Drift above white sand patches, limestone formations, and protected seagrass beds where turtles feed, surrounded by parrotfish, butterflyfish, sergeant majors, and blue tangs. Your guide will point out natural sea caves and tunnels carved into the limestone cliffs. As you float through these turquoise waters, you may find yourself face to face with a graceful sea turtle gliding peacefully nearby. This is a small-group experience with 60 to 75 minutes in the water, designed for personal attention and a relaxed pace. Note: Shore-based excursion. Transportation via bus.

This was an incredible experience! We saw so many turtles, and even got to witness a couple of them swim to the surface for air. Our trio of guides were amazing at ensuring we all had the opportunity to see the turtles and keeping us safe. Everyone was super friendly and we spent the perfect amount of time in the water. I'd definitely recommend this tour when you visit Aruba. Plus, it was early in the morning, so you had the whole rest of the day to spend at the beach or sightsee.

Great snorkeling and turtle spotting. Easy pickup, great guides and informative tour both on the bus and in the water. Dave drove us to the beach, Orlando swam out and spotted the turtles while Sam guided us along pointing out interest sights and providing information along the way.
