The Lunch Cruise

This is the cruise that started it all. Since 2002, Silver Moon’s lunch cruise has been the way discerning travellers experience the Barbados coastline — about twelve guests, five hours, and a crew who know these waters like home. No crowds, no rush, no jostling for space. Just the sea and the company you choose.

Your Day on the Water

Your five hours begin at the Shallow Draught in Bridgetown, where our crew welcomes you aboard with a cold drink in hand. We set sail along the sheltered coast, where the turquoise waters are calm and the shoreline is fringed with swaying palms.

Once anchored, you’ll slip into the warm Caribbean Sea and swim alongside the sea turtles. These gentle creatures are used to visitors and will glide right past you — it’s an unforgettable encounter. You’ll also explore a shipwreck or coral reef teeming with tropical fish — and our crew will have even first-time snorkellers feeling at home in the water.

A Proper Bajan Lunch

Between swims, settle back on deck for a proper Bajan buffet lunch — think seasoned chicken, rice and peas, macaroni pie, fresh garden salad, and fish grilled right there on board. The menu varies with the season and what’s freshest. It’s authentic Barbadian cooking, the kind you’d find at a family table on the island.

Throughout the cruise, our bar is open and fully stocked. Rum punch (made with Barbados’ own Mount Gay rum), cocktails, chilled wine, local Banks beer, and soft drinks flow freely all day.

The Silver Moon Difference

Most catamaran operators in Barbados carry forty to sixty passengers per trip. We carry twelve. That means more space on deck, more personal attention from our crew, and a genuinely relaxed atmosphere. Many of our guests tell us it feels like being invited onto a friend’s private yacht.

More than six thousand five-star TripAdvisor reviews speak for themselves. And many of our guests are repeat visitors — people who come back to Barbados year after year and wouldn’t dream of missing a day on Silver Moon.
