My sister and I had a memorable experience collecting sea glass on Aruba’s Sea Glass Island. We have been coming to Aruba for 30 years, and this is the first we heard of this excursion. It was great fun. Both driver and guide were exceptionally personable. And various colors of sea glass were everywhere. We are already thinking about our next trip there.
Fun but very basic. Expensive for what you get.

The shuttle driver and boat driver were both great; friendly, helpful. The experience was good, something I had always wanted to do. There were no amenities on the island, not even a port-a-potty. They did provide cold beverages. I do realize it is a nature experience and I do not regret doing it,but I probably wouldn’t do it again. $116/pp is a lot to pay for transportation.
Easier than using a kayak.

The Sea Glass Island exceeded our expectations. The amount of glass there was almost overwhelming. We most likely would do this again. Doing this activity by boat is definitely more preferable over doing the round trip by kayak for retired people like us.
Super trip to recommend

The terrain was more challenging than I anticipated. I found a sturdy branch to use as a walking stick. Our vendor provided bags and trowels to use . You have to dig to find blue pieces Overall it was totally worth the trip. A great experience!
It's a rip off

Not well coordinated with transport drivers. Then when when we got to the location, we were given dirty life vests before hopping on an inflatable boat to sea glass island. Most of us are over 65 so it was difficult to board this boat as it was wobbling in the water. Tools used to dig were old and rusty. Ea glass was mostly green, ember and white while the blue were tiny fragments. This trip was less than an hour. Very disappointing experience and definitely not worth the $127/person. Don't waste your money
Not a worthwhile experience
