What To Expect

Between 9 am and about 1 pm we take our certified divers to a great dive spot in our beautiful and quiet area on the southern side of the island. Sometimes from shore, mostly with our charming lady the Drumfish. The afternoon dive is always from shore and can be at Tres Trapi. Because these dives are performed with our dive equipment, we ask you to prepare your own dive set for the dive so that you feel comfortable with your equipment during the dive. If you need help with this, our Instructors are ready to help you where necessary. Underwater, these Instructors will guide you along the beautiful reefs or wrecks.

Best Dive Company in Aruba

I have been able to dive around the world, and I have never had as wonderful an experience as I did with Pure Diving. They were prompt getting back to me making the reservation. They answered all of my questions. They picked us up at our resort. The rental equipment was brand new and in excellent condition. The dive boat was not overly crowded and they helped us move our gear and tanks on and off of the boat. The safety brief was clear and understandable at each dive site. The dive masters were able to let us explore, while also keeping us together as a group while we explored ship wrecks, airplane wrecks, and reefs. We saw an incredible amount of fish, turtles, eels, and coral. The boat captain was very good with the boat, the drop off and pick up was seamless without waiting very long once we surfaced. And I can not speak highly enough about ALL of the staff. They were so nice and professional. If you are diving anywhere else in Aruba you are with the wrong dive company. Prue Diving is the only place worth spending your money and time with.

Amazing trip to Aruba and the highlight was diving with Pure Diving. Excellent staff and crew. Finished our last "confined water" class with Pure, then did two dives the next day and two dives the day after that as well. Alonso was our instructor. He was great! Boat Captain and staff were all awesome as wll. Would DEFINITELY book again and plan to! Dove to the Jane C shipwreck, amd several reefs.
One great experience

I am 72 years old and had not scuba dived in 5 years. The instructor was patient, helpful, extremely pleasant. The dive was awesome but the service was even better. Already scheduled my next dive.
Great dive for beginners.

This was amazing for a first dive. Our guide was very helpful and attentive. He showed us where all the fish were and anything of note. He made sure to check in on us and make sure we were comfortable. Would definitely book again.
Just say no, SAFETY ISSUE

I am going to make this as short and to the point as possible by just listing my issues. 1. When I was unable to reach the person (we are a on a cruide) who put this together I started emailing 2 days before the dive and didn't hear back. I did not put the dive together and did not have access to the information shared with them. Even in my original emails that shared my credit card information, I asked for details ( two weeks ago) and was not answered, so communication is really bad. On top of that, the owner made a snide remark about how my last email (mind you out of 5 email/whatsapp/ messages over two days) stating she doesn't answer anything after 6:30 pm. Well she didn't answer any of them, at all, even the next day. 2. Now lets talk about safety issues. I was diving with a new diver, I had to ask for her to have her gear checked. Nothing was ready, nothing was put together by the staff. Nothing. The gear provided, did not have depth gauges! Yes, you read this correctly. I was so worried on the first dive for my friend because she had no way of knowing how deep she was. They did not offer dive computers or have them either. So, on the 2nd dive I gave my dive watch to my friend and asked the dive master stay close to her, stayed on the boat and skipped the 2nd tank. Upon docking, the wash bins were not ready or filled. It was a small mess of people standing around trying to figure stuff out. When settling my tab, I let the owner know I only dived one tank. She insisted on charging me for two, stating that I had signed up for two. I did not. In fact the only request I made besides meeting details (which I never got) was for nitrox. They did not provide this, with no explanation. So three of our group dived regular. One person had their own equipment but had a mechanical issue, a big leak. He had to use it anyway do to the fact that they did not have any depth gauges. Anyway, I do not recommend this company for the reasons stated above. If you do decide to dive with then regardless of these issues, note, bring a sandwich, they only offer a few pieces of fruit, bring some cold water, they offer tap water that is warm. Have a depth gauge with you or a dive watch. Dive masters were cool, the captain was great.

Pure Diving Aruba was a fantastic experience! I did 4 dives with them over 2 days. The rental equipment was excellent, staff was very friendly, professional, and safety conscience, and diving was very personalized with just 3-4 divers per instructor. I have my PADI AOW cert but still a novice with 10-15 dives. I knew I was in good hands when I met other local and tourist divers with 700+ dives that have been diving with PDA for years! This was my first time to Aruba, we dove 4 locations on Southwest of airport within 30 min boat ride from the dock. Average depths about 50’ (max 125’) and visibility was great - 60+ feet. We saw several green moray eels, spiny lobster, abundant colorful fish, and swam thru airplane wrecks. I’ll definitely dive with them again! Thanks PDA!
Best shore dive of my life!

I have been diving since 1994 and primarily in the United States (all over the California Coast and Hawaii). This is the 1st time I dove outside of that. I chose this dive shop due to the care it took with the environment and the incredible reviews. Since my teenagers (18yrs old each) and I did not want to spend a whole day diving we did the 1 tank dive. It was great and a ton of fun. The staff is great and funny as well as making sure we were all comfortable. I highly recommend them and next time we are in Aruba I will be using them for a 3 tank all-day dive.
Great Aruba Dive

My daughters and I enjoyed the trip a lot!! Although we are certified divers this was our first dive as such about a year after getting certified. They were helpful in reminding us of some basics and guiding us the entire time. The rental equipment was also great. Thank you Steve, Marc and Peter!!
