They have a very nice boat. On our tour it was only about 1/3 full so there was plenty of space. There a three snorkeling spots where the boat stopped. They could have skipped the first one. The water was very rough and there were no fish. The food was Excellent and they were very liberal with the drinks at the bar. The staff was friendly enough but they did not go out of their way to help or entertain the guests.

The boat, crew, lunch, snorkeling were a fun and awesome tour! The tour information we received online after booking was incorrect. When we arrived at 8:15 to check-in we found out the boat would get underway at 8:30 (not 9:30). The transported us straight to the boat and we made it.

This snorkel adventure was awesome! The took us to 3 different spots to snorkel around the coast of aruba. The best spot in my opinion is the shipwreck. Very colorful fish at ever spot. The lunch buffet was actually very tasty as well. The open bar is always a plus! Overall this was a great experience and I would recommend this trip to anyone.

It was ok. We thought the "nice" lunch closed a little early, as we had to scurry to get our sea trek in AND catch a guided snorkel tour. By the time we finished both, the lunch buffet had closed, and we were left with only the snack shack fried foods to eat. The staff are all very nice, and don't forget to take your camera over to the banana boat with you, the staff on the boat will take pics for you!

This trip was fun, but we should have done the half day instead of the whole day. It was just me and my new husband, no kids. If we had kids, I think it would have been more fun.

The entire adventure was well worth the money. This was one of the best parts of our honeymoon and we believe that the tour is perfect for all types of tourists.

Very nice, great snorkeling and loved the water park. Very disappointed the banana boats weren't running. Food mediocre at best.

The cruise and captain were so full of fun, it was worth it. The only thing worth it was the view, the supper needs improvement.

My boyfriend and I stayed in Aruba for a week. It's definitely worth heading to De Palm Island for a day. Private island to do any watersport you choose or just relax on the beach. We had signed up for sea trek, which is underwater helmet diving. It was a great experience for those who are non-swimmers! The crew were extremely friendly which made the experience even better.

Thanks to all the life guards, they are very responsible and make sure everything is okay before they take you out for the snorkeling tour. Don't expect much from the food and the drinks, but they are acceptable. The only downside is their time management, our pick up was about half an hour late to their island and the hotel drop off bus was again late for more than 30 mins. Everyone was waiting for the bus to come. There are lots of families and everyone is very tired after all. Lots of blue parrot fish, it's worth to see after all.

An absolute blast! We had such an amazing time. There were at most 20 people, some were diving off the side of the boat, chatting with eachother, and the snorkel directors were amazing. It easily could have gotten boring after so many hours, but it was the best day of our week. Drink, relax in the sun, enjoy the snorkeling and fish. Hopefully, we will be back with you soon! Seriously, from recent college graduates, it's worth it, hands down.

Nice day to spend in the beach. Amazing parrotfish. Good value. Foods and drinks all inclusive. Printed voucher must be switched in advance with the original one at the tour operator's office.
