Noord: Morning Catamaran Tour with Snorkeling, Food & Drinks
About this experience

Beginning your half-day cruise in the morning, you will stop to explore two beautiful destinations. The first is the Antilla Shipwreck, a sunken ship from World War II. On your way there, your guides will serve you homemade baked goods, complete with some delicious mimosa cocktails. Your crew will then provide you with a brief history lesson, before you embark to explore the local marine life. Your second snorkel stop will be to Boca Catalina Bay. Following this second location, you will be provided with a yummy lunch consisting of french bead topped with cheese, turkey, and salad. On your way back to shore, your guides will provide you with fresh fruit to top off your adventure. The cocktail bar is also open throughout the whole cruise, and snorkel disinfectant equipment is also included.

Reviews

★★★★★

"Loved the crew. Very informative and attentive. Gave good historical history as well as safety information. Crew did a good job of keeping their eyes on everyone in the water. Food was good and plentiful."

Bernadette · verified guest

★★★★★

"The staff was fun and engaging. They took very good care of everyone on board. There were about 40 passengers ranging from 6 years old to well into the late 70's, so there was much to handle. This crew smiled and handled it all with a casual breeziness that made the whole day run smoothly."
