Glide over the ghostly Antilla — the Caribbean's largest WW2 shipwreck — then snorkel with wild sea turtles before a torchlit sunset BBQ on the beach. Aruba's clearest waters, rarest marine life, and a golden-hour feast: utterly unmissable.
What to expect
Board a nimble dive boat at the pier and cross to the Antilla, where 400 feet of sunken steel teem with parrotfish, barracuda, and resident turtles. A certified marine guide leads you through the shallowest, most dramatic sections of the wreck before cruising to a turtle hotspot at Aruba's northwestern tip. As the sun dips, you're welcomed ashore for a catered BBQ with fresh catch, cold Balashi beer, and Aruban keshi yena — all while the sky turns tangerine.
Good to know
Pre-book at least 2 weeks ahead — small-group spots sell out fast in high season. Tour runs ~5 hours; well within all-aboard windows for most Oranjestad calls. Snorkel gear, wetsuit rash guard, and towels included. Non-swimmers can join the BBQ portion only.
