Sunset over the sea from a boat

In short

Sunset cruises usually leave in the afternoon, around 14:00 to 15:00, and return in the evening. Catamaran sunset tours are listed at about USD 102 to 110 per adult, a guide range checked on 5 November 2026.

What it is and who it suits

A sunset cruise leaves in the afternoon, anchors or sails out for the sunset, and returns in the evening. Catamaran sunset tours are listed at about USD 102 to 110 per adult, a guide range checked on 5 November 2026. It suits couples, families and small groups.

Operators report different schedules. One speedboat cruise departs at 3:00 PM and finishes at 6:30 PM. A catamaran tour picks guests up from 14:00 and transfers them to the marina. Times are approximate because tours can vary slightly. The island faces west, so the sun sets over open water along the whole main beach.

How the evening runs on one catamaran tour

  • 14:00: pickup and transfer to the marina.
  • From 16:30: free time on board for swimming, snorkelling, paddleboarding and a water slide.
  • 18:00: BBQ dinner on board near Kiss Bridge for the sunset.
  • 19:45: fireworks at Kiss Bridge, watched from the catamaran.

A speedboat cruise anchors mid-sea around 5 PM so guests can enjoy the sunset. The sunset cruise is offered as a small-group tour with local guides, and a shared daily tour needs a minimum departure of 11 guests.

What is included

Inclusions belong to individual operators, so use this as a checklist. One reports beer, water, soft drinks, seasonal fruit, an English-speaking guide and hotel pickup near An Thoi Harbour within 10 km. Another serves complimentary beer and soft drinks throughout and includes a BBQ meal. One notes that only one bottle of water is included and that beer, soft drinks and extra shellfish cost extra. Ask:

  • Which drinks and food are included?
  • Is hotel pickup included, and from which area?
  • Is squid fishing offered? It is a possible bonus, not guaranteed.
  • Are gratuities optional?

Safety and conditions

The sunset is part of the programme only from November to April at one operator. Between May and October, boats move to Sao Beach or An Thoi and there is no sunset. Ask about life jackets, swimming rules at dusk and the weather policy. Look at things to do near An Thoi if you want to fill the day before or after.
