NATHAN was awesome! The first part showed how to use the equipment and the last hour and a half was in the water. Turtles, fish, wow, just a great experience! This is for everyone, solo travelers, couples, and families! Also thanks to LOUIS, ELENA, and RJ!!!

Awesome experience and Lewis the guide was unbelievable. He made us so comfortable being our first time snorkeling. Highly recommend you ask for Lewis. Green sea turtle kept coming up to see us face to face. The variety of fish life is unreal and Lewis is highly educated on them

      The staff were knowledgeable and very kind. They were attentive and very patient with my teenage daughter who had never snorkeled before. I had done it years ago, yet I still needed reminders about breathing properly and not panicking. The instructions worked. We were all able to have the experience together as a family. The instructors took some videos and photos of us per request. We would definitely recommend to family and friends. Thank you to all of you 3.

      TURTLES are Awesome and so was our Guide

      Samantha_S, May 2026
      My mother and I went snorkeling to see Turtles. They provided all the gear and the guide was awesome, younger gentleman, that knew where all the turtles were. You swim out from the shore down the rock carved steps and we got to see several turtles and even a ray. The one turtle swam up and even got some air right by us it was really cool. Worth the experience. The water was very clear and for two people who don’t like to stray out to far from the shoreline we were about 100yds out and felt very safe.

      Nicole_M, May 2026
      I had an amazing time. The experience overall was amazing. I gave it 3 stars because we went over a week ago and I have been trying to contact them to retrieve any video or pictures they took and they will not respond to me. My advice is to take your own photos if you want them.

      Response from Host, May 2026

      Jeffrey_O, Apr 2026
      It’s an absolutely amazing experience. I was able to swim next to a sea turtle. I would like to thank Nicholas for being so patient with me and helping me get used to snorkel equipment. If it wasn’t for Nicholas guiding me out I may not have had the courage to go. Thank you so much and what an incredible way to see the ocean. We were not only able to see sea turtles, we saw Dori the fish, and a stingray. Was so cool. It was our favorite excursion in Aruba! Sincere thank you Nicholas, Trisha OConnor

      Nathan was great! We saw so many sea turtles, blue tangs, puffer fish and a male Eagle stingray! They said it’s been about a month since they saw him last. It was only three of us and it felt like our own luxury tour! We stayed at Marriot and were able to grab the local Bus

      Turtles with kids

      Michael_G, Apr 2026
      This tour was great. I did this with my 7 year old daughter and she had such a good time. We took a taxi to the location, they show you all the snorkeling gear and gave my daughter a life jacket and a noodle and you walk right into the water. Within 5 minutes we saw some local, tropical fish and our first turtle. We probably saw 7 or 8 turtles throughout the whole tour and some of them came within just a few feet of us when they came to the surface. The tour guide we had was great too. He was super helpful and helped us get a taxi back to our hotel at the end too. I highly recommend this activity to kill a mornin in Aruba.

      What made this experience exceptional was our guide; he was very patient, professional, and knew where to take us so we could see as much as possible. My children lost count of how many turtles and fish we saw. The experience was worth every penny.

      Lots of Turtles!

      Susan_A, Mar 2026
      We had a fantastic time on our turtle snorkeling adventure! Luis (sp?) Was a great guide, very knowledgeable and caring of the sea life. He was careful to gage the skill level of folks in our small group. We saw many turtles! It was amazing to have them come up for air right within our reach although we were very careful not to touch or scare them. Definitely would do another tour with this outfitter.

      If you have but one “swim with the sea turtles” excursion to enjoy while in the Caribbean, this is definitely the one that you will want to take. The guides are great. They are timely, courteous, professional, and there to help you have an amazing day. The groups are very small. Both groups this morning consisted of one couple per guide. We basically had a private tour. We came to see turtles and we saw dozens of them. My wife and I travel the world and this excursion is simply one of the best that we have ever been on.
