We had such a wonderful time together sailing along the beautiful Aruban coast line. The water is the most beautiful turquoise blue you could imagine! The music, the staff & the other tourists made it such a special & memorable evening watching the sunset!

We loved this boat ride! Killian, Sal, and Mario were so kind and helpful. We were celebrating my wife’s birthday and she had the time of her life. The music and energy was fantastic and the sunset was beautiful. 2 hours is the perfect amount of time to be out on the water. Only
thing to keep in mind for kids is that there is an open bar. There’s juice available but if you’re on a boat with lots of middle aged people…you can see where that may go wrong haha. We had a mixed age crowd which was awesome! We will surely be back.

A great sunset cruise! The crew was fun and engaging! They had an open bar and some light snacks. But the highlight is being able to be on the water at sunset!
Response from Host, Aug 2026
There’s something truly special about watching the sun go down from the water, and we’re so glad you got to experience it with us!
We hope that Aruba sunset stays with you long after your vacation,

Relaxing and fun staff. Gorgeous scenery. Drinks were good and the snacks were on point (cheese/olive and fruit skewers then some island favs).

The communication was great prior to cruise. We loved the crew, the drinks and the experience! The only disappointment was the snacks that were served.

It just occurred to me that I've taken this same sunset cruise with this company four years in a row, and I never took the time to leave a review.
I highly recommend this company. The catamaran provides an extremely enjoyable sail and the staff does a great job. The hors d’oeuvres are very good and my kids really enjoy them especially. There's an open bar, but it never turns into a crazy booze cruise, making it great for families.
I'll definitely be back next year for my 5th cruise in a row.
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Four years of sunsets together... we couldn't ask for a better compliment!
Thank you for your continued trust, it means so much to know our Sunset Cruise has become part of your Aruba tradition, and we're especially happy to hear it's an experience your whole family enjoys.
We'll be looking forward to welcoming you back for year number five!

There is so much going on that makes this trip fun! There is singing, and dancing and a wind surfer stopped by a few times, and he did tricks for us! There were beautiful seagulls,. that accompanied use throughout the whole trip. We got a picture of the pirate boat sailing in front of the sunset. The crew was great. You should have a professional photographer on board!
Response from Host, May 2026
Wow, it sounds like you caught the perfect sunset magic on board! We're so glad you enjoyed the music, the dancing, and having the seagulls accompany you along the way. Thank you for the feedback and the great suggestion about the photographer! We hope to have you back with us for more unforgettable moments soon.

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
Response from Host, May 2026
Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re really glad you felt comfortable and could relax enough to enjoy the sunset. Our crew will be happy to know they helped make it such a smooth and enjoyable evening for you!
Hope we get to welcome you back onboard next time you’re on the island.

Nancy_J, Apr 2026
My husband and I chose this tour because we had my elderly parents with us, and wanted a less party and more relaxed experience. This trip did not disappoint, plenty of room to sit back and relax looking out into the beautiful ocean, shoreline, wind in your hair, music in the background and a windsurfer sailed by a few times keeping us entertained us as well. The crew was great and the sunset was beautiful. Thank you for a wonderful experience!
Response from Host, Apr 2026
So nice to read this, thank you Nancy! We’re really glad you had such a smooth and enjoyable afternoon out on the water.
Hope we get to have you back again next time you’re in Aruba!

The crew we had were absolutely amazing! I was a little concerned after trying to talk to the people at the check in area, but we ran into Alberto while waiting for them to open up check in and he was super friendly and funny. We got put on his ship with Orlando and Sam. Every member of the crew was focused on making sure we had a great time. Orlando kept the drinks flowing with a smile, and Sam took care of everyone’s needs- played the best tunes, danced with us. Alberto steered us along safely and let my friend have a titanic moment with him haha seriously, these guys are the best! I could not have imagined having so much fun on a sunset cruise!!!
Response from Host, Jan 2026
What a great story to read! We’re really glad the sunset cruise turned into such a fun and relaxed evening, full of good energy, music, and unforgettable moments.
