The crew was friendly, welcoming, and made the entire trip feel relaxed and enjoyable. They provided drinks and snacks throughout the sail, which made it easy to just unwind and take it all in.
It was the perfect mix of peaceful and fun, and such a great way to end the day. I would definitely recommend this cruise to anyone visiting St. Maarten!

This is a max 16 passenger sunset cruise. Very cool and Pieter and Marion were great. Very professional and friendly staff and the fellow cruisers were so nice too.

Had a wonderful, relaxing time on this sunset catamaran tour. The couple who hosts is simply lovely. They give you a little history lesson of the island, point out the landscape along the way, and serve you nonstop with food and drinks. Such a great start to a vacation.

The sunset ride was so peaceful, romantic, and relaxing. Plenty of snacks and drinks to go around! Service was great!
Rina_Y, Jun 2026
This was a wonderful experience! Pieter and Miriam were great guides. Very relaxing evening on the water. Great for our big family!
Deninne_H, Jun 2026
Wonderful experience. Small capacity (up to 16 passengers) makes it ideal. Intimate and not overly crowded. Very friendly hosts
Nightly recommended

Very impressive view. I did beautiful shots.
Miriam and Peter were very friendly and welcoming to guests!
I would share my pictures but unfortunately here can not be downloaded
Than you so much, Miriam and Peter!

Absolutely excellent. We paid for a taxi to get there. He took us to the wrong pick up spot. The boat picked us up in a water taxi and still got us in time.
Wendy_B, Apr 2026
Traffic around the pick up area is heavy, get there early and wait at the Nowhere Special bar. There are some parking spots there but not many. A dingy takes you to the catamaran. It's a husband and wife team that have been doing this for a long time. Very professional. The group was small (about 16 people) and the atmosphere was casual. Some appetizers (mini pizzas, baguette with variety of cheeses and cure meats) and for drinks (wine, prosecco, rum punch). We had a good time but missed having some music to compliment the scenery.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Dear Wendy, thank you very much for your review.
We are happy you enjoyed the experience. With regards to the music comment: not having music on board is a well thought of choice we made when starting our sailing experiences 18 years ago. This is how it is advertised in the text on Tripadvisor and Viator. We and many other guests particularly enjoy listening to the wind in the sails and water against the hull and not be confronted with a style of music one or the other may not like. Real sailing, small groups and not having music is precisely what makes us unique compared to our colleagues...and we like to be a little bit different.

Very gracious host and hostess. They were so kind and accommodating. It was a great ending to our day and overall a great experience.
Jim_B, Apr 2026
Great experience. Captain and crew took great care of us. Rum punch and snacks were great. Do it by all means.
Cami_M, Apr 2026
Chill vibes, drinks were great. Perfect for relaxing and sightseeing with no pressure to socialize. Boat is comfortable!
Carey_S, Apr 2026
Beautiful catamaran, lovely people/owners, great snacks, amazing views. I loved there was an max of 16 people onboard. Overall a really great evening- we will be repeat customers!
Doug_A, Mar 2026
Captain Pieter is excellent. Miriam was a delight as well. Snacks were great and beers plentiful. Great sail!
Dorothy_D, Mar 2026
Very positive experience. Kind and helpful hosts. Interesting facts and anecdotes about the area. We really enjoyed the sunset sail.
Mira_M, Mar 2026
Friendly staff, good food and drinks. Everything was plentiful. Cloudy towards the end so not much of a sunset but still a good night.
Nicole_S, Mar 2026
This was an amazing sunset sail and an absolute must do! The hosts were so kind and took extra care to make sure the sail was something to remember.

Amazing experience !
Operators very professional and friendly
I would definately recommend to try this
Donald_P, Mar 2026
The hosts were very friendly and the sunset was beautiful. The trip started relatively on time as they did their best to accommodate some late travelers but ultimately the sunset waits for no one! Follow instructions and get there early and you'll have no issues. Snacks and drinks were good and we had a very nice group of travelers to enjoy the experience with. Since we were staying in the Philipsburg area, we paired this experience with a dinner in Simpsons Bay which made for a very nice late afternoon through dinner experience.
Daniel_B, Mar 2026
Beautiful experience with an amazing staff. Great drinks, light bites, and views. Staff was very communicative and responsive to messages.
Mark_V, Feb 2026
Sailing tour around the western part of the island, expertly managed by Pieter. Sailing is so much more peaceful than a motorized craft. Pieter and his partner were a crack crew managing navigation and making nobody's glasses were empty.

Great crew and experience highly recommend! Roomy Trimaran, very knowledgeable about the area and hospitable.

Nice 2 hour tour to see the sunset, the shoreline, and the amazing yachts. Friendly crew. Flowing wine, beer, rum punch, and sparkling wine. Fun group of passengers - not crowded.
Ross_G, Jan 2026
Great experience
Peter and his colleague were awesome! Beautiful views and good navigation during a few rough clouds!
Patricia_D, Jan 2026
I have been on a handful of catamaran cruises, and this is the first time they actually put the sails out. They also have padded bench seats, so you did not have to sit on the tarp getting drenched by the waves if you didn’t want to. The hostess couple were very prompt, friendly and attentive. If you’re looking for a party cruise with loud music and dancing, this is not your trip.
Mark_F, Jan 2026
Beautiful night and dynamite experience. Miriam and her husband do a great job of hosting with tasty appetizers and lots of cold libations. They work crazy hard with the wind, all we had to do was eat, drink and take pictures.
Great experience, we would highly recommend
L_F, Jan 2026
We always take this tour on our last night on the island. It's a perfect way to end our trip. It's a beautiful sail, not too crowded, and a perfect pre dinner happy hour. I hope to do it many more times!
Jacques_C, Jan 2026
Very experienced and welcoming couple. The captain has 45 years of experience.. Snacks were really well done. Thanks again for the great Sail.
Gene_T, Jan 2026
Best customer experience of the day: the taxi cab took us to the wrong spot, and they went out of their way to come get us.
