Your boat, your rhythm, your choice of ocean

The Experience

Four hours and you're calling the shots — that's the whole point. The 48-foot catamaran sits ready in Playa Flamingo with snorkeling gear, water skis, a wakeboard, fishing rods, and a crew that knows how to read the water. You want to fish the Gulf first and hunt for dolphins? Done. Skip straight to the beach and spend two hours in the water? They'll adjust. The boat has air conditioning, a full kitchen, a fighting chair if you're serious about the catch, and enough space that families don't feel cramped.

The snorkeling happens in crystal-clear water near a beach stop, and the fishing is live — Garmin GPS and a 40-mile radar mean the crew finds where the fish actually are, not where they think they might be. If the tide is right, you'll visit the tidal caves; if it's high, the mangrove is the move instead. Waterskiing and wakeboarding are there if someone in your group wants the adrenaline; tubing and wave runners round it out. A private naturalist guide comes along, so you're not just doing things — you're learning what you're looking at.

Food and drink are built in: beer, a bottle of white wine, guacamole, pico de gallo, chips, fresh fruit, water, sodas, and juices. Nothing fancy, but it's there so you're not hungry or thirsty between activities. The crew handles the equipment setup and knows the conditions — they'll tell you if the swell is right for skiing or if snorkeling is the better call that day. You're not managing logistics; you're just deciding what sounds good next.

What’s included

  • Your four hours include use of the 48ft catamaran with air conditioning and full kitchen, snorkeling equipment, fishing gear (light and heavy tackle, electric teaser reels, live well), water skis, wakeboard, tubing, and wave runners.
  • A private naturalist guide is onboard.
  • Food and beverages include beer, white wine, guacamole, pico de gallo, chips, fresh fruit, water, sodas, and natural juices.
  • The crew handles equipment setup and helps you choose activities based on conditions and your preferences.

Is this one for you?Right for families or groups who want flexibility over a fixed itinerary — you pick snorkeling, fishing, water sports, or a mix, and the crew adjusts the boat's route and pace to match. Plan for four hours on the water; that's the window, and it's what lets you fit multiple activities without rushing.
