Klein Curacao Catamaran

A Klein Curacao catamaran day is about nine hours: you board on Curacao’s south coast at 8:00 AM, cross open sea to the uninhabited island of Klein Curacao, spend the middle of the day on its white beach, and sail back in the afternoon. Three catamarans make the trip and they are not the same boat in different colours: one includes the open bar, one charges for alcohol, and one leaves the snorkel gear to you. The first here is Irie Tours’ Curacao: Klein Curacao Catamaran Day Trip with Snorkeling, from $140 a person (checked November 2026), with 132 reviews.

Three catamarans, one table

Per person in US dollars. GetYourGuide checked November 2026, unchanged across the sampled dates from November 2026 to March 2027; Viator checked November 2026. “Not stated” means the listing does not say.

The short answer

If you want everything in one price, Irie Tours’ catamaran covers breakfast sandwiches, lunch, the open bar after 12:30 PM and a snorkel and mask, and at $140 it costs less than the catamaran yacht. BlueFinn Charters’ day also pours a premium open bar, but its snorkel gear is not included. All Boat Charters’ catamaran yacht serves the most elaborate lunch on paper, filet mignon and salmon, and charges for every alcoholic drink; it also draws the most complaints about crowding.

Twin hulls and the open sea

Two hulls do not make this crossing smooth on a windy morning. The way out heads into the sea; the way back runs with it. On Irie Tours’ catamaran a reviewer writing in Dutch (13 October 2026) counted two hours of big waves and soaked, seasick passengers on the way out and called the ride home much nicer, while one writing in English (8 November 2026) enjoyed sitting at the front and feeling the spray. Catamaran, yacht or powerboat weighs the crossing on each kind of boat.

Space on board

Here the three part company. At least eight reviews of All Boat Charters' catamaran yacht rated three stars or lower, between July 2024 and September 2026, describe too many passengers for the seats; one (26 August 2026) adds that everyone goes ashore in a small boat holding 10 to 12 people at a time. On Irie Tours’ boat, a one-star review from 1 May 2026 describes about ten seats for many more people on a rough crossing. BlueFinn Charters’ catamaran has a restroom on board; at the island you take a dinghy ashore or swim.

On the island

Klein Curacao is a Ramsar wetland, site 2355, designated on 31 July 2018: an uninhabited island together with the sea around it. Apart from the lighthouse, the tourist board counts a few huts and one beach house there, and a “possibility of encountering sea turtles” in the water. From the beach you can walk across to the lighthouse and the shipwreck, snorkel off the beach, or stay under whatever shade you find; reviewers of Irie Tours’ day disagree on how much there is. Shade and time on the island goes through it, and turtles at Klein Curacao has what the records say.

What you will pay in the end

Irie Tours’ price includes the drinks; round-trip transport to The Village Marina is $15 a person on top, free in the Jan Thiel area. On the catamaran yacht, budget for drinks: cocktails are $10 and mocktails $8, paid by card on board. BlueFinn Charters lists hotel transfers from $19 and no snorkel gear. What the Klein Curacao catamaran costs adds it up for each.

If you would rather not take a catamaran

Three other boats go to Klein Curacao, carded below: Miss Ann boat trips’ yacht with its own beach house, Mermaid Boat Trips Curaçao’s boat from 6:45 AM, and Powerboat Caribbean’s 10 am powerboat. And if you only want an evening on a catamaran, not a day at sea, the sunset catamarans stay near Curacao’s coast.
