Fantastic Dive Experience!

5.00Fantastic experience with Aruba Watersports Center on a two-tank dive! The small group size made for a relaxed and personalized trip. Ronnie was an outstanding instructor - attentive, knowledgeable, engaging, and a talented underwater videographer. The captain was equally friendly and professional. Both went above and beyond to make the dive safe, fun, and memorable. I highly recommend Aruba Watersports Center and will definitely dive with them again!

5.00Had three dives with Ronny- it was a lot of fun. He is very professional. I have been diving for 18 years but he gave me some tips I didn’t know before. Saw lots of turtles, two shipwrecks, some airplanes, a ray, few large morenas, an octopus, tons of fish. The boat is comfortable and the captain, Ryan, was also very fun and nice.
Aruba, Ronnie

5.00We had an overall amazing experience. Our guide Ronnie was terrific. Ahead of each dive he provided good details of the route we were to take and what we should look out for. On the first dive we had a great time swimming through the Antilla shipwreck and seeing all the sea life on and around the ship. Ronnie guided us through many pash throughs in the wreckage make the experience that much more immersive. On the second dive we seemed to be constantly surrounded by turtles and Ronnie provided some great GoPro footage of us for us to take back. Overall would recommend the trip to anyone looking for an approachable open water dive and great guides!
