Snorkeling Klein Curaçao: Private 38ft yacht with sea turtles

Snorkel alongside sea turtles, then grill lunch on the boat

A private 38ft yacht takes you to Klein Curaçao for a full day of snorkeling, beach exploration and island landmarks, with a live English-, Spanish- or Dutch-speaking guide. You'll swim with sea turtles in clear water, visit the island's lighthouse and shipwreck site, and return to the boat for a grilled lunch with champagne and local rum included.

Step-by-step itinerary

Luxury yacht trip to Klein Curaçao

• Set sail on 38ft private boat
• Relax on powder-white beach
• Snorkel with sea turtles
• Explore lighthouse and shipwreck
• Enjoy BBQ lunch on board or beach

The experience

The boat departs Curaçao and carries up to a small group to Klein Curaçao, where the snorkeling happens in shallow, clear water alongside sea turtles. The island itself holds a working lighthouse and a shipwreck you can explore on foot or by swimming, so the day splits between time in the water and time on the powder-white beach. Your guide navigates the stops and stays with the group throughout.

Lunch is a mixed grill platter (honey chicken satay, tenderloin, chorizo, spare ribs, corn on the cob and garlic bread) served either on board or under a shaded setup on the beach, depending on the day. Soft drinks, bottled water, snacks, a bottle of champagne and a bottle of local rum come with the booking, so you're not stopping to buy anything mid-day. The full outing runs six hours.

Is this one for you?Six hours leaves the rest of your day free in Curaçao, so you can pair this with a morning in Willemstad or an evening meal without rushing. The private boat means your group sets the pace at each stop: longer in the water if the snorkeling is good, or more time on the beach exploring the lighthouse and wreck.

Top questions

What languages is the tour guided in?

Live guide in English, Spanish and Dutch.

What's the snorkeling like at Klein Curaçao?

The water is clear and shallow enough to see sea turtles swimming near the surface. The snorkeling happens right off the island's beach, so there's no long boat ride to the reef.

Can I visit the lighthouse and shipwreck on the same day?

Yes. Klein Curaçao's lighthouse and shipwreck site are both on the island, and your guide will take you to both during the beach portion of the day. You can explore them on foot or swim to the wreck depending on your preference.

Is the BBQ lunch included, or do I pay extra?

The BBQ lunch is included. It's a mixed grill platter with chicken satay, tenderloin, chorizo, spare ribs, corn and garlic bread, served either on the boat or under a beach shelter.

What drinks come with the yacht charter?

Soft drinks, bottled water, snacks, a bottle of champagne and a bottle of local rum are all included. Ice and a coolbox keep everything cold throughout the day.

How many people can fit on the boat?

The 38ft yacht carries a small private group. Your guide speaks English, Spanish or Dutch and stays with everyone for the full six hours.
