CAPTAIN: Jamie Earle
CHEF: Jessa Jaresh
Jamie grew up just outside landlocked London although this didn't stop him from finding his way to the water. He started racing dinghies at eight years old and turned his hobby into a job at thirteen as a sailing instructor throughout his youth. Whilst at university studying mechanical engineering he progressed to a Commercially Endorsed Yachtmaster and spent the summers skippering throughout the Mediterranean.
After a year of office life working in the tech sector Jamie chose to swap the desk for the waves and became a full time yacht crew member. Captaining SY Solitaire a 75ft sloop on charter for a season, multiple stints on superyachts and ocean crossings and term charters on sailing catamarans in both the Med and the Virgin islands.
He has amassed in excess of 15000 miles at sea. He is also a keen skier and enjoys anything out on the water or outdoors.
Born in Colorado and raised in Texas, Jessa has always had a passion for being in nature. While she grew up in the city, her family took vacations to the beach and mountains every year and these holidays are what fueled her love for the great outdoors. After she got her degree in Psychology at Texas State University, she worked in the corporate world for a few years in Human Resources until making the radical decision to leave the hustle and bustle of a big city in order to pursue the spontaneous lifestyle of living on the ocean. In 2017 she began her career in Croatia as a Professional Yacht Chef. Since then, she has had the privilege of exploring and working in many places all over the world including Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia and many of the Caribbean islands.
The Virgin Islands quickly became one of her favorite places after sailing and working there at the end of 2018. She knew instantly that she wanted to make the Caribbean her home.
She enjoys traveling, hiking, snorkeling, scuba diving, exercising, and most importantly, curating unique and delicious meals for her loved ones and for her guests.
In addition to Jessa's many hobbies and extensive experience in the industry, she has completed multiple certifications in the last couple of years that have helped her evolve personally and professionally. She has her 100 Ton United States Coast Guard Captains License, her 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training Certificate, and her Level 2 Certification in Culinary Arts.
She believes that cooking is all about sharing and being able to share unique and tasty dishes with the guests is so important to her!
One of her favorite parts about traveling is being able to experience new cultures and cuisines and incorporating these cuisines into her own menu. Seafood is a personal favorite of Jessa’s, to cook and to eat! Jessa finds it very special to be able to use the local seafood for her dishes. On board Pura Vida, Jessa will ensure that your vacation is filled with wholesome, fresh, and local meals. She has experience working with all dietary restrictions and food allergies and will work with you and your group to create the perfect menu for your week.

Reviews
We loved snorkeling at the Indians, and we especially enjoyed our time on the boat with Captain Jamie and Chef Jessa while learning about the area.
This was our favorite trip to date!
We enjoyed everything about our vacation on Pura Vida. We made so many family memories. Jamie and Jessa were great and made the experience so wonderful. We really want to do this again!!"

Amazing snorkeling, Excellent Food, want for not
Highly Recommend!!!!
Miss Elle
We loved chilling on the boat in the sun. We enjoyed Soggy dollar at White Bay, but enjoyed having a drink with Brandon and Alessia at Ivan's Stress Free Bar the most.
So beautiful. We loved using all the water toys, especially the SUPS.
This week has been magical.
We went for my partner‘s 50th birthday and it was the best decision we’ve made.Captain Brandon and Alessia give us the best trip we could possibly imagine and more. Anything we wanted, they helped us get. From deciding where to go on a day by day basis, to offering activities, we can try, to the food that Alessia prepared, the whole thing was amazing. We even caught fish and ate it fresh that night! There was always a delightful spread on the table and drinks flowing.
We were able to go on hikes, sea waterfalls, go to caves and pools, and explore some of the islands. There is something for everyone.
Would recommend this trip, and these hosts to anyone!!
Brandon and Alessia made the entire trip - one we will never forget. The chillness and laid back vibes was so our speed. the attention to detail, the custom meals (YUM!) and the care put into making us feel special was next level.
Jess
Brandon and Alessia, thanks for making everything first rate - "Everything" and I do mean EVERYTHING... was just perfect including the privacy you gave us.
Love you guys
'Til next time
Matt
Brandon and Alessia made the trip personal and special. From the home cooked meals to dives and our endless questions. They made it fun, adventurous and an overall wonderful vacation for our two families. This was the perfect break from reality - loved it all!!!
The best crew ever, Alessia and Brandon, who were so friendly and helplful!
BEST CREW EVER!
BEST CREW EVER!!!
Pura Vida and the crew, Brandon and Alessia are top notch.
Incredible cuisine
Enjoyed the relaxation the most and relaxing in the water. Other favorites were the Baths and coming through the infamous split in the reef for dinner at Coco Mayo.
Brandon and Alessia were a delight to charter with.
Just perfect
Your attention to detail from the tablescapes to everything "safety" related was so appreciated. Your teamwork together (Love) was a joy to watch. Let us know how you're doing occasionally, we'd love to "keep up"
Snorkeling around the carious reefs with the white sand, watching for tarpon at night.
Endless food and drink - Loved it!!!
On February 23 my two brothers and their wives and myself took off on a trip of a lifetime! Our Captain Andre and his wife/ chef Magda were amazing. They took great care to make sure we had a trip to remember FOREVER. We had such a great time and the sites were unbelievable. The food was beyond what I ever could have imagined. The crew made us feel welcome from the first moment we met them until we had to say our sad goodbyes. They really went above and beyond to make sure that we saw as much of the BVI as possible. I would highly recommend sailing with Andre and Magda if you plane to see the BVI in the future. Thanks again for everything you did for us to make this a memorable vacation!!!!!! Don Myers
Date of experience: February 2024
The food was also so special, with several highlights such as fresh mahi ceviche and sashimi!
And the boat was perfect: VERY new, impeccable, fully functional.
Our family of 5 would recommend this trip without blinking!!
