Snorkeling, catamaran and lunch in Curaçao

Discover Curaçao’s underwater world on this half-day catamaran snorkeling tour. You’ll sail through Spanish Water and along the island’s south coast before visiting two special snorkeling spots: the famous Tugboat shipwreck and a shallow reef located within Curaçao’s Underwater National Park.

While you explore its crystal-clear waters, the crew will prepare a delicious BBQ lunch. Afterwards, you can relax on board with fruit, drinks and an open bar while enjoying the Caribbean breeze.

With an approximate duration of 4.5 hours, this excursion is perfect for those who want to combine sailing, snorkeling and food without spending the whole day on a tour.

Cruising through Spanish Water

The experience begins at Village Marina, in Caracasbaai. After boarding, the catamaran will sail through the calm waters of Spanish Water.

During the trip you can admire beautiful waterfront villas, impressive yachts, and the scenery surrounding one of Curaçao’s best-known nautical areas.

Then, the boat will continue along the south coast towards the first snorkeling stop.

Snorkeling at the Tugboat shipwreck

The first stop will be Tugboat, one of Curaçao’s best-known snorkeling spots.

This small sunken tugboat rests in shallow water and has become a habitat for tropical fish, corals and other marine species. Its generally clear waters make it easy to see the vessel while you swim on the surface.

Mask and snorkel are included in the tour.

Second snorkeling reef

After exploring Tugboat, the catamaran will sail to a second snorkeling spot located a short distance away.

This shallow reef will give you another chance to discover the corals, tropical fish and clear waters of Curaçao’s Underwater National Park.

The exact locations may change depending on sea conditions and the crew’s decisions.

BBQ lunch on board

While you snorkel, the crew will prepare a BBQ buffet lunch on board.

The menu includes beef and chicken skewers, chorizo, different salads and garlic bread. Vegetarian, vegan or pescatarian options can also be requested when booking.

After lunch you can enjoy fruit, water, soft drinks, juices and a selection of alcoholic beverages from the open bar.

Relaxed return along the coast

After lunch, the catamaran will weigh anchor and begin the return trip to Village Marina.

Relax on board, enjoy the breeze and take in the coastal views before ending this complete Curaçao snorkeling experience.
