Overview

Red Sail Sports runs this three-hour catamaran dinner cruise out of Noord, departing from the pier behind the Hyatt Regency at 17:30. Check-in happens at Piet's Pier Bar on J.E. Irausquin Blvd half an hour before departure. From there the boat sails along the coast while drinks flow from an open bar and dinner is served on board before the trip ends back at the same pier.

The package covers a three-course dinner buffet and an open bar stocked with local beer, cocktails, house wine, sparkling wine, sodas and juices. One described it as more romantic than rowdy, and reviewers repeatedly praise the attentive crew.

It suits adults best. The listing says children can come with a paying adult but that most bookings are grown-ups. Anyone who wants a relaxed evening on the water, with dinner and drinks included and hotel transfer arranged on their own, will find this a straightforward option. Gratuities and transport to the pier are not part of the price.

What To Expect From The Tour

A few practical points will help set expectations before booking.

Getting there. Hotel pickup and drop-off are not included, so travellers arrange their own transport to Piet's Pier Bar behind the Hyatt Regency. The listing says the location is near public transportation. Plan to arrive 30 minutes before the 17:30 departure.
Drinks and food. The open bar covers local beer, a cocktail menu, house wine, sparkling wine, sodas and juices for the whole trip. Dinner is a three-course buffet, and reviewers often praise it, with one naming the beef tenderloin as a highlight. Gratuities are not included.
Group feel. The boat takes a maximum of 40 travellers.
Timing and pace. The sail lasts 3 hours and returns to the pier where it began. Travellers who want a set minute-by-minute schedule should expect a relaxed evening on the water rather than a fast-moving tour.
Who it suits. The listing states most travellers can participate and that children under 18 must come with a paying adult, though mostly adults book it. The boat is not wheelchair accessible but pushchairs are allowed. A waiver form is required for everyone before boarding.
Music and mood. Reviewers describe a fun, entertaining crew and a sociable evening. One couple described the trip as romantic rather than a party, so expect conversation and relaxed sailing rather than loud nightlife.

Common issues. Weather matters: the listing says the experience requires good weather, and if it is cancelled for poor conditions guests are offered a different date or a full refund. A minimum number of travellers is also required, with the same rebooking or refund terms if it is not met. One reviewer found the buffet food cooler than expected because of a delayed departure. Hotel transport and gratuities are not included, and the catamaran is not wheelchair accessible.
