The Experience

What your day looks like

Set sail for a premier four-hour adventure aboard the Jolly Pirates, an 85-foot teak schooner that offers the most requested sailing excursion in Aruba. As you cruise along the island’s picturesque coastline, you'll visit three of the most vibrant swimming and snorkeling sites, starting with the shallow reef formations of Malmok Beach. The journey continues to the protected cove of Boca Catalina, where crystal-clear visibility allows you to swim alongside schools of tropical fish, including yellow-striped grunts, angelfish, parrotfish, and groupers. Whether you are relaxing under the shaded canopy or soaking up the sun on the ample deck, the friendly crew ensures every moment is filled with island hospitality. The highlight of the voyage is a visit to the SS Antilla, a massive 400-foot WWII German shipwreck resting in just 60 feet of water. Under the expert guidance of the crew, you’ll explore this impressive piece of history, which is now home to an abundant array of coral and sea life. After your underwater exploration, unleash your inner pirate on the ship’s famous rope swing or watch the crew perform acrobatic flips into the turquoise sea. This all-inclusive experience features a full set of snorkeling gear, a tasty BBQ lunch, and an unlimited open bar, making it the perfect high-energy escape for snorkelers of all skill levels.

Such a fun time! The crew went out of their way to make this an enjoyable excursion. We were a group that ranged from 21 to 61 and all enjoyed themselves. Try the swing! The food and drinks were nice and we appreciated the staff waiting on us.
