East End Charters, Greenport

Absolutely WONDERFUL experience from start to finish. Hannah & Erick go above and beyond to make your time memorable. The boat itself is gorgeous and spacious. 5 of us were so comfortable all day with plenty of room to move about. All the details are so thoughtful, from the chairs to sit on and the towels they provide; the experience is exceptional! We took advantage of the of the opportunity to go for a swim off the boat, which was so nice!! The complimentary soft beverages were just the cherry on top. It was a perfect day, we couldn’t recommend it enough!

Sailing with East End Charters for my girlfriend's birthday was as close to a perfect experience as one could hope to get. Erick and Hannah were kind, courteous, and fun hosts who went the extra mile to make sure our group had a great time. Surprise was a pleasure to travel on, and hearing her unique history as told by her crew made our time aboard feel even more special. While trips on other charter vessels have certainly been enjoyable, none quite match the time we spent aboard Surprise. Thanks again to Hannah & Erick!

Sailing on the Surprise was the highlight of our Long Island vacation for our family of five (12, 11, and 8yo). We did the sunset cruise, which could not have been more beautiful and relaxing. Erick and Hannah were awesome boat captains and hosts. I highly recommend and will do it again next time we're back.

Four of us spent 5 nights and 6 days aboard the Surprise as we sailed in the Bahamas. This was our first trip to the Exumas and we had a simply marvelous time. Eric and Hannah were so generous with their time and were never too busy to answer our questions or to explain procedures in detail. They were very knowledgeable regarding the history, culture and natural history of this area and particularly the marine life. Eric is a very experienced diver and we felt perfectly comfortable with his supervision of our snorkeling adventures. Lots of activities to choose from be it in or on the water or exploring the many small islands available. Did I mention the food was outstanding? I doubt there is another charter boat out there that serves fresh sourdough bread right from the galley. In short, a wonderful trip with exceptional crew.

If you’re looking for a fantastic family day on the NOFO, East End Charters is the way to go. Erick and Hannah are amazing. Surprise is beautiful. Sailing, swimming and lunch by Bug Light. We’re definitely booking again.
