    Sounds like you had a wonderful experience!  Was the snorkeling portion from a boat or beach? If from beach, do you remember the name of the beach?  We were last in Curacao in 2018 but so much has change since then. We'll be there again in October, so any info you can offer is greatly appreciated - TIA 🙂

    We went to Playa Piscado for snorkeling.  It was from the beach, rocky entry but we went when it wasn't as busy and lots of sea turtles!  Saw so many other fish also and an octopus!  You can specify what beaches, we left it to her given our group (13, 16 year old who were newer to snorkeling and us - we had been many times).  We also went to Kokomo beach and enjoyed snorkeling there (no turtles but lots of fish!).  Great beach to kick back and relax on with some beers =).

  2. We had a great time using Around Aruba open air jeep tour.  Our guide was a retired fire fighter on Aruba and made sure that we had a great time, learned a lot of the history of the island and stayed safe while doing it!  You can customize your tour, we weren't sure what to choose - so they did it for us.  We learned a lot and saw SOOOO much of the island!

  3. We booked a private tour via Viator with Samurai Curacao, we had an AMAZING TIME!  Tanya was our guide and she did a fantastic job of making sure we got to experience the island, learn about the culture and snorkel to our hearts desire.  I cannot recommend this company enough, it made such an impact and was truly the highlight of our vacation.  Snorkeled with: Sea Turtles, Octopus, more beautiful fish species than I can count but going when it wasn't crowded with the sea turtles was incredible!

     

    Tip - bring a waterproof sleeve and take picts with your cell.  My waterproof camera died and I should have just used one of those sleeves!

    Oh and Welcome to Cruise Critic 

     

    Noticed you joined in 2015 and today is your first post? long time looker for sure

    Yea, that's really weird because I've used this site for each of our cruises and posted reviews.  It's been 2 years since we were on one but should have had ones before that.  I thought maybe they just cleared it after a certain timeframe!
