About this Experience
What you'll do:
You and your crew board the Moana, a private luxury catamaran, for a four-hour sailing experience across the calm, turquoise waters of Isla Mujeres Bay — one of the most sheltered and scenic sailing spots in all of Cancun.
Set sail from the marina – Step aboard your private catamaran and leave the crowded resort beach behind as the Moana heads out into the crystal-clear bay
Snorkel a coral reef – Drop into the warm, protected waters of Isla Mujeres Bay and explore vibrant coral formations with gear provided on deck
Sip from a premium open bar – Enjoy top-shelf spirits, wine, and champagne throughout the sail — poured by a certified sommelier who knows what he's doing
Dine on freshly prepared gourmet food – Your French chef-owner cooks onboard to order, with dishes tailored to your group's tastes and any dietary needs shared in advance
Dance, sunbathe, and celebrate – Control the soundtrack from your own playlist through the onboard sound system while your crew handles everything else
This is a fully private experience — no strangers, no group itinerary, no rush. The crew shapes the day around your group so the energy stays exactly where you want it.
Why we love it for your bachelorette party:
Private catamaran, full bay to yourselves – You're not sharing the boat or the moment with anyone outside your group; the entire crew, chef, and itinerary are yours for the day
Isla Mujeres Bay location – Calm, protected, and genuinely beautiful; none of the choppy open-water conditions that make some Cancun excursions miserable for first-timers
Chef and sommelier onboard – Not a cooler with beer and a bag of chips; a French chef who owns the boat prepares real food while a certified sommelier manages the bar
Fully customizable from start to finish – Music, snorkel timing, food preferences, celebration add-ons — every element adjusts to what your group actually wants
Boutique capacity, no crowds – With a maximum of 15 guests, the experience never feels like a mass-market tour; the crew knows your names before you board
About this experience partner:
Moana Catamaran is a private luxury sailing experience based in Cancun, run by a French chef and certified sommelier who personally hosts every trip aboard his own boat. Unlike large-scale excursion operators, Moana keeps capacity intentionally small — no more than 15 guests per sail — so the service, food, and attention to detail remain consistently high. Guests who've done both describe it as the version of a Cancun catamaran tour they wish they'd found first.
Additional information:
Group size – Accommodates up to 15 guests; ideal for bachelorette parties, bridal groups, and close-knit celebrations
Transportation – Round-trip transfer to the marina can be arranged for your group at an additional cost; guests traveling from Playa del Carmen or Tulum are welcome
Dock fee – A per-person dock fee is collected on arrival at the marina, as required by local port regulations
Food service – Gourmet onboard dining is optional and may carry an additional cost depending on the package selected; dietary restrictions and allergies are accommodated with advance notice
Premium liquor – Top-shelf and premium liquor upgrades are available and may include additional charges on select packages

Frequently Asked Questions
What types of catamarans do you offer?
We offer different sizes of catamarans, but the one that includes freshly prepared food and a chef on board is a 40-foot Fountaine Pajot. It's in excellent condition and offers a very comfortable and stylish sailing experience.
Can we customize the tour itinerary?
Yes, we can modify the itinerary depending on weather conditions, wind direction, and speed. We’re also happy to adapt the menu to accommodate allergies or special dietary requirements
Is music available onboard?
Yes! The catamarans are equipped with Bluetooth sound systems so you can play your favorite party playlist.
If we’re staying in the Riviera Maya, can we depart from there?
If you're staying in the Riviera Maya, we recommend making the short drive to Cancún for departure. Our catamaran is based in Cancún because the bay of Isla Mujeres offers calmer and more protected waters, making it the best area for sailing—even if you're coming from the Riviera Maya.
What is included in the experience, and what costs are extra?
Your experience includes a private 4-hour sail on the Moana catamaran with a dedicated crew, snorkel equipment, and access to the onboard premium open bar. You’ll also have full use of the sound system and all onboard amenities throughout the trip. Additional costs may include the per-person dock fee charged at the marina, optional gourmet food packages prepared onboard by the chef, premium liquor upgrades, and any requested round-trip transportation from your hotel or accommodation.
