The El Tigre and El Tigre II schooner catamarans are built for performance, stability and comfort. With the ability to carry 50 people we limit our cruises to only 36 passengers for absolute comfort on board. Each of the catamarans offers daily lunch cruises that will delight you by taking you to swim and snorkel with the friendly sea turtles, and again over some shipwrecks. Explore how the shipwrecks have been transformed into a playground for many tropical fish! The El Tigre catamarans also host a sunset “Cocktails and Canapés” event. After snorkeling over the shipwrecks and with the sea turtles enjoy the vibrant colours of a sunset in paradise. Sparkling wine, cocktails & canapés are available as attentive and warm-hearted crew cater to your every need. This cruise is also ideal for working professionals seeking to unwind on the ocean and revitalize themselves. Private cruises can also be arranged for any occasion and tailored to your desires.

I live in Barbados and have always gone on the very big catamarans. No more. I am a convert to this particular boat. The staff were amazing. Due to the fact that it is not one of the very large boats my friends and I did not have to deal with loads of other people on the boat. It was heaven. It felt like a private charter even though it was not. I highly recommend this boat.
Nick, Luca and Akim made our day out w Calypso cruises the highlight of our vacation. Whether swimming w the turtles, seeing the shipwrecks or just relaxing on the boat the calypso crew attends to every detail. It is pure fun from start to finish. And of course the pick up and drop off by Sean makes the day even easier. It is a much smaller group than some of the other boats running at the same time and everyone is just so friendly. It’s Barbados at its finest.

As always Nick delivers the best catamaran cruise trip on the island. This is absolutely a must-do when you visit Barbados and Nick and his team on Calypso Cruises offer a magical day. Their attentive service, fabulous food and drink and stops to swim the majestic turtles and snorkle over reefs and wrecks will give you lif time memories.
Mel Early | Oct 2018
Had the best day with Nick and James. From start to finish it was all i wished for and more. Nothing was too much trouble and the knowledge and information given to us was second to none. We were lucky there was only myself and my husband and American couple on board so it felt more like a private charter. Weve been on catamarans all over the Caribbean and parts of Europe and i have to say this made the rest look like amateurs. Loved ever second of it. Thanks Nick and James for a truely memorable day xx

Customer Reviews
It was a great time and one of the best excursions we have ever taken! The crew was amazing and the scenery was beautiful. Loved the turtles.
Skipper Jason and his First Mate, Rory were amazing hosts! The drinks were flowing regularly too. Rory swam down and found fish and turtles for us to see. The photos Rory took are amazing and available free of charge, which is fantastic. We had the best day – only wish we could do it all over again. Thank you.
We had an awesome experience with Jason & Rory. In addition to seeing lots of turtles when snorkeling we also also saw four humpback whales in the distance. Jason really knew the best places to snorkel and Rory was awesome underwater. Great couple of very nice guys that made our day with them the highlight of our trip.

The crew were fantastic and took great care of us from the moment we stepped on board. Having been on a few catamaran tours before, I can say that the quality of the service, food and general experience was exceptional and we can’t wait to come back again.”
