Itinerary

  1. Our driver will collect you from your designated spot and provide transport to our dock located in our capital, Bridgetown. Upon arrival, the check in process will be completed and you will be guided to board the catamaran. Our Captain and crew will welcome you aboard and before the tour commences a safety briefing and a run through of the features of the boat will be provided. Our adventure begins as we depart our dock and make our way to the Marine Park for the first and second stops which will each last for approximately 45 minutes. Our crew will accompany you as we explore the abundance of marine life underwater. The highlight of these two stops will be swimming with the turtles, seeing tropical fish, sting rays, corals, sea sponges, sea fans and snorkeling over the shipwrecks.

  2. Our journey continues as we sail along the coast towards our lunch stop, while you continue to soak up the island vibes by relaxing, listening to Caribbean music while keeping hydrated with our open bar options (sodas, juices, water, beer, rums including our famous rum punch made from an old family recipe). After we anchor in a bay, you have the opportunity to continue to socalise with other guests, relax or enjoy a swim, while our crew prepares to serve our freshly prepared Bajan-buffet styled meal. The duration of this stop is approximately one hour, after which our tour comes to an end as we return to our dock to meet your transport.
