Leaving Marin at 08:30 (free parking nearby is easily found), simple breakfast was provided. The catamaran team made us feel really welcome and although we did not speak much french helped us to understand by translating or providing a laminate info sheet - thank you.
Free flowing soft drinks from the start and then the rum flowed also from early on. Nice soundtrack to the day throughout.
Stopped at Diamant Rock and the 2 D'arlet beaches and snorkeling - seeing plenty of colourful fish and coral.
Lunch was plentiful and delicious and well organised.
Returned to Marin around 17:00.
Boat only holds 30 or so and there was around 17 of us that day but even with a full contingent there would be plenty of room and plenty of sun shade - which was appreciated.
We really enjoyed the day and would definitely return and ride again with the team if (when hopefully!) we come back to Martinique.

My family of 8 (2 seniors, 3 adults, 3 children) took the trip past Le Diamant to Arlet. We had a wonderful time thanks to the niceness of the crew and the quality of the catamaran.
They provided breakfast, lunch, snacks, and drinks throughout the day. All were delicious.
We went snorkeling (gear provided) and some of us saw a large turtle.

We had a great full day out with the gracious and helpful crew. Read previous reviews to hear more about the actual excursion. We felt fortunate that the passengers on our excursion were diverse enough to refrain from becoming a “party boat”. Since we were the only English speakers, we felt a bit isolated. Nonetheless, the lovely Josephine, the only crew member who spoke English, helped us limp along and ensured we understood. My pathetic high school French helped me capture some of the content, little of the nuances. Still, I would recommend the day out snorkeling the Anses.

On our visit to Martinque our goal was to Catamaran, with so many companies to choose from we went with one close by our rental Villa in Sainte Anne, in the Marina Le Marin.
We booked last minute so our choices were narrow, however Domonick went out of his way to find us a trip to suit our group. We chose the full day cruise.
The crew on board was welcoming and so much fun! Moo Moo was our bartender and she was as sweet and accommodating as can be! I’m sorry I didn’t get the Captain and assistants name😩, but they were friendly and also accommodating.
You begin with delicious breakfast breads, coffee and of course rum if you’d like it.
The trip takes you by diamond rock and if you don’t speak French, a laminated handout is given to explain the history, but listening to the captain speak, you can hear the passion in what he is saying.
Once you anchor, you have 2 1/2 hours to snorkel, jump and dive off boat, swim to shore and shop (we went in to purchase beer, some of us don’t drink rum😩) and we were able to bag it and swim it back on board. You will also Be provided with a delicious lunch with wine and homemade cakes by Moo Moo! Fabulous!
You then set sail once again to anchor and swim with Turtles.
We had a great group, me being the oldest( I was with my three kids and their significant others ages 22-36, the other party was a group of young professionals around the same age that were living and working on the island.
They were able to play their own music and danced hours and hours! It was a joy spending time with them all!
I absolutely recommend Prestige! Go ahead and have a ball!

A group of 5 of us were visiting Martinique and happened to meet the owners on our way to the island. They recommended we come on their tour and we couldn't be happier we did. It was everyone's favorite day of the trip. It started off with food and drinks on arrival at 8 am and continued with a beautiful sail around Diamond rock and some very knowledge background on it and the island. We then made our way to Anse D'Arlet and snorkeled in the most beautiful waters. Afterwards we had lunch at a fantastic beach restaurant with the freshest fish and tasty beverages. Finally we ended with a rise back to le Marin as the sun was setting behind us. I could not recommend prestige more highly and you should absolutely consider them if you would like to have an unforgettable experience!

really wonderful experience with prestige catamaran! The crew was friendly and well organized. The places visited are quite astonishing, full of different species of fishes and a lot of turtles to swim with. We are grateful to be part of this incredible team. I would strongly recommend this company to everybody! Thank you again!!

I cannot speak highly enough of the kindness and professionalism of the Prestige crew! We were in the minority of not speaking much French, and they went out of their way to explain things to us and make us feel included. The food and drinks were great, and the catamaran is beautiful and clean. After we got home after the sunset sail, I thought I left my phone on board, and emailed them immediately. They not only responded immediately, but also checked the boat for me ( I later found the phone in a different bag - whoops!). Everyone was considerate and so friendly and kind. Thanks to all - we'd go back in a second!

Prestige Catamaran was professional and accommodating from the start! We were a large group with lots of questions and they were helpful every step of the way. When the day of the catamaran trip arrived, I wasn’t sure what we’d find but what we found was a beautiful boat, friendly crew and professional team available to help us in the office.
The trip was perfection from the delicious breakfast they had waiting for us on board to the festive music they had playing for us as we settled in for our sail towards our snorkel location. On our way there, we encountered a massive pod of dolphins that joined us for part of the journey- it was amazing! The snorkel was also wonderful, everyone was impressed with the amount of fish and creatures we saw, including sea turtles!
The lunch they served was the best we had the whole week on the island. Our trip to Diamond Rock was informative as they gave us some history to read and brought us right up close to see just how massive it is.
All in all, this trip was perfection and we would do it all over again given the opportunity.

We called ahead to make a reservation for 7 people. We asked if we would sail or use the motor and the owner assured us we would sail and only use the motor when the wind was weak.
The tour started at 7am, the breakfast served was delicious. The crew was very friendly but already reeked of alcohol, including the captain. Unlike the owner had promised us, we barely sailed and used the motor for 90% of the trip. The dolphin excursion was extraordinary and we loved seeing these beautiful animals playing around the catamaran.
Our main complaints were that the owner lied to us about the amount of sailing we would do, then denied it when we confronted him. The crew was pretty tipsy by the end of the day, there were several other passengers that were getting way too drunk who should have been cut off, but continued to be served alcohol regardless, and the music was wayyy too loud and very obnoxious.

We spent the entire day on the ship, the boat was fairly new, and amazingly big and spacious. The crew was outstanding, offering food, cocktails and all sorts of beverages. We also had an historical background of the diamond rock.
It was simply amazing !

We cruise on February 2, in Martinique on February 10. How would I book for a group of 4, would you pick us up at the cruise dock at Fort-De France? Is meal included? How much do you charge?
