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.

Testimonials.

We had a great time on the Sea Reina private charter! Our family of four adults and two kids-the boat was super spacious. Captain Scott brought us to 2 killer snorkeling areas, and then showed us all the surf breaks on the north shore of Rincon. His wife even made us lunch, which was an extra bonus.🤙 highly recommend this charter!

— Amanda K.

We had an amazing time sailing around the coast and watching the sunset. Capt. Brian and Shane were a fantastic crew. The drinks were fabulous. DJ Brian brought his A Game with the playlist and whale facts. Shane’s snacks and service were top notch. The views were amazing. We can’t wait to come back next year and do it again! Thanks for a fabulous night!

Incredible experience! The crew is great and the food is fantastic. Charted complete catamaran for my daughter’s 16th birthday. She and her guests loved it. Rincón’s coast and beaches are beautiful. Geraldine was so helpful with the details and her crew is outstanding. 100% recommended.

A Superb Adventure in Fajardo, PR

"Great value! Beautiful day on the ocean with 2 stops - the first one more beach-oriented and a chance to practice snorkeling, the second at Tortuga Reef for in-depth snorkeling. The crew were wonderful and the lunch provided exceeded expectations - all fresh, and freshly-prepared sandwich fixings and salads. Even fresh fruit & veg. The free unlimited drinks are not very strong, but for $2, they'll add a shot of rum. Fins, masks and snorkels are provided, which simplifies logistics. We had a great time."

"We had a perfect day for snorkeling and a crew made the entire trip fun and exciting. Great lunch spread and delicious drink selection. Perfect trip for families of all ages. We would recommend the Spread Eagle II for anyone snorkeling out of Fajardo"

"At first I thought there were too many people on the boat but it worked out fine. We had a nice day. The small island where we first stopped had several other boats there. It would have been nice to have landed at a more private place. Same for the spot where we snorkeled. The water was beautiful. We saw some fish, Be sure to wear sun screen!"

"We had a fun day with the friendly and professional crew. Even though the snorkeling visibility was not great, the sailing was fun, the day was beautiful and the whole family enjoyed it. This is definitely a great idea for an outing with anyone from kids to grandparents. People who don't want to snorkel can beachcomb, swim, or just enjoy piña coladas on the catamaran. :)"

We booked the Snorkel/BBQ/Sunset Sail on the” Zatara” directly with East Island Excursions due to a recommendation made by the owner of the house we were renting. Our party consisted of my wife and I, three 14 year old girls, and our 5 year old son. Everyone had a great time! The “Zatara”was well equipped and the maximum booking of 19 passengers was just right for the size of the boat. Everyone had space to relax on deck during the sailing portions of the trip. We sailed to an off-shore island that offered a lovely reef that was perfect for snorkeling. The crew was knowledgeable and attentive to our wants/needs. The open bar was well stocked, and the rum punch was tasty and refreshing.

Excellent Day Trip!

We enjoyed a day on the water on a catamaran with Captain Wilo and crew! What a wonderful crew. We never had to want for anything and they kept the liquid refreshments coming! We have a great BBQ lunch while at an island for some swimming and snorkeling. We cannot say enough good things about this day trip and would do it again on our next visit!

Great snorkeling trip!

We thoroughly enjoyed the trip. We had a sunset cruise and the views were amazing. The staff was extremely attentive and friendly. Very very helpful. Snorkeling was great! BBQ on the boat was amazing and there was an open bar! Icacos was beautiful and we had a great time on the beach and could quickly go to the boat for drinks and refreshments. If you get motion sick please take something!! Overall was an amazing experience and would definitely do it again!! Maria was constantly checking to make sure we didn’t need anything, she was very sweet. They also made it fun for the kids on board. Highly recommend!!

Luxury Catamaran to Icacos

This excursion is well worth it. We had a great time on the Zatara, with an exceptional crew who delivered the best service, and took time to get to know us. This was aboard a 19 passenger catamaran that provided a more intimate experience than some of the larger boats. We had a great time snorkeling, then enjoyed time at the beach and a delicious BBQ lunch. Would definitely do it again! Thank you, East Island Excursions, for a great day on the sea!

Highlight of our trip

Did the snorkeling trip yesterday and couldn’t have been more pleased. The crew was awesome. The deluxe trip aboard the Zatara was definitely worth it.

Simply incredible! Highly recommend! Carlos, Mariel and crew were fantastic, engaging, helpful, and had a great sense of humor. The food and drinks and music were excellent. Sailing and seeing a dolphin (who rode our bow for a bit) on the way back from an amazing snorkeling trip were icing on the cake.

19 person Catamaran Trip

I booked the snorkeling trip on the Zatara to Icacos island after I called up their office and explained to them that it would be my first snorkeling trip ever. They recommended Icacos island excursion. Sure enough, Captain Milo and his crew were so attentive and helpful… Hamburgers and hot dog, chicken was grilled and served for lunch. Fresh fruits and drinks flowed freely. The beach on Icacos island was shallow and water was very clear. I could see a lot of fishes and a few corals. My son captured some good videos on his Go Pro. Would highly recommend this excursion !!

Awesome snorkeling excursion on the Zatara

Hands down one of the best excursions we had while in PR! The crew was amazing. Very knowledgeable, charismatic, and had great customer service. Alex and Carlos had everyone laughing and ensuring we all had a good time. The island was beautiful and so was the snorkeling. A+

Sailing and Snorkeling

🏆 OUR TOP PICK FOR A CATAMARAN DAY TRIP IN PUERTO RICO – Icacos Deserted Island Catamaran & Picnic Cruise

What to look for in a Catamaran Trip?

There are several things you need to check before finding your perfect catamaran trip. What is “perfect” for me, may be different than what is “perfect” for you.

• Are you feeling social? Check to see if the tour is private (just your party) or a small group made up of different parties.
• What is your budget? When shopping for catamaran tours, be sure and check the price. Specifically, check to see if the price is total, or per person. Enter the number of people you want to bring and see what the price is.
• How much time do you have? Are you in Puerto Rico for 4 days ? Do you have only a few hours as a cruise stop? Make sure the tour you are looking at correlates with the time you have allotted.
• Where are you? Check the details of the tour to see if the departure point is near where you will be staying.
• What kind of vibe do you want? Are you looking for a party boat? A luxurious or romantic dinner? Do you want to swim? Check the details to make sure there are no unwelcome surprises on the day of your catamaran trip.
• Read the reviews. I always read reviews before making a decision. Keep in mind, you can’t please everyone, so there will usually be at least one negative review for the tour operators. Don’t let one review discourage you, but instead, read through a few reviews and notice any patterns. If one subject comes up consistently, it is likely accurate.

What to pack on a Catamaran Day Trip in Puerto Rico

Now that you have decided which catamaran trip to book, you’ll need to know what to bring with you! Never fear, I’ve got you covered.

🤿 MASK AND SNORKEL

Most of these tours include snorkeling equipment, and that is totally fine to use theirs if you wish. However, if you want to bring your own for sanitary reasons, or to ensure they fit the way you like, you can do that too!

This mask and snorkel set is very popular, my kids love this one. I prefer this mask and snorkel combo with a GoPro attachment. I love how it frees up both hands while snorkeling!

📱 Waterproof Phone Holder

Even though a lot of cell phones are water resistant, salt water can damage them. If you are wanting to take photos from the catamaran or while snorkeling get one of these inexpensive phone holders .

➡️ Shop Waterproof Phone Holders Now

📸 Waterproof Camera

A cell phone can take pretty good photos, but if you want to snorkel and get incredible videos of tropical fish, bring a GoPro ! My GoPro is a must on all snorkeling trips! I even took it with me to swim with sharks in the Bahamas.

➡️ Check out GoPros Here

🏝 Fast Drying Towel

One of the best things to bring on your catamaran trip is a lightweight and fast drying towel . These don’t take up much room in your bag and will be a great item to have for the ride back to land.

➡️ Purchase a Light Weight Fast Drying Towel

☀️ Reef Safe Sunscreen

If you are heading anywhere in the Caribbean you definitely need sunscreen. Be sure to only wear reef-safe sunscreen to help protect the reefs and marine life. I love this combo because it comes with an after-sun gel too! Don’t forget chapstick with SPF protection!

➡️ Buy Reef Safe Sunscreen and Chapstick Here

👙Rash Guard or SwimSuit

Of course, you will need a swimsuit if you planning on spending the day on the water. Another good thing to think about is purchasing a rash guard . This can be in place of your swim suit, or over the top. Rash guards are lightweight, dry quickly, and help protect you from sunburn. This limits the amount of sunscreen you need to put on as well!

➡️ Purchase a Rashguard for Men or Women by Clicking Here

🧢 Hat

Grab a hat to help keep the sun off your face, but also to control your hair after being in the water and wind! This one is super cute, or this one may be more your style.

➡️ Check this hat out , or this one instead

🎒Beach Bag

Grab a cute beach bag to carry all of your things on to the catamaran and beach! I like to bring a pretty large bag , and that way I can keep everything in it and have room for a few souvenirs too!

➡️ Click Here to Buy a Beach Bag

🏖 Floaties

Some tours provide floats or tubes to get in the water with, but you cant guarantee they will have enough for everyone or they will be one you like. I know a float isn’t something most people get excited about but let me tell you how OBSESSED I am with these floaties !

They pack up so small, weigh nothing, are easy to inflate, and are so comfortable in the water. They are a must for me when making my Caribbean packing list !

➡️ Get Your Float Here

Sailing on a catamaran in puerto rico.

Puerto Rico is one of the locations in the Caribbean that makes you dream. Colourful houses, stunning beaches, turquoise waters and delicious food are the perfect mix for a wonderful sailing vacation in Puerto Rico on a catamaran charter . Discover the best this part of the Caribbean has to offer and see what the locals enjoy about their country most.

The pros of renting a catamaran in Puerto Rico

One of the advantages of renting a catamaran in Puerto Rico is that catamarans are equipped with a sail and an engine, meaning that they are well-prepared for all kinds of weather and wind conditions. You can use the sail when the wind picks up or sail with the engine should the wind suddenly stop.

Another advantage of chartering a catamaran in Puerto Rico is the fact that they have a shallow draft. This makes them the perfect boats to explore the Puerto Rican coast with all its secluded bays, beaches and coves. The west area of the island is considered one of the most beautiful parts of Puerto Rico and catamarans are the perfect boats to explore this area.

If you want to rent a catamaran in Puerto Rico, you will be very happy to know that catamarans are generally quite spacious, making you feel less like sleeping in a tiny cabin on a boat, but more like in a hotelroom on water.

The cons of renting a catamaran in Puerto Rico

One of the downsides of renting a catamaran in Puerto Rico can be their size. While it might seem amazing to sleep in a room with a lot of space while sailing around the Caribbean, it can come with some difficulties. Space in the marinas is limited and finding a space for mooring with a catamaran can be quite difficult. If you are lucky enough to find a spot for mooring, your enthusiasm might not last for long. Often you have to pay extra for extra space as catamarans can take up more space than other types of boats.

The most popular catamarans to rent in Puerto Rico

One of the most popular catamarans to rent in Puerto Rico is Catamaran Lagoon 420 which is available to rent in Fajardo. Up to eight people fit on board the boat and it can be chartered with or without a captain. The stunning interior brings the sun from outside inside the catamaran.

Another popular catamaran rental in Puerto Rico is Catamaran Lagoon 380 which is also available to rent in Fajardo. A maximum of six people can fit on board the boat and the catamaran charter comes with a professional captain who is going to navigate you safely through the Caribbean waters.

Charter a private luxury catamaran in Puerto Rico

Puerto Rico is also known as a place where you can enjoy luxury sailing vacations on a private catamaran. Charter a luxury catamaran in Puerto Rico to enjoy your boat holiday with plenty of amazing amenities. A beautiful luxury catamaran that is not just going to charm you with its beautiful exterior, but also with its modern and luxurious interior is Catamaran Lagoon 46 . There is plenty of space on the sundeck to work on your tan!

How many people can go on a catamaran in Puerto Rico?

Depending on the size of the boat, as well as the amount of beds and bathrooms on board, catamarans can host six or more people. However, they are not necessarily meant for bigger groups of people as their cabin sizes tend to be bigger than others, making them feel more like a hotel room on water rather than a cabin on a boat.

When is the best time to sail on a catamaran in Puerto Rico?

Puerto Rico and the Caribbean are known to be blessed with tropical climates. This means that it’s warm almost all year round with temperatures averaging at around 26 degrees. However, the best time for a sailing adventure on a catamaran in Puerto Rico is between January and April. Also, keep in mind that the hurricane season in late summer is definitely not a good time to take a catamaran rental out at sea. In fact, it can be life threatening.

If you stay around the island, you don’t have to worry about rough weather - only if you want to sail out into the open ocean. Discover some of the most spectacular natural wonders the Caribbean has to offer and enjoy the fantastic weather!

How much does it cost to rent a catamaran in Puerto Rico?

Puerto Rico is not the most affordable place when it comes to renting a catamaran. In fact, it will cost an average price of 29.606 EUR for a week to charter a catamaran in Puerto Rico . It is definitely an exclusive destination in the Caribbean for anyone who is willing to spend that extra money.

What kind of boat licence do I need when renting a catamaran in Puerto Rico?

One of the best things about chartering a catamaran in Puerto Rico is the fact that you don’t need a boat licence to do so. At least if you are not a resident of the island. Just ensure that you know how to operate a catamaran and that the charter gives you all the necessary and important information before you head out at sea.

If you don’t want to drive the catamaran yourself, you can always hire a skipper or captain in addition to your bareboat charter. This gives you plenty of time to relax and enjoy the view - far away from your daily struggles.

The best routes for catamarans in Puerto Rico

One of the most scenic sailing routes on a catamaran in Puerto Rico is starting at Puerto del Rey, a big marina where many sailing holidays start in Puerto Rico. Your first stop is Isla Palominos , an island filled with lush green trees and surrounded by turquoise waters. You will be sure that you have arrived in paradise. Palominos is mainly known for its stunning white sandy beaches. Your next stop is Culebra , an island that is particularly popular among snorkellers. Discover the underwater world by diving into the turquoise waters. If you’re lucky you will spot some turtles here. Tamarindo Beach on Culebra is the perfect spot to do that! Bahia del Almodovar is the next stop on your sailing adventure, a stunning bay with interesting landscapes and turquoise waters. Make sure to get up in time to watch a magical sunrise. The island of Vieques is already waiting for you. With all the plam trees and the magical colour of the water it looks like paradise. Be sure to discover the town Esperanza on the island, a town that is known for its pretty wooden houses. Get a bite to eat before heading out at sea again. La Chiva Beach, or the Blue Beach due its impressive colour, is a must see when visiting Puerto Rico on a catamaran. Sailing with a catamaran gives you the advantage of being able to sail and anchor super close to the shore, meaning that you can explore everything from up close rather than from a distance. Another beach that has a nickname related to a colour is Puntas Arenas , also known as the Green Beach . It got its nickname from its wonderful green surroundings. Once you’ve swam here it’s time to go back to Puerto del Rey to bring your sailing adventure on a catamaran in Puerto Rico to a close.

The Best Beaches in Puerto Rico for Your Next Vacay

P uerto Rico is a land of diverse geography and is considered a tropical paradise. Puerto Rico has a big stretch of coastline. The Caribbean island is well known for its white sand beaches, tropical weather and clear waters. Travelers can explore secluded coves or the most popular party beaches Puerto Rico has to offer. Some of the best beach activities for tourists include snorkeling, diving, surfing and paddle boarding. Visitors that just want to sit back, relax and sunbathe are also invited to simply sip on a fresh piña colada and watch the waves pass by. 

Puerto Rico has year round tropical weather. This means that the best time of year to visit depends slightly on the changes in weather but factors in other things. Travelers should aim to travel to Puerto Rico during the dry season, so they do not have to deal with heavy rainfall during their beach vacation. Winter, which is technically around December to March, is the most ideal time for weather. During these months visitors can expect (relatively) low temperatures of about 70 to 80 degrees. Within that season, April and May are considered optimal months for beach stays since the temperatures are mild and tourist spots are less crowded. 

To visit during the least busy season, travelers should aim for late summer and late fall. This is also the time when travel to Puerto Rico is the least expensive (accommodations, flights, food and excursions). These seasons have a disadvantage though, since this is hurricane season. Travelers may chance being caught in less than ideal weather conditions and putting themselves in unsafe conditions . 

There are many beach options for travelers wanting to bask in the sun in Puerto Rico. Travelers wanting to enjoy a beach vacation in PR should assess their options based on the type of trip they’d like to have. So, we have taken a look at the best beaches in Puerto Rico and provided all the details travelers need to know. 

Best Beaches Overall

For travelers that enjoy the communal nature of public beaches, there are plenty of options in Puerto Rico. The United States territory has over 200 beaches on the almost 300 mile span of coastline. These are the best beaches for tourist access.

Rincón 

With over eight miles of coastline, Rincón beaches are readily available to tourists. These beaches are usually smaller and have clear blue waters. They are well known for being less developed and incredibly eye-catching. These pristine beaches have plenty to offer travelers. Some of the most popular activities at the many Rincón Beaches include snorkeling, power diving, sea shell collecting, surfing, kayaking, paddle boarding and swimming. Depending on the season and beach, some places may not be as safe for swimming. But overall, the Rincón Public Beach is a pretty good option. 

Cabo Rojo is a municipality in Puerto Rico which has some of the best beaches. These beaches are located near a coastal town on the southwestern side of the island, so they are easily accessible. There are historic landmarks and unique landscapes in Cabo Rojo, so tourists will have plenty to do. The beaches of Cabo Rojo have clear waters, pink salt flats and stunning rock formations on the coast. Playa Buyé, Playa Sucia (or La Playuela) and Boquerón Beach are among some of the most popular beaches in the area. 

Luquillo Beach is very popular due to its amenities and activities. It is incredibly accessible since it is named after a nearby town, which reflects in the occasional crowds. On weekends and in the summer travelers will notice the crowds, especially because this beach is beloved by locals and tourists alike. For access to the beach, travelers simply have to pay the entrance fee that costs around $4. For access to the showers and bathroom facilities, travelers will need to pay a small additional fee. The marine life at Luquillo Beach is unmatched. There are plenty of sea creatures to appreciate while sprawled out on this beach including the most prominent visitors, Leatherback and Hawksbill Sea Turtles. For beach adventurers, Luquillo Beach is a dream destination. Travelers that like a little adrenaline rush can enjoy snorkeling, paddle boarding, kitesurfing, kayaking and swimming on the beach.

Best Remote Beaches in Puerto Rico

These stunning beaches are the most intimate stretches along the coast. At these beaches, seclusion meets serenity. The crystal clear waters and warm white sands make these Puerto Rican beaches some of the most peaceful places for travelers to visit. 

Culebrita 

Playa Tortuga is a remote and uninhabited island of Culebrita. This archipelago of islands in the Caribbean Sea is located off the coast of Culebra, a larger island on the coast. Travelers can get there via seaplane or boat ride, but water taxis are much more common. After a short boat ride (which costs about $65 per person for a round trip including a hammock and snorkeling gear) from mainland Puerto Rico, travelers can enjoy this protected national wildlife refuge. The long crescent of Playa Tortuga is a common nesting ground for Green Sea Turtles and is even nicknamed Turtle Beach. It is also home to Faro Culebrita, the oldest operating lighthouse in the Caribbean which was built by the Spanish crown in 1886. This landmark is off limits for tourists but offers great photo opportunities. Since Culebrita is uninhabited, travelers should enjoy the serene beach during their day trip. 

Icacos 

This beach is on a tiny uninhabited island called Cayo Icacos off the coast of Fajardo but can also be easily reached from San Juan . This beach can only be reached by boat, so the majority of travelers opt to book catamaran day trips or water taxis. Something to note about this destination is that there is less shade available. There are not many palm trees, so the beach is best for swimming, snorkeling or sunbathing. There is an abandoned pier with plenty of marine life thriving there for snorkeling. This beach has some of the clearest waters off the east coast of Puerto Rico. Icacos Beach is best known for its snorkeling and diving opportunities but there are other leisurely beach activities. Most other travelers enjoy the beach for partying, listening to music and relaxing. 

Culebra 

Playa Punta Soldado is a secluded spot on the island of Culebra. It is an ideal option for travelers that want to relax and enjoy the ocean views. With its very pebbly beach, coral reefs and slightly rocky coast, it is not the best option for carefree swimming. It is best for travelers to wear swim shoes to protect themselves. There are no facilities or food options on this beach, so travelers should be prepared to pack everything they need for this day trip. Many travelers simply enjoy the solitude of the crystal clear waters at Punta Soldado, snorkel or dive.
