Hop on board a spacious 40-foot catamaran and head out along the beautiful coasts of St. Martin on a day cruise. Lounge on the boat's nets with a cold drink from our open bar and enjoy snacks and music. Snorkel, swim, and stop for a lunch in Grand Case. Take off from the marina and earn your first drink of the day by helping the crew hoist the sail. Starting along the typical route, head down the south coast of St. Maarten, passing Maho and Mullet Bay. Head up the west coast towards Creole Rock, off the coast of Grand Case, for snorkeling and swimming. Snorkel gear along with float belts are provided. Once you've used up some energy snorkeling, it's time for lunch. Lunch is served at the local chicken and rib shacks in Grand Case. After about an hour, continue up the north side of the island and into Tintamarre. More swimming can be done here and you can even relax on Tintamarre’s warm sandy beach. On the way home, hoist the sails again and travel along the rugged, wind burnt east coast of the island when the winds are safe. Toast to your trip with drinks, music, and dancing on the ride home.

This tour starts at From $118 per person on GetYourGuide on our last refresh. Prices vary by date, season, and group size, and private-charter options are priced by the boat rather than per head. Click the Book button to see live pricing for your dates.
Most tours on GetYourGuide offer free cancellation up to 24 hours before departure. Look for the cancellation policy on the GetYourGuide tour page before booking — it's flagged prominently on the offer card.
You don't need to be a strong swimmer — operators provide life vests and snorkel gear, and the crew watches the water at each stop. If you have specific concerns, message the operator through GetYourGuide before booking; they reply within hours.
Typically local rum, beer, soft drinks, and water — unlimited during the cruise. Premium spirits are usually a paid extra. Pace yourself: wind and sun hide intoxication and the deck moves.
December – April (dry season, steady trade winds). Shoulder months (may, june, november (shoulder bargains)) are the best-value window — smaller crowds, lower prices, mostly the same conditions. Avoid september – october (hurricane window).
10–15 % cash to the captain at the end. Cash to the captain at the end of the trip — they share with the deckhands. Service is sometimes included on private charters; check the booking confirmation.
