Spend a full day aboard a spacious catamaran from St. Kitts: guided snorkeling at shallow reefs, lunch on board or on Nevis, and an open bar with live music on the return. Ideal for first-time snorkelers and seasoned sea-goers alike.

The day begins at Port Zante as the catamaran eases away from the pier and the island contracts behind you into a low green ridge. Sunlight trims the turquoise; the boat’s shaded deck becomes a comfortable basecamp where shoes are stowed and the crew hands out snorkel gear. The boat threads the coastline, halting at a reef-rich bay for roughly 45 minutes — a quick plunge into clear water where parrotfish and snapper weave through coral gardens and sea turtles surface like polite ghosts.
