Falmouth Jamaica Catamaran Sail & Snorkel Private Tour

The reef comes to you before the crowds find the dock.

A private catamaran sail and snorkel tour from Falmouth Jamaica picks up cruise passengers at the port and takes a small group to offshore reefs for snorkeling, with unlimited drinks and all gear included. The boat moors at the Marine Park reefs while your ship is docked, and you return to port in time to reboard. Dunn's River Waterfalls is an optional add-on; the core tour runs four hours and keeps your group separate from the larger excursion crowds.

The Experience

Your group gets picked up at the Falmouth port in a van or coach and driven to the boat launch, where you board a private catamaran with the captain and crew. Snorkeling happens first, before the drinks service starts—you get fitted with gear at the reef offshore in the Marine Park, and the crew handles setup even if you've never snorkeled before. The boat stays moored at the reef long enough to explore, then heads back toward calmer water where you can swim and relax in the sun.

Unlimited drinks run throughout the sail, and the open bar stays open the whole time you're on the water. The four-hour window is built around cruise ship timing: you know your docking and re-boarding times when you book, and the return gets you back to the port with time to spare. Snorkel gear, the environmental reef tax and port transport are all included, so there's nothing to arrange once you're on the boat.

Dunn's River Waterfalls—the cascading natural springs that feed the most visited Jamaican attraction—can be added as a stop if your group wants it. The boat docks and you walk up the falls themselves instead of viewing them from a distance. That option extends the day and changes the itinerary, so you choose it at checkout depending on whether your group wants the waterfall or prefers to stay anchored at the reef.

Is this one for you?Book this tour if your group wants to snorkel and relax without joining the crowded shore excursion lines—the private boat and fixed return time mean you control when you're back at the port, and the reef moor happens while your ship is still docked.

Top questions

What happens if I've never snorkeled before?

The crew fits you with snorkel gear and stays in the water with your group at the reef. No experience is required, and the setup happens before drinks service starts so you can focus on the water.

How do I get from the cruise ship to the catamaran?

Port pickup is included: a van or coach meets your group at the Falmouth port and drives you to the boat launch dock, then returns you to the port in time to reboard your ship.

Can I add Dunn's River Waterfalls to the sail and snorkel tour?

Yes—Dunn's River Waterfalls is available as an add-on option at checkout. The boat docks at the falls so you can walk the cascading waters themselves, and the stop extends the total time on the water.

What's included in the unlimited drinks?

The open bar runs the entire sail, and drinks are included in the tour price. You choose what you want throughout the four hours on the water.

What if my group has young children or people with mobility concerns?

The tour is wheelchair accessible and suitable for all fitness levels. Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller, and the boat itself has crew support for boarding and moving around the deck.
