Top Barbados Lunch Cruises

Amazing day today , crew are fantastic and look after you very well . Food and drinks are the best we have had . My wife is unsure on boats but crew went out of their way to assist and reassure . A premium operator worth every penny.

The whole experience was amazing. Booked for brother’s birthday and crew did not disappoint. Food was brilliant, crew attentive and rum punch was flowing. Highly recommend for great day out.

What an incredible experience with Calabaza Sailing Charters! ❤️ The staff were amazing, so warm, friendly, and attentive. The boat was beautiful, the food was absolutely delicious, and the entire day felt truly special. We had such a fantastic time and made wonderful memories. Highly recommend! You won’t want the day to end!P.S. The Calabaza crew made it possible for members of my family to step outside their comfort zones and explore the open sea through snorkeling—something they had never experienced before. Seeing their excitement and sense of adventure made the day even more special!

This is my second time sailing with Graham and his crew!!! Never disappoints, good food and good drinks and great service!

What a fantastic excursion. Though we did not snorkel, we did swim in the crystal blue waters. We stopped at 2 spots to snorkel then cruised up the island to another beach to swim and eat lunch. The food served by the staff was top notch and the drinks were free flowing. The staff was very very accommodating and they were quick to refill empty glasses. Boat was extremely comfortable with inside and outside seating. Staff, food and drink outstanding. One of the best cruise excursions we have ever been on.

10/10 love! We have booked this multiple times and loved the experience. The crew is always nice, food delicious, drinks wonderful, and no issues with transportation. I would recommend for families, couples, and friends!We did this a couple of years ago and was delayed in my review!

I did this catamaran tour in July with my wife and teenage son. Wow, this was such a great experience. The boat is great - easily enough room for everyone, and a lot of room under shade, since they keep it to a low number of guests. The boat crew knew where to go for great snorkeling. The crew was really helpful for those of us new to snorkeling, it was a great experience for my family. We did see some turtles and fish. The breakfast was good, lunch was great, the rum punch was fantastic (for my wife and I, not for my son!). Riding along the coast was so relaxing.I really liked the length of this tour - this was the best catamaran tour I've done. Nothing but good things to say.

Can’t say enough good things about the trip and crew. Food and drinks were excellent and unlimited. Everyone on the crew was extremely friendly and offered the highest quality of service. We had a blast.

We had a great time on this tour - saw some turtles at the first stop and shipwrecks on the second one (tons of beautiful fish around the sunken ships!). This tour had perfect vibes, great, and extremely friendly crew, some drinks and delicious lunch, what more one can ask? Book it, you won’t be disappointed!

We were on the Stiletto IV - small group of only 9 so a great personal experience. Crew were great fun and food was lovely- drinks flowed all day and we had some great snorkelling stops

We started out with a bit of a delay/ hiccup as we were initially put on the bigger boat that had been reserved by a private party. Once things were straighten out and we were moved to the smaller boat, we were on our way and in the good hands of Danny and Tyrese. We stopped at a couple of spots to snorkel, and had a delicious lunch on turquoise blue waters. Drinks and music flowed freely, and a good time was had by all! Would recommend if you're looking for a lively excursion on a boat.

Although you will want to, restrain yourself from asking for a 3rd (!) serving of the banana bread. ALL the food was amazing!! It was nonstop snacks (and drinks if you like), to enjoy alongside the fascinating narrative of the coast that the catamaran hugs as it makes its way north to the sea turtles area.Once we reached the spot, we were the first boat to arrive so the turtles were eager for our guide and the turtles swam among us. The snorkeling was fun and seeing these beautiful creatures up close was humbling. Note touching / harassing the turtles is against the law.Once we had our fill, the catamaran took us to a lunch spot where I wished we had time for second helpings. but the snorkeling awaited. The staff unleashed an inflatable lounger and independent operators approached the group for water sports (water skis, banana-boat trip, and the like) so bring cash to prepare. My family opted to enjoy the relaxing open swim instead.I did not expect the catamaran ride itself to be a highlight. I considered booking a 2nd trip for the next day because it was that relaxing and enjoyable! Never mind the turtles.Also, the small size of our tour group certainly enhanced the experience. If you are on the fence on whether paying up for small group is worth it, I assure you it is! Aside from the personalized attention the crew gave you, I note that there were not tens of turtles so if you have too many people in your group, you will be fighting to come close to one.In short, do book this trip when you are in Barbados. It was a highlight.Thank you so much to our crew for a memorable outing!!

Fun and service oriented crew that has a great sense of humour. Lunch was very tasty. Would do it again!

This was our second trip on calabaza (the previous one being 7 years ago). From the moment we were picked up at our hotel by Adrian we felt in very safe hands. He was chatty and informative and started the day in a wonderful way. We met Ben who took us to the boat and he introduced us to the crew. We had 3 other families with us and the relaxed atmosphere ensured we gelled from the start and had a great rapport. We were fed and watered with excellent food throughout the morning and finished off with a delicious lunch. We stopped 3 times. Once to swim with turtles which was spectacular and the second to snorkel over a wreck and see some incredible fish and an octopus and stingrays. The last stop was great fun for the teenagers and adults alike, we were swimming and chatting and having a whale of a time. The crew know their stuff and are happy to talk about island life, the wildlife and are fun and upbeat. It was a memorable experience and one we highly recommend. Thank you as well for making my birthday such a special one.

Wow! It was amazing! We took the smaller catamaran (8 people) and it was the best thing ever! Graham and his team were lovely! Very knowledgeable!

Small group so not too crowded. Updated, modern boat and delicious food and drinks! Indefinitely recommend.
