Catamaran cruises are like a private, serene and luxurious version of a cruise. Instead of getting caught up in the hustle and bustle of an oversized ocean liner with restrictive schedules and shared spaces, a catamaran offers an entirely unique sense of freedom and self-direction.

Our Cancun Adventures’ captains love to show our guests an up close and personal version of the sea via our yacht and sailboat charters. While on these personalized tours, you will get to see different parts of nearby islands, snorkel some of the world’s best-loved reefs and enjoy a gourmet lunch.

What is a Catamaran?

A catamaran is an oversized sailboat that offers a unique level of comfort due to its structure, which contains two hulls rather than one. This design keeps the boat balanced while navigating the sea, so you can unwind without clinging to your drink over every single wave.

What’s more, catamarans range in size and, with Cancun Adventures, you can choose from the 410 Catamaran Lagoon or the 440 Catamaran Leopard. Depending on which size of catamaran you choose to charter, you will have access to various deck layouts and private spaces where you can suntan, grab drinks from the bar and enjoy an island-inspired meal.

Another advantage of the catamaran is that they have shallow hulls, which means you can anchor practically anywhere and explore beaches and islands that would otherwise be off limits on a boat tour. This makes the catamaran ideal for tourists who want to discover some of the truly spectacular hidden gems throughout the Cancun region.

Tips for your catamaran tour:

  1. Pack light
    Use a soft-sided bag to pack only the essentials when you are boarding a catamaran cruise. A swimsuit, towel, a change of clothes, sunglasses and a hat should be the only things you need when chartering a catamaran trip with Cancun Adventures.
  2. Wear sun protection
    While sailing on a catamaran may feel breezy, the sun’s rays (and its reflection off the water) remains strong. We recommend wearing sun protective clothing. Sunscreen (even the biodegradable kind) contains chemicals and/or oils that can damage the reef sea life and fragile ecosystem.
  3. Waterproof belongings
    As you will be surrounded by the beautiful ocean on your catamaran tour, it is recommended to safeguard your personal belongings. Electronics (phones, etc.) and any essential documents should be placed in waterproof cases or plastic bags.
