5.00Had a fantastic time on the morning sail. The highlight for me was seeing multiple turtles at the first stop. The crew was very friendly and professional, and lunch was delicious. A real highlight of our time in Aruba!
Smooth sailing

5.00Very fun trip along the beach to see turtles, fish and a shipwreck. The boat is clean and spacious offering inside seating with shade and clean restrooms (men and women). Snacks, lunch and drinks were very good. Crew was courteous, helpful, safety conscious and fun. We had a wonderful time and highly recommend to others looking to get out on the water to snorkel.

1.00My wife and I selected the 3 location morning snorkeling tour. From the time we boarded the catamaran, there was a lack of common courtesy and respect. The fins I was given were both torn at the heel and instep. There were many pairs available. I noticed I was the only one that received a orange/pinkish pair. If you haven't snorkeled before, hopefully someone that you're with, will give you some instruction. The first location had schools of small fish and the highlight was seeing a sea turtle off the back of the boat. The second location was to a "sunken ship" which apparently was supposed to be 60 feet down. There were a few other boats around, but there was not much to look at. The "ship" was visible to some degree but there was not much else around. Less people on our catamaran went in the water this time or didn't spend much time in the water. The third location, there was a lot of coral to look at and some fish. The water was shallow, perhaps 6-8 feet at some parts. Less people went in the water by this time or didn't spend much time in the water. My wife and I were one of the last out after spending about 30 minutes in the water. Lunch was served onboard before returning back to shore. The staff was anything but friendly or respectful. When someone says "thank you", you reply "You're welcome". But we are encouraged to give a 5 star review after being encouraged to sing Happy Birthday to the Captain.

1.00Me and my husband were really looking forward to this tour! We came to Aruba on our honeymoon. However, on the morning of our excursion, it was raining with thunderstorms. We expressed discomfort with going on the boat with the weather conditions. We couldn’t rebook as we are due to leave the next day. I reached out for a refund since the conditions were unsafe to snorkel and be on a boat and be at risk of stronger currents. However, they refused to accommodate. I’m sure it was a great tour but they were more worried about their pockets then the safety of those on board.
Beautiful snorkeling trip !

5.00This snorkeling trip showed us all the best spots . We saw tons of different fish, coral, and even sea turtles. The crew was very friendly and safety conscious. The drinks were always flowing and the food was great. Big shout out to JayRun on helping me SBUBA for the first time. It was the most amazing experience. Once I understood how to use the regulator and sink down to the ocean floor , it was easy. I would have stayed down there for hours if possible. He gave us a choice to go down 60 feet or 10 feet. If you are a beginner , I recommend the 10 feet to get started. JayRun thanks for teaching me and giving me great memories on a flash drive to take home!

5.00I learned about the tour through the concierge at the Aruba Hilton Casino, and I couldn’t be more grateful! From start to finish, the experience far exceeded my expectations. The staff was incredibly welcoming, the food and drinks were fantastic, and everything—from the cleanliness to the overall atmosphere—was simply top-notch. I only wish I had brought an underwater camera to capture the magic. Truly unforgettable!
