This was a very fun excursion! We met up with our small group outside the cruise terminal gate. We rode in a taxi to the catamaran. Because it was a small group tour, we boarded onto the smaller of the two catamaran. Our guides were Daniel and Ocean. They did a phenominal job of navigating the boat and being great hosts with offerings of drinks and banana bread. Our first stop was over some shipwrecks. We snorkeled over 3 different sunken vessels where we could see many different and colorful fish. The 2nd stop was to swim with the sea turtles. We only saw a few. Not the fault of our guides. That is just how it goes. From there, we got back on the catamaran and did some scenic sailing. Daniel and Ocean told us many interesting facts and tidbits about the sites we were seeing as we floated along. Because we were only on the short sailing without lunch, we were dropped off along the beach where a taxi was waiting to take us back to the ship. It was an enjoyable few hours. I would recommend this to anyone that just wants a few hours on the water. We chose this particular one as it was with a small group. It was exactly what we had hoped.

We have in Barbados...

We booked a three hour catamaran cruise in Barbados and would do it again anytime. Particularly positive: punctual pick-up directly at the cruise terminal and just as punctual return within the promised time window – absolutely crucial for cruise guests and perfectly adhered to here. On board we were only six guests with two crew members, which made it very personal and enjoyable. The crew took really great care of it: regular drinks, plus small snacks, without having to ask constantly. The process was ideal: First we went to two snorkel spots in the bay right next to the port. Afterwards we sailed along the coast for another two hours, simply to enjoy the view and the panorama. On the way, a guide has repeatedly given exciting information about the island, the history and the sights on land. The second crew/guide part accompanied the snorkeling, alerted us to special features and made sure we felt safe throughout. Overall, a very well organized, relaxed and at the same time informative tour – clear recommendation, especially for cruise guests who value timing and reliability.
