Fun for parents and teen Vinnyy was a wonderful guide. He is a local and was happy to answer questions about the island and the reef. He was cheerful, knowledgeable and fun. We spent about 50 minutes in the water before a couple of us got too cold to continue. The scooters added a fun element to normal snorkeling. We saw lots of reef and fish. Highly recommend.

Scooters in the ocean! This was so much fun. We had the best time ever. The men were so informative focused on safety, t This was way better than snorkeling. We got to go to a shipwreck learned how to dive deep with the scooters saw the most beautiful colored fish in coral and how the ocean goes down deep it was just the most beautiful experience.

10-Star Experience with Aruba Bob’s—Unforgettable for Our Entire Family If I could give 10 stars, I would. Aruba Bob’s didn’t just meet expectations—they completely redefined them. From the moment we booked, we knew we were in good hands. Carolina in the office was incredible—communicating with us via email and WhatsApp before we even arrived, and accommodating every question and detail (especially since international calling wasn’t an option for me). She made everything seamless and stress-free. PADI Training Our experience kicked off with my 11-year-old daughter completing her PADI Jr. Open Water certification with Coco—and WOW. Coco is the kind of instructor every mom hopes for: energetic, encouraging, clear, and genuinely caring. His enthusiasm is contagious, and he has a gift for making people feel confident, safe, and excited. My daughter adored him—and so did I. Family Snorkeling at Mangel Halto Next, our entire crew—ranging from age 10 to 81—went snorkeling at Mangel Halto with Lui and Quinten. Everyone had a blast, especially using the DPVs (underwater scooters), which made the experience extra fun and unique (they take all the work out of snorkeling and leave just the fun!). When my 10-year-old niece got cold, Lui immediately took her and my mom back to shore, making sure they were warm, comfortable, and still felt like VIPs. He then returned on a kayak to keep watch over us—though Quinten had everything well under control. Two-Tank Boat Dive We then did a two-tank boat dive with Coco and Vinny at the Antilla wreck and Arashi Reef—absolutely breathtaking. Coco continued working with my daughter to complete her certification, while Vinny guided the rest of us (my brother, myself, and two of his friends). Vinny was an excellent guide, and I felt completely at ease with him. We saw everything—schools of fish, sea turtles, and incredible reef life—and even managed to snag some real treasure from the wreck. It was the kind of diving you dream about. Night Dive If you’ve never done a night dive, DO IT—and do it with Aruba Bob’s. My brother and I went out with Coco at Mangel Halto, and it was one of the most amazing underwater experiences I’ve ever had. We saw an octopus, sleeping fish, crabs, lobsters, a moray eel, and more—it felt like entering a completely different world. Since it was my first night dive, Coco took extra time to make sure I was comfortable and confident before we got in the water, walking me through what to expect. After all that, we randomly ran into Coco later as he was coming in from a boat dive when we took the girls tubing, and he stopped and chatted with us, and even recommended an amazing local burger joint to us. Final Thoughts These experiences were unforgettable for our entire family. Every person we interacted with at Aruba Bob’s was professional, kind, fun, and genuinely invested in making our trip special. They handled a large, multi-generational group (ages 10–81!) with ease, making everyone feel included, safe, and important. We are beyond grateful we chose Aruba Bob’s—and we wouldn’t consider diving with anyone else. Book with them. Seriously—you won’t regret it.

Snorkel The guys were awesome, knowledgeable, and we had a great experience. Very down to earth, fun personable guys. 10/10

Best adventure ever in Aruba We had the best experience ever snorkeling out to the reef and sunken ship with Quentin. He was absolutely amazing. Aruba bobs was so friendly and accommodating. The best part was that it was all filmed with photos and video emailed to us that night. Quentin’s photos were absolutely amazing. I am blowing one up huge! Thank you, Quentin, I am the one that had to protect my eyes.

Wonderful snorkeling adventure. Fabulous snorkeling excursion with KoKo! He was extremely helpful and it was the best snorkeling experience on our Caribbean cruise! The fish and coral were beautiful at Mangel Halto Beach...and the Sea Scooters were a definite plus! Highly recommend Aruba Bob's Snorkel.

Didn’t get to the activity-bummed We didn’t make it to the place. Tried but transportation couldn’t get us there in time. It’s not their fault but I don’t know how to be refunded if possible.

Great experience Mark from Aruba Bob’s Snorkel and Scuba was fantastic! He is a true servant and takes great care of his customers! We had lots of fun and saw some beautiful fish! Thanks Mark!!

Beautiful Reef Views and Fantastic Guides Our hosts (Coco and Martina) were just excellent! They provided simple instructions and were friendly and understanding - very relaxed atmosphere. Our group was small (less than 10 people) and the snorkeling trip took about 3 hours. For not snorkeling very often, I thought the views of the reef and the all of the wildlife were gorgeous. Given that this area (Mangel Halto) has some current to it, it is great to have the scooter with you to get around. I've heard from others that have snorkeled here without scooters and it can be challenging. Families, newly weds, and couples will all enjoy this especially if you have never done something like this. The pictures taken by the guides were a nice keep sake. All around, this was one of our favorite activities.

Sea scooter tour Great tour guide, very friendly! Awesome experience
