There is a particular quality to the light at sea before the day has decided what it will be. Flat, wide, unhurried. The Maritime Escape was designed to live inside that feeling and to hold it for as long as possible.
Not every remarkable moment in Punta Mita happens on land. Beyond the terrace, beyond the infinity pool that seems to dissolve into the horizon there is the Pacific, patient and enormous, waiting. The Maritime Escape begins where the shore ends.
A private charter departs when you’re ready. There is no agenda to negotiate, no group to join. A bilingual captain who knows these waters reads the morning and shapes the route accordingly. The experience follows you, not the other way around.
Three ways to spend a private day on the Pacific
The Maritime Escape is structured around a simple idea: different guests want different things from the water. Some want stillness. Some want the satisfaction of doing something with the hours. Some want to end the day at a table that began somewhere between them and the horizon. Each level is complete in itself.
Coastal Escape, Punta Mita by Sea
A slow drift along the Riviera Nayarit coastline. Clear anchorages chosen for swimming, not photographed in advance. Music, cold drinks, and the rare satisfaction of having no particular reason to be anywhere else. For guests who understand that the best days at sea are the ones where very little happens, and all of it is exactly right.
Offshore Fishing Charter in Punta Mita
The same ease, with purpose woven in. Inshore or offshore fishing with professional equipment, custom Seeker rods, Avet reels, and a crew that has done this enough times to make it feel effortless. Active without ever becoming strenuous. You can put the rod down whenever you like.
Sea to Table, From the Pacific to Your Private Chef
The most complete version of the day. What you catch becomes part of the experience before you’ve returned to shore, prepared onboard as fresh ceviche or sashimi while the coastline is still visible. What comes home travels directly to your VEHM private chef. Some dinners are exceptional because of the setting or the wine. This one is exceptional because of what happened before it.
The first catch is cleaned and prepared onboard, still cold from the sea. Ceviche or sashimi, the crew decides by what arrived. This is the moment the afternoon becomes a story.
Everything else is already taken care of.
What a private charter looks like at VEHM
The charter arrives ready. A bilingual, experienced crew. An indoor cabin with air conditioning and an onboard bathroom. Drinks cold before you ask. Snacks that appear without announcement. Up to twelve guests, entirely private, no shared departures, no fixed route, no one else’s schedule to follow.
Coordination happens through your VEHM concierge the same person managing every detail at the villa. Departure times, itinerary preferences, lunch choices, the question of whether the morning calls for open water or a sheltered cove all of it arranged in advance, invisibly, so that the only thing left to decide on the day is how long to stay out.
Some guests return before lunch. Some stay until the light begins to change color. The charter holds its shape around either decision.
