Early Bird Charters is a family run business in Bermuda with over 30 years of experience.

Launched by Cap’t Blake West in 1982, Early Bird Charters started out with one boat, named Troubadour. The business is now run by the next generation: Cap’t Jim West and his wife, Melanie Fiander West.

Professional, licensed, and insured - you're bound to have a safe and fun journey while out at sea!

Hop aboard Troubadour, a 42-foot double-ender boat with cedar trim and enjoy a classic fishing or a unique boating experience in Bermuda!  Run by a Volvo Penta D4-175, Troubadour cruises up to 12 knots to ensure a steady and relaxing voyage.

Sunset Cruises to Moongate Brewery

We’ve teamed up with Moongate Brewery for this season’s Spring Group Charters! We’ll be offering three-hour charters; departing from the dock at Grotto Bay Resort, touring the waters of St. George’s, with a “stop in” at Moongate Brewery for a flight of beers!

Explore Bermuda’s coastline while sampling Bermuda’s finest craft brewery. Grab a buddy (or a few), pack some snacks and drinks, and hop onboard for a three-hour cruise. Bottled water and a cooler will be provided on board.
