What To Expect

Following pickup in the morning from your St. Kitts hotel, transfer to the marina where your boat is waiting.

Climb aboard the 52 or 70-foot (15 or 21meter) catamaran and find a comfortable spot to enjoy the ride. Stretch out on the deck and enjoy the sun's rays or seek out a shady spot in the boat's cabin. An expert captain and crew are on hand to ensure you have a safe, entertaining day. Bring plenty of sunscreen and towels and don't forget your camera.

Watch as the shoreline of St. Kitts recedes and the boat cuts through the turquoise waters that separate St. Kitts and its sister island, Nevis. The captain will pick a spot to moor the boat so you can take advantage of the spectacular visibility and snorkeling conditions. Slip on the provided mask, fins, and snorkel and jump in.

Float languidly among schools of colorful fish, watching them dart in and out of the maze of living coral. Climb back aboard and dry off, then grab a drink from the full bar. Depending on the boat used the crew will set up lunch on board prior to arriving into Nevis or on the beach.The boat will continue sailing until it reaches a pristine beach on Nevis.

With a full belly and a day of fun in the sun behind you, enjoy the scenic trip back to St. Kitts. When the boat docks in the harbor, enjoy drop-off back at your hotel.

Beautiful ride with very friendly staff and captain. Great music, lots to drink and great views. Plenty of sun or plenty of shaded area to enjoy the views. Smooth ride not so rocky to the snorkelling spot and beach on Nevis. Lunch was great in a nice shaded area along the beach. I liked the great care in washing of the snorkelling equipment before distributing it so I didn't need to pull out my alcohol wipes, lol.

Wonderful day trip St. Kitts to Nevis!

Jeffrey_Z, Mar 2024

Snorkeling at Shittens Bay was really great, and the crew proved itself skilled, courteous and very professional.

Must do when visiting St. Kitts and Nevis!

Aeli_Y, Mar 2024

Take the Catamaran!!

Diane_B, Feb 2024

What an amazing day on the water! Captain Phil picked us up and then Jay, Papi and Jack were the crew who took care of us along the way. Our first stop was for snorkeling! There were sooo many fish. Following the snorkel stop, the refreshments began. The lunch they served was delicious. They were very accommodating when someone in our group needed a drink for her dietary restrictions. They made a special drink for her and served it all day long... they even took the ingredients to the beach when we stopped for a while. What a crew, what a day! So much fun!

Fun day.

Karen_W, Jan 2024

Fun day. Weather was less than ideal, at least for the first half of the day but our crew was fabulous. They made sure we all had fun. The snorkeling was just okay. Lunch was very good. Would have liked to have seen more of Nevis, and would think that for the price we would have received at least beach chairs at the beach instead of having to shell out more cash for that.

Tons of fun.

Robert_G, Jan 2023

Krista H, Jul 2017

St. Kitts is the island you wish the others were still like. . .underdeveloped and back in time. The catamaran is neither fancy nor large, but this is what makes it so charming and fun! The crew were so friendly and accommodating. The snorkeling, though by reputation not that great, was fairly good and the locals are trying hard to protect the reef. Lunch on Nevis was delicious using a chef from nearby Four Seasons. It was set back in the trees with little wooden huts and tables. It is the authentic experience you will wish you could still get in 5-10 years. Of course the dancing and music on the sail back were so much fun. Bring: Cover-up/t-shirt lots of sun by the end of the day, cream sunscreen, camera. Don't bring: Clothes, spray sunscreen wind, you own snorkels unless you really want to

Robert_B, Nov 2016

This was a fun day. The crew was very helpful and the tour provided an excellent Caribbean lunch, open bar and snorkeling equipment. The swimming stop at Nevis was so much fun. The beach was beautiful and within a short walk to some bars for a local experience. The price was a bit pricey at 135/ person but was a full day of fun, food and drinks!

Steve F, Apr 2014

So you want sun, snorkeling, food and drink, then this is the tour your want. The crew is fantastic. They know how to put on a good show and event. It starts off with an enjoyable van ride that picked us up from the Marriott. On board there are drinks aplenty. The catamaran is beautiful. We had probably 30 people and we did not feel cramped. Many places to sit and lie in the front. The crew was attentive to our needs. The snorkeling equipment was good. Those who needed instruction were given instruction. The place was teaming with fish and fun. The lunch was on the ship while we were anchored for the snorkeling and was not on the beach at Nevis as advertised. It did not matter. The lunch was plentiful and delicious. Chicken, slaw, rolls and rice. The beach at Nevis was fine. We were dropped off at a beach and charged $5 if you want a chair. I really could have done this at the Marriott for free. The beach was nothing special. There was a place to get your hair braided, a park for the kids and a few bars that you can spend money at, but the bar from the catamaran came onto the beach. The trip back to Saint Kitts was so much fun. The crew turned up the music and danced with the visitors. Really a great time. Once again drinks were flowing. Not all alcohol, so if you wanted a non-alcoholic beverage it was available. Lazing in the catamaran was the best. I would highly recommend this tour.

Jaunda K, Feb 2014

This was a really fun tour, it was very peaceful sailing on the catamaran to our snorkeling location. Where we snorkeled was calm and the water was warm. We saw lots of small fish and coral. The lunch was really good and the crew was very nice. Watch out for the rum punch, it was strong, be sure to drink some water. The beach at Nevis was beautiful, if you want a chair you need to bring $5.00. This was a great day!

This was great even though there was...

John G, Oct 2013

This was great even though there was no wind so no sailing just motoring. Small group, only 13 people including my 3. Lennox, the captain, and Fitzroy (the fist mate, were absolutely great. They made the trip wonderful and were always kind, respectful, and resourceful. I would recommend this to anyone..... just an excellent time.
