Book this trip!! - We had such an amazing time with Bluefin Charters on this trip. The important parts: the boat left promptly at 8:30; get there by 8:15, it took about 2 hours to get to the island, we had time to explore and snorkel before lunch, lunch was amazing - if you’re vegetarian make sure they know that (the salad options were plenty but they also had another option made for the # of people who need it), they wash the dishes off the back of the boat which brings an amazing array of fish - make sure you snorkel there after lunch, the party on the way back was fun!! Highly suggest bringing water shoes as there is a dead coral pileup that you have to cross to get to the beach from the water and it is rough on feet. Make sure to bring sunscreen - the sun is much stronger on the island (reef safe if possible!!) and towels as none will be offered on the boat. They had masks and snorkels but no fins or floating device - don’t let not having those stop you as the water is SALTY which means you’ll float and fins weren’t necessary. We thought the walk to the shipwrecks and lighthouse were worth it. The coral close to the beach is in very rough shape - it’s nearly all bleached if not actually dead so you won’t see much if you don’t go father out than the boats (you should have an indicator flag at that point if you try). There was a sea turtle when we first arrived but it left by the time we got into the water. We saw puffer fish, angel fish, flounder, a well hidden stingray, and a few other kinds of fish. But really, it was the crew who made this such a fun experience! Thanks for the great time!!

The Blue Finn excursion... - The Blue Finn excursion to Klein was incredible. The staff was super attentive, knowledgeable and always willing to help. The buffet lunch was delicious and perfect after a long day of swimming and hiking. We love how they turned the day into a little dance party on the ride back to the main land. Would highly recommend!

My 51st birthday - The sail out was long but very peaceful. The food was good ( especially tge steak bites ) the drinks were STRONG and the beach was beautiful. The ride back was nap time and much welcomed after all of the beautiful sun. The staff was fun and helpful. I'd definitely go again🥰

It was a lot of fun and... - It was a lot of fun and we enjoyed ourselves a lot at Klein. The crew makes sure that everyone is comfortable at all times and were friendly. The bbq was decent the sides were great but the chicken was really dry and tough.

Klein Curacao - Klein Curaçao is an uninhabited island. No facilities so you have to go back to the boat you came over on. The trip was a little rocky going out so take some Dramamine before sailing. Also make sure you eat before you board as lunch isn't served until 12:30 pm. The bar opens once lunch is served. You have to get off the boat onto a little boat to get to the island, so if you have any issues walking or climbing stairs this tour is not for you. Lunch had three meat options three salads bread and a peanut sauce. The peanut sauce was a hit - they ran out before everyone was served. The crew was good. The ride back the tunes were following everyone on board was signing and having an good time Even though it's advertised as WiFi on board there wasn't any on the black and white charter Overall this is a 4 of 5 stars. Would recommend

Amazing place, unpleasant staff. - The catamaran is excellent, the staff, not so much, a little rude, but nothing that interferes with the ride. The ride very troubled, many people vomiting, on the return, very quiet. For those who are thinking about taking an open bar, they only start the service and alcoholic beverages from 12:00, before that only water, juice and soft drinks. The lunch is delicious, but there is little quantity for each, when you think of repeating, they have already taken the food from the counter. Abstract: take the walk, but do it with the Mermaid, it has structure in the sand to welcome people.

This was...interesting.... - This was...interesting. Starting with the positive: Klein Curacao itself is unbelievably beautiful, and we're happy to have witnessed it. A few members of the crew, including the captain/emcee, tried their best to create a positive vibe. Other than that, we found the schedule and format of the excursion stressful. It's really not possible in the given time to see the lighthouse, shipwreck, and enjoy the beach too. Don't underestimate how much time it carves out to get back to the boat, have lunch, and reboard. It's likely we just weren't a good match with this company and the way they operate. If you're happy popping onto the beach for a bit and then lounging on the boat all day, having a few drinks, and enjoying the view, you'll probably love it.

I wouldn’t book it… - I wouldn’t recommend this excursion. The staff isn’t the friendliest, the Klein beach you arrive to doesn’t have any chairs or any activities. The food is okay but you don’t get to drink until they serve the food which ultimately only gives you a few hours to drink. Most of the day is just rough sailing to an empty beach and they allow kids. I wouldn’t recommend to adults.
