Private celebrations

Celebrate on a private boat in Curaçao

Proposals, birthdays, anniversaries, honeymoons, bachelor and bachelorette groups and team days. Here's which private trip fits your occasion and what you can add to it.

Your group, your boat

A proposal. A birthday. The last weekend before the wedding. Every Discover Curaçao trip is private, never shared with strangers. The boat, the captain and the crew are yours for the day.

We do special celebrations of all kinds. Pick a trip below, then tell us the plan on WhatsApp and we'll shape the day around it.

Every trip leaves from Fisherman's Harbor in Caracasbaai, on Spanish Water. Our Scout 355 takes up to 14 guests and books online. For up to 18, 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. You pay for the whole boat, not per seat. Prices here are "from" prices on the Scout 355, plus 9% OB tax at checkout.

Included on every trip

Captain and crew, fuel, soft drinks, water and ice, snorkel masks and fins, towels, a Bluetooth sound system, wifi and a first aid kit. On board there's a toilet, a shaded lounge, an air-conditioned cabin, a freshwater shower and a grill. Bring your playlist and your own reef-safe sunscreen.

Proposals: the Sunset Cruise

For a proposal, we'd start with the Sunset Cruise. Three hours, 16:00 to 19:00, from $850. We cruise Spanish Water past the mansions and mangroves, then follow the coast all the way to Handelskade, the colorful Willemstad waterfront, while the sun sets. That's the high point of the trip, and where we turn back.

Going on to dinner? On request, we drop you off on the way back, at Mood Beach (Mambo), Jan Thiel or Caracasbaai. Want the moment on camera? Add the Content Creator Package.

Honeymoons and anniversaries: Klein Curaçao

Klein Curaçao is an uninhabited island about an hour across open water. A shipwreck on one side, a lighthouse in the middle and a stretch of white sand to call yours for the day. Six hours, 08:00 to 14:00, from $1,599. Or the full day, eight hours, 08:00 to 16:00, from $1,999.

Shorter morning? Cas Abou runs 08:00 to 13:00 up the west coast, from $1,599. Honeymooning at Sandals? It's on the same Spanish Water lagoon as our harbor. See boat trips from Sandals Royal Curaçao.

Birthdays: Snorkel & Chill

Snorkel & Chill is three hours, from $799, departing 08:00, 12:00 or 16:00. We start at the Tugboat, a sunken tug in shallow water, drift over a quiet coral strip, then anchor in Fuik's cove for one last swim. Weak swimmers are fine: we have life vests and noodles, and the crew gets in the water with you. More in our snorkeling guide. Add a celebration cake and it comes plated on board.

Bachelor and bachelorette groups: Fuik Day

Fuik Day runs every Sunday, 14:00 to 18:00, from $1,099. Every Sunday, Fuik Bay fills with boats. Music across the water, people swimming between boats, and a shallow sandbar where everyone ends up waist-deep with a drink. You get the party, plus your own private boat to come back to.

Prefer a full day? Westpunt Hopping is seven hours, 08:00 to 15:00, from $1,999, with four west coast beaches. Harbor parking is free but busy on Sundays, so leave extra time or book hotel pickup.

Small company groups

The Sunset Cruise makes an easy evening out after work, Snorkel & Chill a relaxed afternoon, and Westpunt Hopping a whole day. Need your own route or timing? A custom charter starts at $400 an hour, any route. On a set trip, an extra hour is $300 on the Scout 355 and $400 on the Scout 420.
