Book your next adventure with Ocean Encounters Aruba and enjoy a memorable day exploring Aruba’s beautiful coastline and hidden gems off the beaten path. Your guides, Captain Carl and Captain Bibi, bring years of professional experience to ensure your family has a safe, fun, and personalized experience on the water.

Step aboard a comfortable 26' center console equipped with a Bimini top, giving you the choice to relax in the shade or soak up the sun throughout your trip. The boat carries up to 8 passengers, making it perfect for families and groups of all ages. Depending on the number of hours you book, your trip can take you along Aruba’s southeast coast, the northwest coast, or even both - always cruising close to the island’s calm, scenic shoreline.

Ocean Encounters Aruba tailors every outing to your family’s interests. You can swim, snorkel, relax, enjoy the views, or simply cruise the coastline. For guests who want to add a bit of fishing excitement, you may request light bottom fishing or coastal trolling. These near‑shore options keep the experience enjoyable and comfortable for everyone, without the rough conditions of deep‑sea fishing. Rods and reels are not included, so feel free to bring your own or ask the captain about rental options. You can also inquire about bait and lures.

To make the most of your day, bring essentials like sunglasses, non‑spray sunblock, and towels. You’re welcome to bring additional drinks and snacks. However, Ocean Encounters Aruba provides cold bottled water, sodas, basket of fresh fruit and snacks, and for tours longer than 4 hours, you’ll enjoy a customized light lunch prepared to keep your family refreshed throughout the trip.

Treat yourself and your loved ones to a relaxing, fun‑filled day on the water with Ocean Encounters Aruba.
