Frequently asked questions
Here you can find the frequently asked questions about a snorkeling tour Aruba. If you have more questions feel free to get in touch with us!
Are videos included in the price?
Yes! We want you to enjoy the moment. Every snorkeling tour includes a free video. Our guides use professional cameras to capture high-quality snapshots of your underwater experience and the marine life we encounter.
Are turtle sightings guaranteed?
While they are wild animals, we know their favorite grazing spots so well that we can confidently guarantee sightings on our Turtle Spotting Adventure. By approaching quietly from the shore, we ensure the turtles stay calm and natural around us.
I am not a strong swimmer. Can I still join?
Absolutely. Our Turtle Spotting and Mangel Halto Reef tours are beginner-friendly and take place in shallow water (2-4m). However, our Drift Snorkeling tour is exclusively for confident swimmers, as it involves deeper water and stronger currents.
Why do you start from the beach instead of a boat?
Shore-based snorkeling is much more intimate and eco-friendly. Boats and large groups often scare away marine life with engine noise. By walking in quietly from the beach, we get much closer to animals like turtles and rays without disturbing their natural behavior.
What makes Mangel Halto the best spot?
Mangel Halto is home to Aruba’s healthiest coral reef system. It offers incredible diversity, from mangroves to deep drop-offs. We navigate you to “hidden gems” and secret spots that most tourists never find, ensuring a unique and colorful experience.
Is snorkeling gear provided?
Yes, we provide all the necessary high-quality equipment: mask, snorkel, and fins. Our gear is professionally maintained and thoroughly sanitized after every use for your safety and comfort.
What is “Drift Snorkeling”?
Drift snorkeling is like flying underwater. We enter where the current is strongest and let the ocean glide us effortlessly over miles of pristine coral. It covers the most distance with the least effort, but requires you to be a confident swimmer in deeper water.
