Captain Vito is the Best!! - Chartering with Captain Vito was one of the highlights of our trip to Aruba. In fact, we did two charters with Captain Vito because the first was so excellent. This was the first trip to Aruba for my wife and me and we wanted to have an experienced person with us when we went snorkeling rather than trying to find out where to go on our own. We thought a 2-hour snorkeling charter would help us learn the ropes. On our first charter we went to the north side of the island and snorkeled over two shipwrecks and at Boca Catalina. Out on the wrecks we saw a sea turtle, a larger grouper, a puffer fish and a school of barracuda (plus too many smaller fish to name). Captain Vito came with us into the water and was our guide making us very comfortable in the deep water. In the shallower water of Boca Catalina we went in the water on our own with the Yamaha water sleds and had a terrific time seeing the many smaller fish close-up. We enjoyed our trip so much that we decided to do a 4-hour charter the next day to the south side of the island and snorkel at Mangel Halto. We first snorkeled on the offshore reef which Captain Vito told us was more difficult to reach. It was a bit of a challenge to snorkel out to the reef due to the current but the coral and fish we saw were worth the effort. Captain Vito came into the water with us on this swim as well which was helpful to show us around the reef. The challenge of the swim out became a benefit when we finished because the current pushed us back to the boat. The snorkeling near the shore at Mangel Halto was also wonderful. We used the sleds again and spent an hour in the water with a wide variety of fish (parrot fish, angel fish, tangs, sergeant major fish, etc.). The visibility in the water on the south side of the island was terrific. Captain Vito really helped us to have an amazing experience. The equipment we had for these charters was first rate. I have never been on a charter boat that was as clean and as well-kept as his boat. Captain Vito made this an adventure that we plan to repeat.

Ask For Vito- Awesome Captain - Absolutely loved our trip boat charter and our Captain, Vito. We went for a 2 hour trip, touring coastline on the island and snorkeling. Vito provided an amazing experience and we highly recommend you ask for him when considering your next charter excursion.

Professional/Personable Private Charter - Our family of 4 had a such a wonderful time touring and snorkeling with Captain Vito that we booked a second charter 3 days later. Snorkeled wrecks, toured the Aruba coast, watched airplanes land as we floated just off the end of the runway, and anchored for lunch. Excellent gear, brand new boat, and the excellent leadership of Captain Vito. We can't wait to return. Highly recommended!

Absolutely wonderful boat ride. - My family and I went out on a 2 hour pontoon boat ride with Captain Vito. He took us to Catalina to snorkel and then to see the ship wreck. We were able to see so much beautiful sea life. Captain Vito was beyond amazing. He was so accommodating and relaxed. He exceeded our expectations. The boat was clean and stocked with a cooler full of cold water and soda. We plan on going on another boat ride before we leave the island. If you plan on going snorkeling or any other sea adventure, you must visit Frank’s and ask for Vito specifically.
