# Aruba Happy Hour Sunset Sail with Savory Bites and Cocktails

**Guidekin's take:** A lounge boat sunset sail where every guest gets a cushioned seat with nobody behind and cocktails are served to you from an open bar, with snacks and a souvenir. Boarding is by a short shuttle boat from the beach hut; hotel pickup is not included. 4.7 from 1835 reviews at €80 per person.

**Snacks, cocktails?:** Cushioned seat, nobody behind you, cocktails served, snacks and a souvenir at €80 per person for 2h; shuttle boat boarding. 4.7 from 1835 reviews. Trade-off: Snacks, not a meal; no hotel pickup. (last checked September 19, 2026)

- Boarding takes place via a spacious shuttle boat (for up to 15 people) that transports guests to the catamaran.
