The waters around Aruba are filled with dazzling marine life. Turtles, green and spotted moray eels, stingrays, yellowtail snappers, and many more are waiting for a visit from you. The water depth is from 20 feet to 140 feet which makes Aruba the perfect location for scuba diving. And don't forget to see some of the many shipwrecks, like the famous Antilla.
The meeting point for this Aruba excursion is just a 10-minute taxi ride from the cruise ship pier. There is the option for anyone in your group who would like to go along, they may either hang out at the beach location where you will meet for your dive. Your professional and friendly scuba dive staff will get you checked in and the fun underway. First, they will give you an orientation about dive/s and then pass out your gear (or you may bring your own).
Next, you will board the dive boat and head out for your dive/s! Your friendly, English-speaking PADI dive instructors will guide you through the dive sites around the island. You will enjoy a personal approach as there is a maximum of 6 divers per Dive Instructor!
