John Esper

Founder & Owner

John Esper has dedicated over 25 years to the maritime and water sports industry in the Turks and Caicos Islands, with a strong focus on empowering the local community. Since arriving in 1999 to North Caicos, he has made it a priority to create job opportunities for young Turks Islanders, ensuring that his businesses hire and train local talent.

As the founder of Caicos Island Charters and numerous other high-ranking, popular water sports companies, John has not only transformed the boating and tourism industry but also provided stable employment and career pathways for many islanders. His commitment to workforce development is reflected in the comprehensive training programs he has established, mentoring countless young Turks Islanders and equipping them with skills for long-term success in the maritime and tourism industries.

John’s dedication extends beyond business. He actively gives back to the community through initiatives such as school lunch programs for underprivileged children, youth mentorship, and a scholarship program that channels a portion of company revenue into educational and charitable causes.

At the heart of John’s work is a deep appreciation for the people of the Turks and Caicos Islands. He takes immense pride in fostering opportunities for the next generation while also cherishing his own family—his wife, Kim, of 41 years, their four sons, and ever growing family of seven grandchildren.

Our Approach

What Makes Us Different

There are plenty of boats in Turks and Caicos. There are very few teams that deliver the experience we do.

01

We are local

Our crew knows these waters, these islands, and these hidden spots because this is our home. We take you where the water is clearest, the reefs are alive, and the beaches feel untouched.

02

We keep it personal

We do not rush people on and off boats. We do not pack strangers together. We give you space, time, and freedom to enjoy your day the way you want.

03

We design every trip around you

Want to snorkel longer? We stay. Want to relax on a quiet sandbar? We go. Want music, drinks, and sunset views? We make it happen. Your charter should feel custom, not scheduled.

Our Philosophy

Creating Unforgettable Experiences

At Caicos Island Charters, we are more than a boat charter company—we create memorable, once-in-a-lifetime adventures.

Our passion for hospitality, exploration, and the natural beauty of the Turks & Caicos Islands shapes every journey. From private luxury charters to shared adventures and large group events, we ensure every trip is seamless, personalized, and extraordinary. No group is too big or too small!

Exceptional Service
