Diving Aruba

[snownow]

We have a stop coming up in Aruba (January). Any thoughts on dive shops? Dive sites?  I know there are several wrecks, and a few planes along with reef diving. We are in port 8 to 8 so a long day. Most of the dive shops online list 9am start. I know thats hard with cruisers. So... any tips on dive shops you have used while on a cruise?

I dived with Happy Divers in Aruba. Jeffery will pick up/drop off at the port. No more than 6 divers on his boat.  The Antilla wreck is worth diving.

Yep.  I'll be there in January myself on the Celebrity Summit.  Happy Divers is the answer.

One thing: Jeffrey can take a few days to reply to emails.  If you have trouble making contact, use the link in my signature to email me, and I'll try to get him for you.

I have been to Aruba a few times, and been diving with JADS - great if you are diving on the south side of the island. Small groups both times. 

Also been with Red Sail, very convenient if you want to dive on the west coast. Also great people.

I've always had a good time, but the vis can be not so great at times.
