Breath taking scuba experience
This is a must do when visiting Aruba. We were taken to Mangel Halto beach for a 9am scuba. It makes you feel like you are in secret beach location. Be prepared to see every fish. Our guide Jeff took us on a amazing route passing over many reef areas deep and shallow. I have been scuba a few times and I have to say this was my best experience. The motorized propeller made it so you were able to see so much with little effort and great for all experience levels. Thank you again Jeff and the crew of Aruba bobs that made us feel very welcome comfortable and cared for
Fun!
The people who work there are super helpful, cool, and make sure that you feel comfortable in whichever activity you are there for. Zander was our guide for snorkeling, and I let him know that even though I’ve done it, I still get scarred while snorkeling. He went beyond and gave me a life vest even though most people just wear a wet suit to float. In addition, we did practice exercises on shallow water of floating and what to do when you are in the ocean and need to stop. He was able to give me the confidence I needed, and I appreciate his attentiveness to our safety. I would recommend that people go to Aruba Bob!
Great experience, definitely recommend!
This was so great! I was nervous, but Coco and the crew did everything to make sure I was OK. If you want to go dive for the first time, I would advise you to book your dive here. Due to the chill vibes and good energy our experience with diving was fantastic 😁🏖🤿
Do this tour
An excellent tour and well worth the money. My wife was very nervous about doing it since she is not a strong swimmer and Coco was super with her. She felt safe the entire time and using the scooters made a huge difference. It was an awesome time and I just can't say enough good things about them, from arranging the transportation to the time in the water our group was well looked after. My children are going down in 5 months and I am strongly suggesting they also do the tour.
Safe and enjoyable family snorkel trip with Coco
We booked a private snorkel trip in January for the four of us; our college-age kids aren't super-confident swimmers, and we wanted to be able to get to healthy reef without worrying about currents. It was one of our trip "splurges" but completely worth it. A major bonus was that Coco could also point out sea life we for sure would've missed--and take great photos so we could both live in the moment and look back later. And the wetsuits were a huge plus (we didn't pack any, and we would've gotten cold after that amount of time in the water). And Coco was just so enjoyable to spend the time with too, super-nice guy!
Do it for sure
Seriously, this is a super fun experience. We arrived on. Cruise ship and the entire experience was easy and interesting. Scuba Bob has it all together. Up to date equipment, safety first, adapted to your level of experience, interesting dive guides. Do it !

A Top Aruba Must-Do
This hour and a half reef tour was a highlight of our trip to Aruba. Big shout out to Coco our snorkeling guide who was so calming a presence and knowledgeable that he helped my wife, who gets claustrophobic in a mask, make it all the way through a 90 minute tour (when I had only been able to get her to snorkel for 20 to 30 minutes previously). For those of you old enough to remember what reefs used to look like several decades ago, and are deeply saddened by most of those in the Caribbean that are only 15 to 20% alive, this one was more like 30 to 40% alive. There were lots of beautiful fish, and a few exotic sightings like a baby moray eel, sea caterpillar, sea slug, lobster, and a few others. Coco took fabulous shots of all those and more as part of the package. The underwater scooters were very easy to use, and necessary given the current. We’d do this again in a heartbeat (and that’s saying a lot coming from my wife).

Amazing Snorkeling Experience
This was an amazing experience! We did a private snorkeling tour with Xander. He was an exceptional guide and made us all feel comfortable in the water. My kids are 10 and 12 and they loved it. The power scooters let us see much more than we would have been able to without them. And we have 200 pictures from the trip that he took and shared with us. Just amazing! Highly recommended!

Great Snorkeling w/ Personal Touch
My wife & I (50 &51) did the group snorkel tour. Our guide was Xander(XXX), & he took great care of us to ensure we had a great experience. Don't hesitate to book, using the battery powered devices to propel you through the water was a first for us & truly is very simple & easy. They provide a wet suit & foot booties so you stay warm. We covered a lot of ground and saw a lot of fish, coral, etc. Thank you Xander.

Amazing Experience
This was an incredible experience. The guides were fun, knowledgeable, and very helpful. We saw gorgeous reefs and sea life, and we got amazing pictures of our experience afterwards. Tip- wear the wetsuit, as the water can be cold.

Amazing and beautiful dive
We did a refreshment dive with Lui, who was very energetic and fun. We were a bit nervous because we didnt dive for some years, but Lui made us feel secure and safe. The dive itself was amazing and beautiful!

Best snorkeling for beginners
This is THE PLACE FOR SNORKELING, especially if you haven’t snorkeled before!! Aruba Bob Snorkeling & Scuba is the only tour that uses a motorized propellor to help guide and pull you wherever you want to go. It was so easy to use! Coco our guide was personable, knowledgeable and an overall cool guy. Totally recommend this place.
An unforgettable experience
An amazing experience! The hand-held scooters are easy to use and give such a cool boost to the snorkeling experience. We trekked through a few miles of the area that’s considered one of the top snorkeling spots in Aruba — saw a huge variety of coral and marine life, and got lots of photos for the memories. Loved being able to experience so much beauty without having to get on a boat. Highly recommend!

Very friendly staff. The guide was very knowledgeable of the terrain and guided me to interesting coral and wreck sites. In addition for no extra cost he provided hundreds of great photos of the experience. The jets provided enabled us to cover a lot more ground. Highly recommended!

Awesome Experience
Our snorkeling experience was really awesome in mid-December.
I enjoyed the experience so much that I signed up for PADI diving certifications at a local diving club. I definitely plan on coming back at some point.
