Timed just right—2 to 3 days before or after the full moon—this exclusive cruise offers front-row seats to one of nature’s rarest shows: the sun setting in the west while the full moon rises in the east, both glowing in the Aruban sky at the same time. As you sail along the island’s stunning coastline, enjoy premium wines, craft cocktails, and gourmet hors d’oeuvres, all set to the rhythm of live music. With extended time on the water, cool ocean breezes, and a sky painted in gold and moonlight, this cruise is pure magic—perfect for dreamers, romantics, and sunset chasers alike.

Traveler reviews
ENJOY A SUNSET/MOONRISE CRUISE IN ARUBA
When visiting Aruba in September we wanted something different than our usual sunset cruise, which we have done every year for many years now. The concierge at Casa Del Mar/Aruba Beach Club suggested the Aruba Sunset Celestial Cruise, as there was going to be a full moon while we were there. She explained it was a sunset cruise which extended into a moonrise cruise so we decided to book it. We couldn't have been happier with this cruise. The crew members were fantastic! There was an open bar and they walked around with trays of hor d'oerves which were very tasty. The highlight. (besides the Aruba Aribi drinks, sunset and moonrise) was a live flutist providing music during the cruise. It was such a relaxing evening enjoying Aruba's ocean and sky. If you are in Aruba during a full moon, don' hesitate to enjoy this sunset/moonrise cruise. It only happens once a month! You can contact Nashya.Paesch@pelican-aruba.com or +297 5872302 ext 243. Or better yet stop by her desk in person. She will help you with all g our excursion/dining needs.

My partner and I went on the Sunset Moonlight Cruise in Aruba, and it was absolutely incredible! The energy on board was amazing — fun, relaxed, and full of good vibes. The hors d’oeuvres were delicious, and the staff went above and beyond to make the evening special. They even took the time to sit down and chat with us, which made the experience feel so personal and genuine. A huge thank you to Nashya Paesch at Pelican Adventures for helping us book this unforgettable experience!
