Catalina Bay and Antilla Ship Wreck Snorkel Cruise
Head out to the most famous snorkel spot in Aruba, "the Antilla Ship Wreck", aboard a luxury catamaran. Dip your mask underwater, kick your fins, and discover the 400-foot (122 meters) long wreck, which is now home to a variety of tropical fish and colorful coral. Along the way, you'll also stop at Catalina Bay - ideal for beginner snorkelers.
At Catalina Bay, a nice shallow area ideal for those who have not snorkeled in a long time, you will explore the shallow waters and enjoy a variety of colorful tropical fish and several species of corals.
Then onto the famous Antilla Ship Wreck, a 400 ft. (122 meters) long German freighter resting in 60 ft. (18 meters) of water. When the Germans invaded Holland during World War ll, this German freighter was scuttled by its Captain on purpose to avoid confiscation by the Dutch in Aruba. The wreck is now the new home to exotic fish and corals. Fish include: The Parrot Fish, Barracudas, Fresh Angel Fish, Yellow Tail Snapper, Grunt, Blue Tang, Butterfly Fish, Green Moray , Puffer Fish, Sergeant Mayor, Southern Stingray, Queen Flounder, Stoplight Parrotfish and Trumpet Fish.
The catamaran has a top speed of 35 miles per hour in Aruba's famous winds, but still offers an very stable ride. It also features two marine bathrooms, two sunning nets, plenty of seating space, stereo music and a fully stocked bar. A special swimming ladder makes it easy for passengers to step into the water for snorkeling. A friendly crew is always on hand to make the sail a wonderful experience.
This 3 hour excursion also includes an open bar, snorkeling equipment and instructions.
