Highlights
- El Tigre Catamaran Sailing Cruises - After hotel pickup, head to the marina in Bridgetown to board your catamaran, El Tigre, a 60-foot-long (18-meter) and 24-foot-wide (7-meter) schooner that’s big enough to carry 50 passengers but is limited to 36 per cruise to provide more space. The boat offers both shady and uncovered areas so you can choose to sit wherever you’ll be more comfortable.
Pull out of the marina and head along the west coast of Barbados, enjoying the sea breeze on your face and admiring the picturesque coastline. While you sail, just relax, sipping a cup of coffee or a glass of juice, rum punch or beer, and enjoy a slice of coconut bread.

Excellent trip - The staff and snorkeling were excellent. The 2 sites we attended on the shorter trip were well worth the trip. Our bartender was over the top kind and informative with a good sense of humor.

Great Fun! - This tour was great - El Tigre did a good job of finding good snorkel spots and being relaxed about the schedule. They also took us at the end for a tour along the shore which was nice. Staff were super friendly and fun. Would definitely recommend this tour!

A safe and fun boat and snorkeling experience - Pick up was prompt and the driver was informative. The start of the ticket process was a little messy- we had to stand out in the sun for a long time and when I tried to take my child into the lounge area ( which was empty) to be processed, we were told to go back outside. Apart from that it was all perfect. The guys in the boat couldn’t be more helpful. I went swimming with my son who was scared of the sea. He was on my back while I snorkeled and every time I came up, there was a guy there making sure we were ok. They looked after my mum who’s elderly and unsteady on her feet. Attention to detail and safety was clear and was very reassuring. The bar and staff on the boat were really friendly and I would definitely recommend to anyone old or young to go on this tour.

Wonderful!!!! - It was simply beautiful 🤩!!! We were picked up on time and about 30 minutes later we were on the boat. The snorkeling was absolutely amazing. Lunch was delicious and afterwards we were able to swim in the turquoise sea. The crew was very attentive to us and so funny. We had a lot of fun on board. I can really recommend the tour!

Turtle trip - Had a lovely day on this trip, staff were really lovely and worked hard.
I was disappointed to only see 2 distant turtles which is unusual given I've done similar trips before and seen turtles in abundance swimming amongst the people, however it was still a good day.
The food and drink supplied in the price was very nice too.
My only criticism was the music- could have played some reggae tunes that were known (i.e Bob Marley) - would have been great to finish the trip with a good sing song
