Very touristy thing but different and fun especially for kids. We had mostly adults in our sub and everyone had fun.

We enjoyed ourselves very much. Seeing all the sponges, corals, fish and shipwrecks was pretty cool. Visibility was pretty good. Only slight cloudiness but everything was still very visible. Crew and captains were a blast, they provided a great vibe. We didn’t see any sharks or stingrays sadly, but we still really enjoyed what we did see :) Seats are not big, I do not recommend this activity for anyone overweight.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. The submarine was smaller than I expected. But it was an amazing adventure. Didn't really see much kinda disappointed. 😢 the water was foggy. Seen a couple of fish and alot of coral. My pictures didn't come out great.

Absolutely fantastic experience. You start with a 15 minute boat ride out to the submarine. Great views although you’re packed tight with other guests. Your staff was fantastic, informative and entertaining. We hit a depth of about 145ft. A must-do experience if you haven’t done it before.

Was a really nice tour. Boat ride to the Atlantis and then a nice ride under the ocean. Saw several manmade shipwrecks and lots of fish.

I walked up during my vacation in Aruba and bought a ticket on the spot. They just so happened to have a boat leaving that very minute! I wasn't really sure what to expect, and I must say, mind blown! The crew were fabulous...friendly and welcoming. I believe Trevor was one of the main crew members. But the captain and the 2nd mate were also funny but professional. The submarine was impressive. Lots of room to sit comfortably. The views were really cool. I saw some vibrantly colored fish, and amazing coral structures. I wasn't even expecting the sunken ships, nice touch! On the boat ride to the sub, I saw a sea turtle come up to the surface, and also a dolphin. My camera sucked at taking pics and videos, but the memories will last a lifetime.

Amazing. We went down 145 ft. No issues with pressure. We say sting ray, shark, barracuda and so many tropical fish.
