Boarding takes place via a spacious shuttle boat (for up to 15 people) that transports guests to the catamaran. This shuttle, like all our vessels, undergoes inspection every six months to ensure safety and quality. From the beach hut (where check-in takes place), it’s a short 30-meter/ 98 foot ride to the catamaran. This area of the sea is as calm as a lake, with little to no waves throughout the year

An unforgettable catamaran experience

5.00The catamaran experience was simply spectacular. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The snorkeling activity was unforgettable; diving in and seeing the wreck along with the shoal of fish was something you don’t live every day. Also, the music was great, the snacks were delicious and the drinks very good quality. A 100% recommended experience!
Good experience

5.00We booked with Octopus very last minute it was the best decision we could have made! They picked us up from our resort promptly and told us all about the island on our drive to the beach. The catamaran was the perfect size for our small group and our captain, Richard was awesome, explaining a bit of the history behind the scuttled ship and the rest of the crew were so nice! Highly recommend!
Love the smaller personalized experience

5.00The smaller group size is what made this cruise better. We have been in multiple car cruises in aruba and the small size and amazing service made this one stand out above the rest. Do NOT make these cruises bigger.
