Pyratz Pillars - Sustainability
Discover our onboard options and offerings through our 3 key pillars: Gastronomy, Discovery & Sustainability.
Sustainability – Pyratz was born with sustainability in mind. Having repurposed two hurricane-damaged boats into as-good-as-new charter boats, the company started with the aim to support sustainable tourism.
Furthermore, with the environment being a key factor to the companies’ success, we have found the necessity of environmental awareness to be non-negotiable.
Our Promise
With growth comes great opportunity to explore new ways to find and offer sustainable solutions within our business model.
At Pyratz, we believe that luxury and sustainability can go hand in hand.
We are committed to providing exceptional experiences while preserving the beauty of our oceans and supporting the communities we touch.
Our social responsibility efforts focus on three key pillars: environmental sustainability, community engagement, and ethical operations.
Our goal with sharing our Sustainability Report is to transparently show you what is important to us, and give a good view of where we want to grow towards in the coming years.
