We had an incredible half-day trip with Quintessence Charters on their boat, Apotheoseas, during our visit to Tortola, BVI. Although we couldn’t visit The Baths due to weather (still waiting for Quintessence to figure out how to fix that—hmm!), Captain Keanen made the experience unforgettable by taking us to secluded beaches with breathtaking scenery and some of the best snorkeling we’ve ever had. The variety of vibrant fish was a highlight for our family.

Captain Keanen was outstanding—accommodating, respectful, and always ready with thoughtful suggestions for alternative spots. The Apotheoseas may look a bit unconventional, but it’s super stable and perfectly comfortable, especially in rough waters. It offered plenty of shade for those who needed it, and while boarding from the water was slightly challenging, Captain Keanen was always there to help.

One highlight of the trip was visiting the iconic floating bar and restaurant Willy T’s, where we had a blast jumping into the water from the second deck. Their conch fritters were absolutely delicious—a must-try!

I’d absolutely recommend this charter to anyone visiting Tortola. It’s conveniently located just a short walk from the cruise pier, and the entire process—from communication to execution—was seamless and enjoyable. Quintessence Charters made our trip a memorable adventure!

Had an awesome time with Captain Max! Cool and fun to hang out with, and the boat was super clean and comfortable. He kept the vibe light and made the whole trip so much fun. Would definitely book again!

It was our pleasure having Alexander on board with us! We hope to see him in the near future.

Everything went perfectly. We look forward to seeing you again.

Frank and his group were amazing guests!! They were fun, respectful, inquisitive & pleasant to be around. Wish we could have guests like them every time!!
