Reggae Catamaran and Snorkeling Open Bar Cruise Montego Bay

1.Reggae Catamaran and Snorkeling Open Bar Cruise Montego Bay

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 453 reviews · from $125Our pick

Cruise Jamaica’s north coast from Montego Bay, snorkel near Doctor’s Cave Beach, then enjoy reggae, a DJ, Jamaican-style snacks, and an open bar. Hotel pickup is offered, but this is a lively party boat rather than a quiet sightseeing cruise. Bring sunscreen, a towel, and a change of clothes.

“The cruise is full of fun. The driver who picked us up from the hotel is extremely patient and friendly. There are a few guests who came out of their hotel room late, he spent extra time waiting for them and make sure everyone get on the cruise.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 99 reviews · from $125

Set sail from Montego Bay around 3 pm for roughly three hours of reggae, dancing, an open bar, light snacks, and sunset views along Jamaica’s north coast. Select hotels offer round-trip pickup. This adults-only cruise can feel relaxed or turn into a lively party, depending on the crowd and weather.

“First of all Viator was not my booking method of preference; however, my clients were unable to book directly through Island Routes so here we are. All 19 booked but not all 19 had Viator accounts, when directed to set up an account to finish their booking they were redirected to Viator's mobile account and therefore removed from my Travel Agent Link so out of 19 bookings my agency was only credited with 10 and they refuse to acknowledge the other 9 even though I have given them all names, booking numbers and we were all picked up from the same location at the same time on the same date…”

“This was a fantastic experience and a must do whilst in Jamaica. The transportation process was smooth and our driver Cory was great. We boarded the catamaran quickly and they took us to a great spot for snorkelling - lots of coral and fish and the water was so blue. On the way to the snorkelling site we were provided with endless drinks and a nice buffet which had chicken and fruit etc. Once we finished the snorkelling we were taken to the famous Margaritaville, we enjoyed it here and they had great frozen margaritas. The highlight was definitely the way back, the DJ was FANTASTIC, there was lots of…”

“Catamaran was canceled after we left the hotel so we had no choice but to make the best of it and go to Margaritaville. Very prompt on getting a refund. But we were disappointed that we didn’t get to go on the catamaran to see the sunset at Rick’s. Our drivers were very nice and respectful.”

Cruise Jamaica’s north coast on a family-friendly catamaran with hotel pickup, onboard drinks, fruit, pastries, appetizers, reggae music, and a Marine Park snorkeling stop. You’ll also visit Margaritaville for optional water activities, though that stop can vary by schedule.

“I enjoyed this trip. The boat was big (although it held 122 and we only had 22 on the day) and clean. The snorkeling was amazing and the boat had a slide off the back which is great for kids. Staff were great, really friendly. The reason for the Average rating instead of Good is that the booking says you stop at Margaritaville with water trampolines which didn't happen, not sure why”
