Full-Day Charter
Trade your one shot at the water for a full day designed around what your group actually wants.
Six guests max. Multi-stop. The most ambitious itinerary we offer.
Don’t shoehorn a Cumberland trip into 3 hours. Full days mean you can go further, stay longer, and find the quiet places.

What’s Possible in 8 Hours
Multi-stop itinerary
Cumberland Island AND a sandbar AND a sunset finish. Or whatever combination your group wants.

3–4 hours ashore instead of 1–2. Walk further, see more, eat lunch under the oaks.
Lunch built in
Lunch break ashore or anchored. We help you plan it.
Less rushed
No “we’ve got to head back” feeling. You’re on the water all day.
Meet Captain Matt
“I get it — booking a charter sight-unseen is nerve-wracking. You’re trusting your captain with your one shot at a perfect day on the water. I’ve been on enough mediocre charters to know exactly what makes one great. I started Nowhere because I wanted to run the kind of trip I’d want to be on.”
Captain Matthew Burrows runs Nowhere Charters out of Fernandina Beach. He’s a USCG-licensed Master Captain — and a commercial airline pilot flying Airbus aircraft for a major carrier. The two jobs overlap more than you’d think: precision, redundant-systems safety thinking, calm under pressure, and a habit of reading the weather like it’s the only thing that matters. (On a boat, it is.)

Questions, Answered
How many stops can we make?
Typically 3–4 stops in a full day, with travel time between. Captain Matt plans for tide + weather windows.
Can we add specific destinations?
Yes — tell us what you want to see when you book. Cumberland, sandbar, St. Marys, Old Towne, sunset finish — all on the table.
Best for groups celebrating something?
Anniversaries, milestone birthdays, retirement, friend trips — full days are the right scale for “this is the one we’ll remember.”
Cancellation policy?
Customer cancels 30+ days before charter → full refund or reschedule. Within 30 days → no refund. Captain cancels (weather, mechanical) → full refund or reschedule. No-shows forfeit payment. Late arrivals shorten the charter window.
