A day on your private yacht in Aruba
Your Own Yacht. Your Favorite People. An Unforgettable Day in Aruba.
Leave the crowds behind and cruise Aruba's coastline aboard your own private yacht, with a captain and first mate taking care of you from the moment you step aboard.
From boarding to your last dip
Here's what your day could look like
Swim, explore, stretch out in the sun or settle into the air conditioning. There's time to enjoy it all, together.
1Welcome aboard
A warm welcome from your crew
Your day begins at Bucuti Yacht Club Harbor, directly behind Queen Beatrix International Airport (AUA), the airport you fly into. Meet your crew, get comfortable and enjoy a short safety introduction before you set off along the coast.
Your captain plans the route and stops around the wind and sea conditions that day, and you're welcome to share your wishes before departure.
“The crew, Etienne and Johan, were a huge part of that.”

2In the water
Your first swim in the Caribbean
Once anchored at a suitable stop, take your time getting into the water. Snorkel gear for adults and children is included, and your crew is there to help you get ready.
Prefer to stay dry? Enjoy the view from the yacht while the rest of your group explores.
“Best guides / Best experience / So engaged / Our 3 kids had a blast and so did we”

3On board
Time to make yourself at home
Between stops, pour a cold drink, connect your own music, share the charcuterie platter and find your favorite spot on deck, or cool off indoors. No rushing to keep up with a crowd: just your group, your crew and the coastline unfolding around you.
Want lunch on board? Add a freshly prepared BBQ when you book (cruises of 4 hours or longer).
“Seamless from beginning to end. Great communication as well. … Can be super peaceful, or a party vibe- whichever you're going for can be done. The best part was it being private. Boat was luxurious.”

4The grand finale
One more dip, or a sunset to remember
Depending on your departure time and the conditions, enjoy more time swimming, relaxing or taking in the late-afternoon views before returning to the marina.
Choosing a sunset departure? Watch Aruba's coastline glow as the day winds down.
“The sunset yacht cruise was absolutely perfect! The planning for the proposal was flawless, and everything went smoothly thanks to the amazing crew.”
