The experience

The catamaran picks you up from your hotel at 1:30 PM and boards at 3 PM. Once aboard, the live DJ starts the hip-hop, R&B, Dancehall and Afrobeats mix while the boat heads into the turquoise Caribbean. The first stop is a guided snorkeling session in clear water where you'll see the marine life. From there the boat cruises past Dolphins Island so you can watch them in their natural habitat and get photos. The whole sequence, pickup to departure, is built around the afternoon window, so the day leaves your morning and evening free.

The grand finale is the sand bar: a natural pool in waist-deep water where the party shifts into high gear. You dance, swim, mingle with the other guests, and the open bar keeps the drinks flowing. The music doesn't stop, the water is warm and shallow, and there's room to move. At 6 PM the boat heads back to the dock with music and games still running, and you're back at your hotel by early evening.

The boat is catamaran-sized and adults-only, which shapes the whole vibe. Snorkeling gear, appetizers, and safety equipment are all provided. The crew includes a dedicated host and a live DJ. The guide speaks English, Spanish, and French. Tips are optional at checkout.
