I will do it again for sure!! - We absolutely loved this! The staff is excellent and the snorkeling was great. You had time at each stop to really enjoy and look around. Food was also really good. There were all ages on the boat and I felt safe and comfortable the entire time. My son loved jumping off the boat at stops. We will do this again for sure!!

Great way to start your day with an incredible lunch - Enjoyed that the tour starts at the pier near our hotel and that there was a shop there so we could get a few items that were useful during our trip. Loved the ship wreck, we opted to SNUBA there. Loved the coral area, the middle stop was more about swimming as there was not much to see. The staff were very good at keeping us safe and making sure we were having a good time. After our stops we were offered lunch, I was expecting something like a sandwich or something but they pulled these heated trays out of a box and we had the most amazing lunch. Would highly recommend and it was cool to try SNUBA as well but either way the trip is great.

Great excursion! - We had an excellent time on this excursion! 80 people on the boat. Snacks and drinks included. We snorkeled at a shipwreck and a turtle spot where they were munching on the seaweed. We paid a little extra to do the snuba at the third spot which was a coral reef. I would highly recommend if you have never been scuba diving. It was a good transitional experience. Our guide took a group of 4 of us. We had a quick lesson and trial with the breathers, and then we traveled 20 feet under the surface to see many fish. We even got to hold a starfish!

DON'T MISS IT, DO IT! - Caesar was a tremendous host and so much fun! My nieces and I had a wonderful day on this beautiful catamaran. We LOVED it and highly recommend Caesar and the entire crew. The snorkeling stops were beautiful, the food was great and the drinks were tasty and flowed freely.

Do not pass up this experience - We were able to snorkel with sea turtles, which we had tried to do earlier in our trip, but were unsuccessful. The crew made the experience super fun and kept the energy up the whole time. We are not huge on group activities, however, this experience allowed my husband and I to explore in a way that was still intimate while being on a boat with 81 other people. The drinks and food included were way better than we expected. This experience was definitely worth the cost.

Teenagers said ‘thanks Mom!” - Great outing for our first time in Aruba and first time snorkeling! Here for our 25th anniversary with our teenagers. All the stops were amazing, the buffet lunch was like being at a high end restaurant, the crew led by Caezar was upbeat, fun and helpful in every way. We wanted to book another outing with this crew as soon as it ended. Our kids 15, and 19 raved about the day saying it went too fast which it did. They also thanked us parents for booking it. Thank you for the great memories.

Morningnorkel S - On May 31 we boarded the catamaran for snorkelling from 9am until 1pm. The crew - Captain Randy, Cesar and Dayron are happy to greet you. You have 45 minutes to snorkel at each stop - Shipwreck, 2nd stop Turtles - 3rd stop fish. The lunch is very good and there are lots of beverages for everyone. If you want go for the ride, that's fine too. This is the second time we have done this excursion, the snorkelling is great and the crew keeps you informed and will answer any question you have. We recommend this exclusion. Thanks again gentleman.

DePalm All Day Catamaran Snorkel - Amazing snorkel trip. Caesar and Crew were fun and engaging. The stars of the catamaran trip were the hundreds of fish (lots of schools that swim all around you), multiple green turtles, a stingray, an eel, Flying Gurnards, a Peacock Flounder who was expertly camouflaged on top of some rocks/corals, and the breathtaking Antilla Wreck. Highly recommend this tour. Boarding the catamaran is super easy as you get on via a dock and not in the ocean!
