Broker Chris at DMA”
I can highly recommend Charter Broker Chris at DMA Yachting. I recently tasked Chris to find a last minute charter for myself and my 3 teenage children. He provided me with 3 exceptional catamarans to choose from and worked tirelessly to meet my family’s needs. He was always available to answer all of my questions and meet our specific requirements. Many thanks to Chris at DMA for your exceptional service and I look forward to working with you in the future.
