Private Snorkeling in Aruba: Design Your Own Cruise

You pick the coastline, the captain handles the boat

A two-hour private snorkeling cruise in Aruba where your group designs the itinerary based on what you want to explore. You get a dedicated captain, snorkeling equipment, bottled water and soda, and the boat to yourself: no other groups aboard. Pickup is included.

The experience

The boat is yours for two hours, and so is the decision about where to go. Instead of following a fixed route, you tell the captain which part of Aruba's coastline interests you (the white sand beaches, the coral reefs, the marine life you want to see), and he takes the group there. The motorized cruiser is sleek and comfortable, and the captain's job is to know the water and tend to what your group needs.

Snorkeling equipment comes with the booking, along with bottled water and soda. The captain speaks English, Spanish and Dutch. Because this is a private cruise, only your group is on the boat. You don't share the experience or the captain's attention with strangers. Pickup is arranged for you.
