Start this Bonaire Sail and Snorkel Excursion by meeting with your guide at your Bonaire cruise ship pier. Then you will climb onto an open-air bus for the 10-minute ride to the harbor. A brief, 3-minute walk takes you to where your mono-hull sailboat, captain, and crew are waiting. The boat is 44 ft (13.5 meters) long and has a toilet for your convenience. The boat has a maximum capacity for 14 guests, so you can have a personable service and enjoy the sailboat comfortably.

Your English speaking Bonaire sail and snorkel shore excursion captain will motor out of the harbor while the friendly crew serves you a drink from the open bar. While you sip your beverage, you will be briefed with the few safety tips needed and then your snorkel guide will tell you what to expect once in the water. Then just sit back and relax as you sail for approximately 45 minutes along the scenic coastline.

Once you have arrived to the reef, you will receive all the necessary equipment to enjoy your snorkeling excursion including a floating vest, if you request one. The crew will show you how to use the equipment and assist you into the warm water. You will be able to access the beautiful Caribbean waters from the ladder that reaches from the deck on down. Please note, all snorkelers need to have basic swimming skills and the ability to use the ladder to climb in and out of the water.

Then be amazed at the diverse world that lives under the water's surface. Your snorkel excursion guide will take you on a one-hour guided snorkel that will accompany you (two guides if 8 or more guests). They will be sure to point out anything of interest so you don't miss a thing. The coral reefs play habitat to astonishing marine life as well as both hard and soft corals. With over 340 fish species be sure to pack an underwater camera as you never know what you may see! The Marine Park is a nesting ground for Hawksbill and Loggerhead sea turtles, so prepare for a surprise! Your knowledgeable guide will be with you at all times pointing out sights and marine life. You are, of course, able to get back on board at any time you wish.

Once your snorkel time is completed you can enjoy some drinks and tasty snacks back on the sailboat. Then enjoy the sail back to the harbor where you will be returned via to your Bonaire cruise ship pier terminal.

Open bar offers sodas, fruit punch, beer, white wine, rose wine, and rum punch. Snacks include brie cheese, tuna salad, fresh fruit and something for your sweet tooth.

The excursion was absolutely everything we hoped it would be. We took our dad who enjoys fishing and shrimping off the coast of Alabama all winter every year yet had never experienced a sail boat. He loved this experience with the great crew and fun family from Maine that joined us. It was our girls first snorkel experience and they agreed it was absolutely perfect. There isn't anything we would have rather done on Bonaire!!! Thank you so much for the crew's hard work at making everything run so smoothly.

Recently visited the port while we cruise on a Royal Caribbean cruise. This was the perfect day of the whole cruise journey. The guide and all the staff were very friendly and professional. The boat was clean and they provide us with the snorkel gear. We had open bar available after the snorkeling as well as snacks. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the port.

One of the more relaxing excursions we’ve taken this year. The crew were incredibly nice and very helpful to those who hadn’t experienced snorkeling. By the way the snorkeling was fantastic including all the turtles. Next time we’re in Bonaire will do it again.

This was a fantastic excursion that I highly recommend. We were picked up at the dock and taken to the marina where we boarded a sailboat to the snorkel area. The crew was great and very accommodating. Plenty of Rum Punch and Beer for the adults and drinks for the kids. They also provided finger foods for snacks which were made by the captain himself. (He was a chef in a former life. :) ) They have plenty of gear on the sailboat for snorkeling and even swim flotations and noodles for the kids (or adults) if you wanted them. Our 7 yr old and 3 yr old were in the water with them and got to see all of the fish. Overall the trip was great for all ages and the sailboat was very nice as well.

Not sure if it was our lucky day but we had the boat all to ourselves (8 adults, 2 children) and we had a blast! Mari was really sweet and such a great swimmer, made us feel really comfortable in the water. We had open bar, snacks, snorkel gear, everything we needed to enjoy 3 hour sailing fun!

Took this excursion on Feb 6th. Loved the crew! The boat was fun and relaxed. They fed us cookies, sandwiches, and drinks!! The only reason I dropped one star was because the snorkeling area wasn't as good as others I have been to. They put us in fairly deep water, so we couldn't see fish as close up as I would like, but I think the reason for this was that it is a marine preserve and they didn't want you touching the coral. Despite this, the fish we did see were beautiful! Had such a good time!!!! Also, the snorkeling equipment was top notch! The crew defogged the masks before going in and they stayed crystal clear.

My friends and I loved this tour, it was just what we were looking for, something away from cruise crowds and a place where we could just relax and enjoyed the beautiful ocean. Some of us snorkeled and some decided to stay on the boat, our guide jumped off and snorkeled with us, so kind of him... The snacks were very tasty and the drinks refreshing, especially after snorkeling. I just wish we could have had more time sailing, I still can't get how the shades of blue are formed in the water, just amazing.
