Itinerary

Meet for this Bonaire catamaran tour at the Bonaire Nautico Marina. Board your catamaran and set off sailing between the coastline of Bonaire and Klein Bonaire.

First off is a stop at the Bonaire Marine Park for some time snorkeling in the water. Plus, all necessary snorkeling equipment is provided for you to make the day easy. A guide leads the way near the coral reefs to catch sight of fish and other marine life.

After your first snorkel, your guide sails the boat over to a secluded spot so you can either choose to relax, swim, or do some more snorkeling on your own.

Your crew prepares a delicious seafood barbecue for the group on board the boat with alcoholic beverages and other beverage options included.

Your Bonaire catamaran tour ends back at the marina after all the fun.

We had an amazing time on the Chill and Grill tour. The boat captain and crew were very friendly and worked hard to make sure everyone had a good time. The snorkeling was good and some of us saw a spotted eagle Ray which is rare to see one. The food served was top notch also. Would highly recommend this tour!

An Amazing Adventure

MeLisa_J, Aug 2026
We had the best time on the Chill & Grill Catamaran! Emily and Daphne were absolutely the best ever. Their hosting was impressive! They were friendly, personable, funny, very knowledgeable, and incredibly accommodating throughout the entire trip. The sailing was smooth and relaxing, the snorkeling was amazing, and the food was delicious. They made sure everyone felt comfortable and had a great time. Their hospitality truly made the experience special. We would definitely do this again and highly recommend the Chill & Grill Catamaran

An Unforgettable Catamaran and Snorkeling Adventure in Bonaire!

Edwardson_L, Aug 2026
Our catamaran cruise with Captain Emily and her fantastic crew, Ryan and Jamie, was the absolute highlight of our Catamaran trip. As generous and attentive hosts, they ensured we had a wonderful experience both on and off the water. Before departure, Captain Emily carefully assessed the weather - taking wind, waves, and currents into account to choose the safest and most rewarding snorkeling spots for our group. The Snorkeling: Bonaire truly is a snorkeling paradise! We explored two incredible sites and encountered sea turtles, tarpon, schools of fish, and dozens of vibrant reef creatures in every color imaginable. The Hospitality: Beyond the stunning marine life, the food and drinks were exceptionally well-prepared and served proportionately. We cannot recommend Epic Tours (Chill & Grill Catamaran Tour) enough. Captain Emily, Ryan, and Jamie made an already amazing destination feel extra special!

denise_l, Jan 2026
It was great start to finish. Beautiful snorkeling. Saw a huge stingray many fish. Food was amazing. Fresh maui maui and grill steak. The sunset and ride back finished the tour just right. The staff was attentative. Maggie and Charlotte were awesome. Kept the drinks flowing. The captain was great and he was also our cook!. Ride back in the dark was fun seeing all the lights esp the ship all lit up. Great for smaller groups . Not over crowded. Would definitely do again. Perfect day!

Great experience!!!

Great experience! Food, drinks, staff and tour was all top notch. You won’t be disappointed booking this when in Bonaire!

Best Catamaran EVER!

Kirah_D, Dec 2025
WONDERFUL! Crew was so kind and everyone enjoyed the food. Snorkeling was fun and they tell you about the different fish you see and tell you a bit about the area in general you are swimming. They have noodles for those who want to use while snorkeling to help with fatigue. I was nervous about snorkeling (never done it before) and they made me feel incredibly secure and kept checking in. Also, drinks are non stop! They are not stingy at all ( yes, alcoholic drinks galore!) Definitely a good time with a good crew. Go ahead, book it!

Must do in Bonaire

Corinne_K, Nov 2025
From start to finish the crew was amazing. The boat tour was truly one of the best experiences of my Bonaire trip. Highly recommend.

Low key, but great!

Jackie_B, Nov 2025
First and foremost, this is NOT a party catamaran. At first we were pretty disappointed, I'm not gonna lie. At the end of the day, though, we almost preferred it. Chill music, lovely employees, and the food was AMAZING. Best food we had on our entire 8 day trip. If your heart is set on an alcohol-flowing, music- thumping catamaran, look elsewhere. However, if there's a chance you might enjoy a peaceful cruise with a few beers and some great food, give it a shot.

Loved it!

Lauren_M, Nov 2025
Wonderful vibe! Jamie was a welcoming, funny, enthusiastic leader and hostess. With the Captain/grill master, they made the experience comfortable and relaxing. Capping the group at 10 people I'm sure can be a make/break on the group dynamic. But as a solo traveler I left so happy!

Good snorkeling

nancyaeschbach, Nov 2025
The snorkeling was enjoyable and the meal was very good. Unfortunately, the catamaran was not in good condition including no functional toilet and appeared run down.

15/10 Would Recommend

Kaylee_D, Oct 2025
Absolutely incredible! 15/10 would recommend! Captain Marco, Maria and Jamie were amazing. Service and food were top notch!! Food was cooked by Captain Marco himself. WE LOVED EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS EXCURSION. Maria was so knowledgeable when it came to snorkeling and the fish we were able to see! Jamie was such a pleasure to get to know! Her personal journey is so encouraging. Captain Marco wasn’t just a captain, he was attentive to everyone as well the managing the boat! Snorkeling gear was also incredible. Thank you for such a wonderful day!

Highly recommended

Fervic_S, Jul 2025
Awesome crew, snorkeling sites, booze and food. Overall, the entire sunset cruise experience was amazing. Must do in the island! 🏝️

No Regrets

Eric_S, Jul 2025
I won’t be saying anything that wasn’t said before here: quality experience, attentive and friendly service, memorable time. I criticize myself for placing this adventure near the end of our trip but honestly the silver lining is I can competently evaluate that this one is a tough act to follow. First, the staff (shout out to Calvin) are genuine, in love with their jobs, and take your comfort (and safety) seriously. They sprinkle a bit of history during the journey, give you flexibility when snorkeling (guided or not, you are master of your domain) and always mobile about the vessel while filling in the spaces by offering and bringing you drinks. Experience aside, we were fed like kings and queens and they frankly put a lot of the restaurants back on shore on notice: we do it better, so up your game. Everything was top shelf and in retrospect a crazy value for “what you get”. Go here. Do this. No regrets.

The views? Amazing. The food? Delicious!

Lynette_K, Jul 2025
The food was my highlight, followed by the chill vibes. The snorkel was so so but we spotted a turtle. The crew was lovely!

A fun late afternoon catamaran dinner experience
