Downside my trip was canceled but upside, the company was able to get me on a boat 2 days later. The boat was great, the snorkeling was great, the staff was exceptional!

Tour was excellent! Love the first stop - lots of turtles to see. The shipwreck was cool, but the waters were rough. It's hard to swim at that spot. Last spot was great- just chilled in the water without life jackets and jumped/dove off the boat!! Would highly recommend. Food and drinks were also awesome!!
Great Time all around

Great experience! Family had a great time snorkeling and lounging on the nets! Lunch was delicious and drinks were tasty esp the captains punch! Boat had plenty of space for the amount of ppl it can hold it never felt crowded. Staff was very friendly and attentive. I would definitely do this again!

Had 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

Very 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.

My 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.

Me 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.
