I’ve worked for various water sports and ATV/UTV tour companies on the island for over 20+ years and I am extremely knowledgeable about the boating industry, snorkeling, and the island in general. I am also a certified diver. I’m blessed to be able to provide this service for you in my beautiful island of Aruba and I work extremely hard to grow and improve the business.

Video impression.

I had an unforgettable experience with Octopus Sailing Charters!

I had an unforgettable experience with Octopus Sailing Charters! From start to finish, everything was absolutely perfect. The crew was incredibly welcoming and attentive, making sure everyone felt comfortable and well-cared-for. And of course that our drinks were full.

10/10 would go again.

I cannot recommend this enough. The staff were incredible! Particularly Jose, he was very entertaining at check in while we eagerly awaited the second boat to pick us up to the catamaran. This was a great start to the tour. We all had smiles as we boarded. The food was good & the staff always made sure we had a drink. Swimming was so much fun! An adequate amount of time at each place to snorkel & explore.

Best afternoon catamaran adventure

Tommy and I were excited to experience this catamaran adventure. Roger and his crew exceeded our expectations in every way. The smooth sailing, music, drinks, and food were excellent. The service was most outstanding! Roger, because of his naval experience was an excellent captain!! Kudos to all!!

Welcome To Spronk Catamarans

Rubaiyat Catamaran is one of the many famous Spronk designed catamarans of the Caribbean and the first original build of Peter Spronk. Rubaiyat only recently sails the waters of Aruba and is the most unique and prestigious addition to Aruba’s charter boat fleet.

Rubaiyat is an elegant catamaran with an exclusive and personalized design that primarily focuses on chartering and daily trips. The boat offers an ample space to move around providing its guests with enough comfort during the trip. Additionally, guests also have the choice to sit on our net in front of the boat while enjoying the occasional refreshing spray of the Caribbean sea or simply enjoy our refreshing drinks and snacks in our shaded cockpit while at the same time taking in the beautiful views of the Aruban coastline.

During the trip we will take you out on the crystal blue waters surrounding Aruba. First we will head out to Boca Catalina where you will be able to enjoy a nice swim with some turtles and snorkel at the the Antilla Shipwreck. Complimentary snorkel equipment will be available on deck.

After Boca Catalina we will sail next to Nikki beach, on the southside of the island, where you can enjoy some delicious BBQ provided by us at the beach.

Concluding the excursion, we will sail out to the original meeting point as you view the sun setting down.

So grab your shades and get ready to sail away to happiness!

AND LOTS MORE..

Testimonials

If you are looking for a great sailing experience, I highly recommend this company. Me and my family had tons of fun snorkeling at Boca Catalina. Shout out to the awesome crew.

Fun thing to do with teenagers. Snorkeling by Boca Catalina and sunbathing on the trampoline. The best part is that it was a 4 and half hour trip that offered dining off board at Reflexion Beach. I’m sure we would book with them for our next visit to Aruba.

From snorkeling in the clear waters at Boca Catalina, sipping cocktails, sunbathing on the trampoline and dining on the beach I can say my wife and I had the best of time! Shout out to Spronk Catamarans and its crew for giving us an amazing time!

Nice smooth sailing on this wonderful catamaran. The Jordan and Tim were great!.. Best way to celebrate my 50th birthday on a private tour! 🙂
