We had a group of 8 and the crew was fantastic! We did not experience anything but excellent service. The crew was very engaged and kept the trip fun, specific instructions were given regarding lunch and times of departure. Would definitely do again.

The crew was so friendly and welcoming, the food was outstanding, the drinks were even better and they didn’t stop serving! We had a child (7 years old) who had never been snorkeling and the crew did great having what he needed to learn. Will absolutely be back to enjoy! Keep up the amazing work!

Went with a big wedding crowd. My 7 and 2yr olds LOVED the trip!! It was awesome. The crew was excellent (im a sailor in MA). Professional, courteous to everyone, great service and funny as heck. It was a very nice trip my kids and us will never forget! Thank you guys! Will see you again this winter!

Extremely fun, absolutely beautiful catamaran trip with lively helpful crew! Lunch was perfect, music was as well, snorkeling was amazing and all equipment was above average. The island of Icacos is breathtaking.

10 Best Catamaran Trips & Charters In Puerto Rico (2024)

• Catamaran Trips & Charters

One of the best ways to explore Puerto Rico is by catamaran.

Whether you’re taking a trip to the east coast or the west coast, these catamarans have something special planned for their guests. 

I am a Puerto Rico local and when I’m not writing or working, you can find me sailing the coastline.

In this article, we will cover the 10 best catamaran charters & trips in Puerto Rico:

1. Culebra Gateway Day Trip — East Island Excursions

East Island Excursions offers tours to Culebra , Vieques, and the Virgin Islands on a powerful and fast catamaran.

Enjoy stops at snorkeling locations and popular beaches. The excursion includes snacks, lunch, and refreshments.

3. Bareboat Catamaran Charter — Sail Caribe Yacht Charters

Sail Caribe offers catamaran charters to Vieques, Culebra, Cayo Icacos, Palomino Island, and Culebrita.

The difference they offer is a charter where you can sail, and sleep aboard without a captain and crew.  

The service is called “bareboat” and can be very attractive if you’re an experienced sailor.

Charters depart from the Marina Puerto de Rey in Fajardo. Charters are sold by the week. Ground transportation is not included.

The Catamaran Spread Eagle has been providing tours from Fajardo for decades.

The difference factor with Spread Eagle is that they have a larger variety of lunch options.

They also provide you with a brand-new snorkel included in the tour. This is a nice touch, as opposed to a used one.

The Spread Eagle catamarans depart from Villa Marina in Fajardo.

The Katarina Catamaran sails on the west coast of Rincon.

The boat is a 32-foot catamaran that can accommodate 17 guests. They include rum punch, lunch, refreshments, and snorkeling.

The Katarina Catamaran is moored in Rincon. You will need to board a small watercraft from the Balneario of Rincon, which transports you to the bigger boat.

Just coming back from a day at sea with captain Tito, Marcos, Eli and Dantoine and cannot say enough about their hospitality. Not only are they great at what they do from a hospitality and safety standpoint they are just so engaged with the guests including great conversationalists about the island. This was absolutely a beautiful experience with an amazing crew. Thank you Captain! You and your crew were amazing.

We loved Castillo Tours & our crew (Captain Robert & crew). We'll planned day with swimming, snorkeling and relaxation. Would absolutely book with this company again! The downside was that we booked through Viator and requested a vegetarian option for lunch & it was confirmed but they didn't have anything for our vegetarian because Viator never passed the information along. Consider booking through Yelp or directly with Castillo Tours!

Catamaran cruise. What an amazing experience. We sailed out to an island - about a 30 minute ride. Drinks and music the whole way over. Threw down and anchor and then hung out for like 3 hours before sailing back. Sitting at the front of the boat was my favorite. The 3 guys that made up the crew were all awesome. Great sense of humor and terrific customer service. HIGHLY recommend.

View from the front of the boat.

My family of five had a blast on this tour today. We weren't quite sure what to expect even though they are very clear with you before hand, you just never know. You meet at the morning to depart by 9 and then go to the island and swim, tan, float, whatever lol. They have a large float, snorkeling gear, volleyballs, etc. for you to use as well. The water was so beautiful. The drive was smooth. The drinks were delicious and the staff was amazing. I'm terrible with names but I know Anthony, Richard, and Marcos were on the boat and one other gentlemen. They were all amazing. Marcos was so good with my son and was super engaging with the entire family. They all made sure we always had drinks (non alcoholic too) and provided a really good lunch too that consisted of turkey sandwiches, chip bags, packaged cookies, and really delicious pasta salad. Even my picky eater kids ate it all. After the beach float, you get back on the boat around 12:10 and take a short boat ride down the way to Tortuga Bay (there's no turtles lol) to snorkel. There are tons of fish. There's also Pretty strong current so be prepared for that or only send your best swimmers out. All in all I would definitely recommend this trip and this crew and company specifically! Worth the money and a great memory for our family. Oh yeah, there's a bathroom on board too lol. That was important for me .

On my way back from San Juan Puerto Rico let's say I loved every second of my trip especially our wonderful snorkeling tour from Castillo Tours. The crew, the drinks, and the food were outstanding, and we all felt safe and well taken care of on our journey. The restroom facilities were clean, safe, and accessible, and our snorkeling spot was first-class. If you fly Drone (like me) there is a chance at the swimming area to take amazing photos and video and please bring your Go-pro or action camera. A waterproof cell phone case is not going to cut it because of the humidity (the case gets foggy). Once back on the boat the crew kept up the drinks, music, and dance back to port. It was truly amazing, and if I ever go back to Puerto Rico, I will do this again!

This was a really fun snorkeling excursion and my group was so glad we booked with Castillo Tours. The event says to arrive by 715 AM and they depart around 8 AM. I would recommend arriving that early to get your gear, apply lotion and getting a covered seat on the catamaran. The excursion ran for about 5 hours. About 2.5 hours at Icacos Beach and another hour snorkeling. The team on board was really professional. The boat was very clean from the gear, drinking/ seating area and the bathroom. Our drinks were constantly being refilled. Comparing our boat with the other ones on the pier, ours was definitely the cleanest one from the exterior. You get the option of Pina colada and soda with rum drinks. For lunch, we were served chips, pesto pasta, peanut free vegetarian pasta and bagged lunches which included cookies and a turkey sandwich. Overall, we really enjoyed our experience on board. The staff was so accommodating and friendly. We all felt like we got great value considering it was 5 hours for less than $100 worth of entertainment. We definitely got our $s worth with all of the alcohol and food that we consumed.

Our Barefoot boat- clean and updated vs the run down competitors

If you want to take the snorkeling trip of your life go with Castillo tours Amazing trip the guys are on it music all the way to the islands highly recommended Drinks and food can't say any more do it Thank you guys the Rios family

Took the Catamaran, Barefoot, with Captain Robert and his crew Marcos, Eli, Adrian. They were very attentive and quick to refill your drink, lunch was very good, sandwiches with chips and a pasta salad. They were available to answer questions and the scenery was beautiful. Definitely will come back again!

The Barefoot on Icacos

100% recommended! Must do! U will laugh have fun and they are so welcoming. Thank u Marcos and Cpt Roberts

This is a 5 star tour! Trust the reviews. They take you on a nice ride from the marina out to Icacos Island where you can snorkel, paddle board or just swim around. The water is bright blue (clear) and warm! Lunch and drinks are included and they are very good! The whole staff is amazing. They are super friendly and make sure your drink is never empty. Jeremy was awesome and loved his energy! OH, and their music is perfect! I Shazam'd a few songs to add to my own playlists haha. Well worth the price.
