Return Details

Returns to original departure point
Travel to Palm Beach's pier to board your luxury catamaran. Climb on board and greet your friendly crew, take advantage of the open bar and help yourself to some snacks while the captain navigates the boat towards your first stop. 

Stop at Catalina Bay, a secluded bay with calm, clear water that is ideal for learning to snorkel. Listen to a short safety briefing, don your mask, flippers, and snorkel and jump in. In a depth of approximately 15 feet (five meters) view sea fans and coral, and float through groups of angelfish, blue parrotfish and damselfish. 

Climb back on board your catamaran and cruise towards the Antilla wreck. One of the island's most famous snorkeling spots, this 400-foot (122-meter) German freighter was purposefully scuttled off Aruba's waters in 1940 to avoid capture by the Dutch. 

Dive in and enjoy 30 to 50 feet (nine to 15 meters) of visibility around the ship, which is now home to an array of diverse marine life. See butterflyfish, stingrays, moray eels, and yellowtail snapper. Swim over to the starboard side of the freighter, which is entirely covered with brain coral, star coral, and white-tipped fire coral.

When your snorkeling adventure is over, board the catamaran and enjoy more snacks and drinks as your captain takes you back to Palm Beach.

Fun family time
Tina_D
, Jan 2022
I did not snorkel but according to my family there were not many fish to be seen in this trip. The boat ride was nice. We did not go far at all. Prob a 20 min ride to first snorkel site and the. 5 min to the next. The staff was amazing and a lot of fun. Loud music, drinks and they served empanadas and mini hot dogs in dough. All so yummy. Overall a great day.

Perfect afternoon on the water!

My family and I booked this tour and what a nice way to spend an afternoon! They took us to a shallow snorkel location that was perfect for beginners and then took us to the Antilla shipwreck which had much more fish. There were scuba divers below us too (water was 50 ft. deep) so that was pretty cool to see. Open Bar & snacks were perfect. We had empanadas, pigs in a blanket and fresh fruit, it was just what we needed. Boat was very clean and spacious, and what we loved most was that the group was small. We only had about 15 people on our tour which made it feel more exclusive. If you do something like the Jolly Pirates tour, it’s packed and there’s so many kids so for us (4 adults)we thought it was more enjoyable through RedSail. Awesome day!!

We loved our experience with Red Sail! The staff and sites were so memorable! Snorkeling at the shipwreck was super cool. Advise to eat lunch prior or plan for dinner after since there are only a few snacks on board (especially if you take advantage of the open bar!). Highly recommend!

Amazing experience

Great Activity! The open bar had a variety of options to choose from and the snacks they gave out were delicious. We stopped at two spots to snorkel which gave us the opportunity to see different kinds of fish and the shipwreck. We ended up seeing a sea turtle(which was one of my goals this trip). My boyfriend and I had a good time.
