Join us for an unforgettable snorkel cruise aboard our beautiful double-decker motorized catamaran.

Once you’ve boarded, we’ll set sail through the tranquil lagoon. Sit back, relax, and enjoy a scenic sightseeing cruise through Spanish Waters, where stunning waterfront villas and impressive yachts line the shores.

After a comfortable ride, we arrive at our first snorkel stop: the famous Tugboat Wreck—one of the island’s top snorkeling sites and the best way to experience it. Dive into crystal-clear waters and explore the sunken tugboat, vibrant coral formations, and an abundance of marine life.

Next, we head to a second snorkel location at a shallow reef just around the corner, giving you another chance to enjoy Curaçao’s National Underwater Park. While you’re snorkeling, our crew prepares a delicious BBQ buffet lunch on board. You’ll also enjoy an open bar featuring soft drinks, fruit punch, water, beer, wine, rum, vodka, and rum punch (selection subject to availability).

We had a wonderful experience with this tour! Pick up from the hotel was seamless and the driver was very friendly. The crew on the boat “We Jammin” was amazing too, very friendly and upbeat. The food we were served for lunch was delicious, the drinks were great, and the whole trip overall was great. Definitely felt like you get your moneys worth with this group! As someone who had never been snorkeling before, the 2 stops were fantastic, the water was calm and the fish and sights were amazing. Felt like a perfect amount of time too, we got to see lots of things and have a meal and drinks and still had time at the end of the day to do other things when we returned to the hotel. There were a decent amount of people on the boat but it didn’t feel overcrowded. Crowd included all age ranges and it was clear everyone was enjoying it, I would recommend this for any one looking for a fun relaxing, exciting excursion. The crew was fantastic!
10/10 would highly recommend!

10/10 experience! The staff, the snorkeling, the food, the experience… it was all amazing! Seeing the dolphins was a bonus. Definitely the highlight of our trip. Thanks for such a great time! Would highly recommend for anyone wanting to snorkel.

Fantastic! We arranged for hotel pick-up, and it was easy-breezy, also a good way to get a little acquainted with the fellow travelers. The bus drove through Willemstad to get to the port, and then we were off on a lovely cruise. We saw lots of fish when we snorkeled, then ate a delicious meal prepared on the boat, and had another opportunity to jump in the water to snorkel again. 10/10 recommend this cruise.
Nice boat, great crew

Crew was wonderful. Snorkeling was okay, but not spectacular and it is really only one snorkel stop. The boat moves about one hundred yards to the “second” stop.
Absolutely must try when in Curacao!

We had an amazing time on the half-day boat trip! Be sure to get there early as the boat leaves right on time, if not early. Captain Esther & her team were so attentive - they truly made the experience worthwhile. Everyone’s dietary restrictions were noted and the lunch was DELICIOUS! Snorkeling was okay, not too many tropical fish and we did get stung by lots of small jellies. I wouldn’t let that discourage anyone from booking, the overall experience was fabulous!
Super fun snorkel tour

Nice trip and well organized. Clear explanation of the trip. The bar opens immediately with alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. 2 snorkeling spots close together including Tugboat. Then delicious lunch with chicken skewers, beef skewers, chorizo sausage, div salads, baguette , wrap and fruit. Cozy music on board. The crew was friendly and welcoming!
Best Time Ever!!!

Was unable to get a taxi from the Royal Caribbean port to the meeting destination after trying for an hour. Actually found employees from Irie tours at the port and explain to them what was going on, their response was basically "too bad so sad" So we lost $250, ruined the entire day for our family because Curacao port authority directs taxis and frankly they suck. Now we are being told we can't get a refund even though none of this was our fault. Will be processing a chargeback and posting a one-star review.
