Snorkel & Sightseeing – Tugboat & Spanish Waters

Snorkel & Sightseeing on a Powerboat

If you are looking for a fast way to see some the island’s highlights in 1 day this tour is perfect for you! It is our top selling shore excursion for cruise ship visitors. You get to snorkel with sea turtles, explore the Blue Room cave and enjoy a thrilling experience on the Powerboat. Itinerary might vary due to weather conditions.

The Start of Your Adventure

Upon boarding the boat at one of the meeting points, your adventure begins. Your Powerboat adventure is fast, but most importantly it is safe. Our crew is experienced and will make your day a memorable one. Some highlights of this trip:

Tugboat

The Tugboat area is the #1 snorkeling hotspot in Curaçao. This sunken shipwreck has been under water for 30 years, so a lot of coral has grown on it which attracts fish. It is like swimming in an aquarium, the fish will come very close because they are used to humans near them. Snorkeling here is an experience you will never forget.

Spanish Water area

This area is the home of the rich and famous. We show you the million dollar homes where famous people live, such as baseball players, DJ’s and celebrities. Because these homes are all under strict security, the only way to have a good look at them is from a boat.

Willemstad, Sightseeing

Our crew on board will give you some funny stories and background information as we navigate along the coast. Of course we have to take a picture with the Queen Emma Bridge or Pontoon Bridge, the only floating bridge in the world. If we are lucky the bridge will be open so we can cruise in the harbor, but we cannot guarantee this. Also if there are cruise ships in port we will get a close look at those.

Beach break : Sandals Resort

One beautiful beach we like to show you is at the Sandals Resort. Here you can relax, have a drink, swim a little bit and enjoy the crystal blue water. The resort is the biggest on the island and the pier on Sundays is the place to be for boaters. Think barbecue, rum punch, music and party. Sandals Royal Curacao opened its doors in June 2022 after renovating the previous Santa Barbara Beach & Golf Hotel which closed in June 2020 due to the COVID pandemic. This all-inclusive resort now features 350 rooms, 5 seaside bungalows, food trucks, bars and an infinity pool.
