Free cancellation on most bookings · Bookings handled by GetYourGuide
Set sail to your snorkeling adventure in Aruba on board the Dolphin catamaran cruise, fully equipped with everything necessary to make the most of your visit to this Caribbean island. Enjoy the open bar with Caribbean cocktails, mixed drinks and juices, while sailing along the beautiful coastline of Aruba with your professional captain and crew. The musical setting will set a Caribbean mood. Your first snorkeling stop is the famous Antilla German freighter wreck. This spectacular 450-foot-long World War II wreck is so big, that it almost raises outside the water. Next, you'll visit the beautiful Catalina Bay where you can explore the shallow reef with plenty of colorful fish to admire. At this stop on the shallow bay, you can have plenty of fun with the recreational activities, including the exciting rope swing and spinning water slide. Before sailing back, the crew will bring you a light lunch while you keep making the most of the open bar.
Check-in at Delphi Watersports in front of the Hyatt Regency towel hut on the beach. Look for the big sign "Delphi Watersports" on the roof. Upon arrival ask for Olga or John who will be wearing 'I Love Aruba' shirts. Open in Google Maps

"Excellent day on the Dolphin II. We choose the 9:30 time slot. It was a great morning excursion and you are back to the beach by lunch. Snorkeling was choppy at the first spot, the shipwreck, but the second stop was calm. Highly recommend for all ages."
"it was so much fun! the wind was a little strong at the ship wreck site so snorkeling was tough but it was so cool seeing the wreck. The staff was super friendly and kind and made good drinks."
"My husband and I had a blast with the crew and other patrons. Delphi sports was easy to find on Palm Beach. Catamaran and snorkeling equipment was in great condition. Snorkeling spots were gorgeous. Music was fantastic, vibes were high. The light lunch was a cup of fruit and half of a tuna wrap. Not a full meal,…"
"We had a great time! The crew were fun, professional and knowledgeable. The boat was clean and food offerings were appropriate and delicious. The snorkeling sites were amazing, and different from each other. Both the rope swing and water slide were fun. We would strongly suggest anyone we know going to Aruba to…"
"Amazing boat ride and great snorkeling spots! The crew were awesome and I loved that it was a smaller boat and not over crowded ! Saw so many turtles!"
