Overview

Red Sail Sports Aruba runs this sunset dinner sail from Piet's Pier Bar on J.E. Irausquin Blvd in Noord, behind the Hyatt Regency. The trip lasts 2.5 hours and starts with check-in at the pier, half an hour before the boat leaves, so the listed departure time of 17:30 is the sailing time rather than the arrival time. The boat returns to the same pier at the end.

Once aboard, the evening combines a Caribbean buffet with an open bar that covers cocktails, local beer, sodas and juices, while live music plays during the sail. The maximum group size is 65 travellers, so it is a shared departure rather than a private charter. Under-5s travel free with an adult, and anyone under 18 must be with a parent or legal guardian.

It suits travellers who want dinner, drinks and music rolled into one sunset outing without organising transport, since hotel pickup and drop-off are not included and tips are not covered. Reviewers often mention the crew and the open bar, and several describe the atmosphere as lively.

What To Expect From The Tour

A few practical points from the listing and from what travellers report will help you plan the evening.

Getting there. Hotel pickup and drop-off are not included. The pier sits behind the Hyatt Regency on J.E. Irausquin Blvd, near public transportation, and the trip ends back at the same spot.
Check-in timing. Check-in takes place 30 minutes before departure, and the sailing starts at 17:30. You need to show an e-voucher at the counter, so have it ready on your phone or printed.
Group size. The boat takes a maximum of 65 travellers, so expect a shared departure. Reviewers often mention the lively atmosphere on board.
Food and drink. The Caribbean buffet and the open bar are both included, covering cocktails, local beer, sodas and juices. Tips and gratuities are not included.
Kids and teens. Children younger than 5 travel free with an adult. Anyone under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian, and the operator asks to be told about kids who cannot swim, since a life jacket is mandatory for them.
Music and vibe. Live music is part of the evening, and reviewers describe the atmosphere as lively. Several travellers also single out the crew as a highlight of the trip.

Common issues. Hotel pickup and drop-off are not included, and tips and gratuities are not covered, so budget for your own transport to the pier and any tipping. The trip is not wheelchair accessible, though pushchairs can be brought on board. It also depends on good weather and a minimum number of travellers, and if the operator cancels for either reason you will be offered a different date or experience, or a full refund. One reviewer reported crowding on a busy departure, so be prepared for a full boat.
