Half Day Cat Sail And Snorkel

Day Trip, Group Tour

Offer Image
On this half-day tour, which offers the perfect balance of adventure and relaxation, sail away on a catamaran as you explore the coast of St. Maarten.

St. Maarten Half Day Snorkeling & Catamaran Sailing

Sint Maarten may not be named in the song 'Kokomo,' but that's the vibe you'll experience on this half-day snorkel and beach adventure. Join us for a day filled with sun, sea, and unforgettable memories!"

Cruising from the Great Bay of Philipsburg, you will see history, beautiful scenery, and incredible villas and yachts. Enjoy the incredible view as you sail along the coast past the ruins of Fort Amsterdam, Little and Cay Bays, and Pelican Key on your St. Maarten Catamaran Tour.

Our 40-foot catamaran comfortably accommodates up to 20 guests, offering a spacious sun deck and a shaded area for your 3.5-hour adventure. Your captain will chart a course to a local underwater snorkel park, where you'll stop over a shipwreck and a sunken helicopter from long ago. Dive in and swim 100 feet to explore this unique underwater museum, teeming with aquatic life. Watch as hundreds of fish surround you during the fish feeding experience. It's perfect for all ages, so don't forget your underwater camera! We’ll spend 30-40 minutes at this unforgettable snorkel spot.

Once the snorkelers are back on board, we'll treat you to a quick snack of chips and fresh fruit. Then, it's time to relax and enjoy our famous signature 'Captain Sneaky Rum Punch,' along with a selection of beers and other beverages, as we continue our journey.

Next, we head to a beach with the bluest waters we can find-whether it's Indigo, Karakter, Simpson Bay, Mullet, or the lagoon. We'll anchor about 30-40 feet from the shore, where you can swim to the beach, search for shells, float with a beverage in hand, or simply relax on the boat. If we're lucky, we may even spot playful pods of dolphins, and we'll take a moment for photos and to enjoy the spectacle. No two trips are ever the same. A light lunch will be served as we enjoy this scenic stop.

The moment will come to head back to Philipsburg. On the return journey, our friendly crew will pamper and entertain you with some lively vacation tunes. Guests can relax in the net, take stunning photos, ask questions, and get to know the crew. Don't miss the chance to have your picture taken sitting in the captain’s chair-whether you're an adult or a child! And for those of age, there's an opportunity to enjoy a special adult tasting treat."

Upon arriving back at the dock, don’t forget to check out our Plan B gifts and t-shirts! You can take a leisurely stroll back to your cruise ship or, if time allows, head downtown for some shopping to pick up gifts for your loved ones. Our goal is to encourage you to relax and enjoy every moment-'Don’t Worry, Be Happy'-while having hours of fun and creating unforgettable memories. Just remember to bring a towel and a big smile!
