Your maritime journey begins at the Octopus Aruba beach hut where you board your catamaran to begin your afternoon sailing adventure along the Aruban coastline. Make two snorkel stops: the first is the legendary shipwreck 'Antilla,' a 1939 German freighter sunken during World War II. Spend 45 minutes exploring this intact underwater marvel, delving into its historical significance and captivating marine life. The second stop is at Malmok Reef, situated in the shallow waters of Catalina Bay where you can spot angelfish, damsel fish, octopuses, sea fans, and coral in these pristine waters. As you explore, savor refreshing drinks from the open bar and indulge in a sandwich lunch provided onboard. The experience concludes back at the Octopus Aruba beach hut.

Boarding takes place via a spacious shuttle boat (for up to 15 people) that transports guests to the catamaran. This shuttle, like all our vessels, undergoes inspection every six months to ensure safety and quality. From the beach hut (where check-in takes place), it’s a short 30-meter/ 98 foot ride to the catamaran. This area of the sea is as calm as a lake, with little to no waves throughout the year
