Scuba Diving
If you wish to learn how to dive, take a Resort Certification
Scuba Diving Course so as not to miss out on the beauty,
not to mention excitement, of Aruba's underwater world.
Divers with Open Water Certification can enjoy the many
diving sites Aruba has to offer; go wall diving, reef diving, or
explore wrecks sunk during World War II. If a visitor prefers
to remain close to the surface and snorkel, they may enjoy
not only the beauty of the coral formations, but also the
wreck sites with a visibility, at some sites, of 100 feet.
Snorkel / Snuba Diving
Most day cruises include snorkelling as a part of
their itnerary. Mask, fins and snorkels are supplied
and boats will usually anchor near a large German
tanker that was sunk just offshore.
Go beyond snorkeling
and try "SNUBA"
(SNorkeling + scUBA).
Air tanks float on rafts on
the ocean and several 20
ft air hoses provide
oxygen to the swimmer
below the surface.
The hoses permit underwater explorers as young
as eight years old to safely descend to a depth of
20 feet with the aid of a SNUBA-instructor, allowing
for unique views of colorful fish and intriguing coral
formations.
