The best day of your stay

Aruba’s best family operated sail and snorkel cruise since 1977

Tranquilo was founded by Capt. Mike Hagedoorn whose passion for sailing was legendary. It was only natural to make of his hobby, his day job. And so he started taking guests out sailing on the Tranquilo along the coast of Aruba. He did so for 20 years before Capt. Anthony, his son, took the helm and kept the tradition alive till present day. Tranquilo means Tranquility and that is just what we invite you to experience with us. Choose from our Famous Lunch Cruise to the south side with mom’s delicious Dutch pea soup and drift snorkeling at our secluded reef island “Mike’s Reef “. Or choose one of many Private Sailing trips or Dinner Sails we have to offer.

Capt. Anthony grew up on Spanish Lagoon. Sailing, snorkeling, windsurfing and diving were daily routines and no one knows the area better than Anthony. The sailing trip to Spanish Lagoon is off the beaten path and drift snorkeling along the magnificent coral formations is a unique experience not to be missed.

What Our Patrons Have to Say

We chartered with Morningstar for an afternoon sail to Savaneta. It was a nice change of pace from the busier Palm Beach based sails and took us to new and much less traveled snorkeling spots. The captain and crew exuded hospitality and really created the perfect day for us. A great boat heading to great spots with a great crew!!!

We had a lovely 4 hour cruise around the island, with a stop by the mangroves to swim (we could have gone snorkeling, but we chose to just relax in the water). They had pool noodles, and flotation devices, as well as snorkeling equipment. They even provided towels and pillows if you wanted to nap on the deck after your swim!

It’s was a wonderful day on the boat. We were a group and the captain and crew took us to 3 different locations, we snorkeled in one, went swimming in the other and in the last one, dinner was served, it was magnificent. We got cold and hot snacks throughout the day, beautiful presentation! The drinks were fabulous too! We would recommend this charter to everyone, it’s worth it and unforgettable!

Wonderful experience!! We have been coming to Aruba for years and ALWAYS book with Morning Star for a sailboat day! The food and service is amazing everytime! They take you to snorkel spots you can't get to without a boat and always cater to you throughout the day! Can't wait until next year!

Video impression.

I had an unforgettable experience with Octopus Sailing Charters!

I had an unforgettable experience with Octopus Sailing Charters! From start to finish, everything was absolutely perfect. The crew was incredibly welcoming and attentive, making sure everyone felt comfortable and well-cared-for. And of course that our drinks were full.

10/10 would go again.

I cannot recommend this enough. The staff were incredible! Particularly Jose, he was very entertaining at check in while we eagerly awaited the second boat to pick us up to the catamaran. This was a great start to the tour. We all had smiles as we boarded. The food was good & the staff always made sure we had a drink. Swimming was so much fun! An adequate amount of time at each place to snorkel & explore.

Best afternoon catamaran adventure

Tommy and I were excited to experience this catamaran adventure. Roger and his crew exceeded our expectations in every way. The smooth sailing, music, drinks, and food were excellent. The service was most outstanding! Roger, because of his naval experience was an excellent captain!! Kudos to all!!
