Snorkeling: The coral reef just off De Palm Island is one of Aruba's most spectacular snorkel sites. There's no easier way to catch a glimpse of the spectacular marine life of the Caribbean, and in particular, the stunning Blue Parrot Fish that are endemic to Aruba. Great snorkeling can be had in both waist-high and deeper waters. All snorkel gear is provided, as well as instruction. Complimentary snorkel tours of the reef are offered twice daily. |

Sea Trek Underwater Helmet Walk: You won't want to miss this delightful underwater experience available nowhere else on Aruba. Participants don specially designed diving helmets to tread the seafloor on a custom 375-foot walkway, 20 feet below the surface. Even non-swimmers and those who don't snorkel can feed a bevy of colorful tropical fish, view a sunken Cessna 414 airplane, and pose for a photograph while sitting at the underwater Sea Trek Café. Please note that a surcharge for Sea Trek applies. |
