Private boat trips for Marriott and Hilton guests on Piscadera Bay
Staying at Curaçao Marriott Beach Resort or Hilton Curaçao? Our private boats leave from Fisherman's Harbor, about 30 minutes away by road, and hotel pickup in a premium SUV takes care of the drive there and back.

Your own boat, about 30 minutes from your hotel
Every trip leaves from Fisherman's Harbor, Caracasbaai 1, on Spanish Water. Locals also call it Vissershaven. From Piscadera Bay the drive takes about 30 minutes, a little longer at rush hour. We send the exact meeting point before your trip, by email and WhatsApp. Our Fisherman's Harbor guide has more on the harbor. Staying closer to town? See our guide to boat trips from Otrobanda.
Every trip is private. The boat, the captain and the crew are for your group only, never shared with strangers. Our Scout 355 takes up to 14 guests and books online. For up to 18 guests, the Scout 420 books online for trips from November 15, 2026, at a boat price 25% above the Scout 355. For earlier dates, ask us on WhatsApp.
Hotel pickup in a premium SUV
Add hotel pickup when you book and tell us your hotel. A premium SUV drives you to the harbor and brings you back to your hotel after the trip. It costs $150 per SUV, and each SUV takes up to 4 guests. A group of 5 to 8 needs two SUVs. Pickup works from anywhere on the island.
For our 08:00 trips, boarding is at 07:45 and pickup is around 07:00. You get your exact pickup time by WhatsApp and in your booking confirmation.
Driving yourself? Parking at the harbor is free. No car yet? You can rent one from Rent Car Curaçao Deals. It gets busy on Sundays, so allow a little extra time for Fuik Day. If you don't book pickup, you arrange your own way to the harbor and back.
Which trips fit a Piscadera Bay stay
Three hours, most of your day still free
- Sunset Cruise. 3 hours, 16:00 to 19:00, from $850. We run along the coast all the way to Handelskade, the colorful Willemstad waterfront, and turn back there. That's the high point of the evening. You stay on board, and the boat returns to the harbor. On request we can drop you off on the way back at Mood Beach (Mambo), Jan Thiel or Caracasbaai.
- Snorkel & Chill. 3 hours, departs 08:00, 12:00 or 16:00, from $799. Snorkel the Tugboat wreck, then slow down at anchor. Fine for weak swimmers: life vests and noodles on board, and the crew is in the water with you.
- Snorkel & Coastline. 3 hours, departs 08:30 or 12:30, from $799.
Half day or longer
- Klein Curaçao. 6 hours, 08:00 to 14:00, from $1,599, or the full day, 08:00 to 16:00, from $1,999. About an hour each way across open water to an uninhabited island with a lighthouse, a shipwreck and white sand.
- Cas Abou. 5 hours, 08:00 to 13:00, from $1,599. Back by 13:00, with the afternoon free.

How to choose
Want your morning at the resort? Pick the Sunset Cruise, Fuik Day or the 12:00 or 16:00 Snorkel & Chill.
Traveling with young children? Snorkel & Chill is the easiest trip for kids, with sheltered water and short hops between stops.
Prone to seasickness? Cas Abou and Westpunt Hopping stay inshore on the sheltered side of the island. The Klein Curaçao crossing is open water. We carry a seasickness kit on board either way.
Celebrating something? We host proposals, birthdays, anniversaries, honeymoons and group trips. See our private celebrations page.
What's on board
Every trip includes the captain and crew, fuel, soft drinks, water and ice, snorkel masks and fins, towels, a Bluetooth sound system, wifi, a first aid kit, child and infant life jackets and a seasickness kit. The boat has a toilet, a shaded lounge, an air-conditioned cabin, a freshwater shower and a grill. Bring your own reef-safe sunscreen.
Choose a food and drink package when you book. With Basic, you're welcome to bring your own food and drinks. Grilling your own food on board isn't allowed. Standard and Luxury add food and an open bar, priced per guest and shown when you book.
Add-ons include paddleboards, sea scooters and our own jet skis ($450 each, up to 2). Our Content Creator Package ($300) brings one of our three in-house creators on board for photos and video, drone shots included. With a private chef ($750), the chef cooks right there at a table at the front of the boat, and you cook along at a shared grill. Book the chef at least 3 days ahead and ask us on WhatsApp which trips it suits.
Prices, booking and weather
Prices are for the whole boat, not per seat. The "from" price covers up to 4 guests and steps up with your group size. Curaçao's 9% OB tax is added at checkout. Tips are not included and are up to you.
A 50% deposit holds your date, and the balance is due 48 hours before departure. Trips less than a week away are paid in full. Cancel for any reason up to 7 days before your trip for a full refund; less than 7 days before, there is no refund (cancellation policy). Weather is the captain's call on the morning. If we cancel, you choose a new date or a full refund, never a voucher. The full rules are in our terms, and our FAQ answers the rest.
