Beautiful sunset cruise
Pepper, Kiwi, and the captain took great care of us for this sunset cruise. It was open bar (liquors only) and some snacks (limited snacks, but we had dinner reservations after the cruise so the food was unimportant). We stayed on the west side of the island and it was beautiful. I was a little worried as I get sea sick and it was crazy windy. The catamaran was stable and large enough that I didn’t get sick. I did wear pants after reading about all the skirts flying up w the wind. Would recommend this boat ride

This was a great tour!!...
This was a great tour!! The meeting location from the ship port was very easy to find. On a very hot day, it was great to have a smaller, air-conditioned bus. Our group was only 11 people, so it was very personable. Ato was our tour guide and he was GREAT! He was very knowledgeable of Aruba and the history, and shared many things between each stop. We had about 15-20 minutes at each stop, which we felt was enough time. Each of the stops were great and very well planned out!
The beach was great! Be sure to eat at Big Mama’s (the restaurant on the beach) before heading out to the beach. They were very quick getting food and drinks to the table so we ended up having a little over an hour (of the 1.5 hours) to spend on the beach, which was plenty. There was plenty space on the beach at the time that we got there. Everything was very clean, including the bathrooms.
Overall, I could not have been more satisfied with this choice for our 1 day cruise port shop!

1st time snorkeling
The experience was great! I booked the excursion so that my husband and friends could snorkel. I normally am pretty scared to do it. But We had the wonderful Jose on our trip and he assured me I would be okay! And I was! I was so thankful he gave me the experience.

Must do!!
Ty guys for the great day! I Highly recommend this boat, the crew was entertaining, fun and helpful (also easy on the eyes🤪) this boat had a sturdy staircase that extended into the ocean, which made it easy to get in and out of water.. lunch was amazing and plentiful (salad, fish, coleslaw, chicken, rice n beans, pasta, even cupcakes) everything was very good! Open bar with lots of cocktail choice. Captain was responsible, we felt safe and informed. The boat stopped 3x for snorkeling .. just don't forget your towel & sunblock or a swim shirt! Thanks for a great experience!

Always a jolly time.
Our favorite adventure of the week. We’ve done other snorkeling and catamarans here but nothing beats the Jolly Pirates. The boat is cool, staff is fun and friendly, great for family. Be careful the Rum Punch hits haha. Captain Ron and his crew are awesome! Great time and adventure!

The best one ever! The...
The best one ever! The crew is wonderful and made it a party brunch with a non-stop yummi snacks and food treatments. They will meet you with your cup of drink and will refill it as soon as it goes off empty. They know the right spots to take you too and are just happy smiling faces. Thank you so much for an amazing experience! Greatly recommend! You absolutely won't regret.

Best 40th Birthday
This was the best way to end my 40th birthday! Everyone should experience a sunset boat ride and a beach dinner. The crew on the boat was absolutely amazing. They were friendly and accommodating. The drinks were flowing and the music was a nice touch. After we docked and had a nicely lit dinner. Do yourself a favor and book this experience, you won’t be disappointed.

Best Snorkel trip
I have done several snorkel trips like this one and this one by far was the best. The crew was helpful, super nice, the food was really good, we stopped in 4 places to snorkel. They were very concerned with our safety since the water was a bit rough. Their equipment was very clean and sanitized. I would do this same trip again with this crew.

Great water experience
Booking was simple and finding the shack on the beach was clear.
The waverunners were in good condition and we had a great time.
We saw fish jumping in the water and plenty of sea turtles.
There is no place to store belongings on the waverunner. We left our belongings in the shack. They provide hooks for bags.

Submarine Dive.
Definitely a great adventure. Very good guide and 140 feet dive into the coral reef. Definitely recommend. There is ample space to sit and the views are incredible. We went at 11am and the timing was perfect. It is about 1.5 hours long and the dive is around 45 minutes.

Amazing day!
This was our best excursion of our entire stay. The crew is so entertaining. They made sure to point out turtles, the food was actually delicious and the rope swing was awesome! If you want a fun snorkeling adventure you will not regret choosing the Pirate ship!

They were extremely kind....
They were extremely kind. Unfortunately we were unable to make our original booking and they were so flexible and kind enough to accommodate us. The location was very easy to locate, staff were very kind and helpful. I had such a fun time with my friends!!!
