Rare astridwilson Posted March 13, 2018 #1 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Cruising in September this year and have a one day stop here. Interested in recommendations for a snorkeling beach that we can do on our own without an excursion or a shore dive location. Experienced snorkelers and divers. Strong swimmers. Also need to know if we would be better to rent a car of just rely on taxis if we end up beach hopping??Prefer a shore dive. Arriving in Oranjestad, Aruba, at 9AM and want to be back on boat by 6PM. Never been here but have shore dived in Bonaire and loved it, of course that was a week’s stay not a one-day cruise stop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njm5378 Posted March 14, 2018 #2 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Boca Catalina or Malmok are easy shore dive sites. Most of the regular tours stop there. If you have a swim vest you could try to swim to the Antilla wreck. It is a jaunt but we saw some people do it. You can take the Arubus to either beach.

Rare Keith1010 Posted March 14, 2018 #3 Share Posted March 14, 2018 I would add that if you want to beach hop you may want to just rent a car. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare astridwilson Posted March 15, 2018 Author #4 Share Posted March 15, 2018 you said "Boca Catalina or Malmok are easy shore dive sites. Most of the regular tours stop there." do you mean snorkel tour stops or scuba diving shops? I question because most folks don't refer to dive shops as regular tours.
