An Aruba must do! 10/10 - I highly recommend Red Sail as a snorkeling catamaran trip!!
The captain and crew were amazing. They were funny, informative, and friendly! The food and drinks were 10/10.
The boat was clean and did not feel overcrowded. I will definitely book them for my next visit!

Great excursion!! - Deion, Joshua and Rich were amazing! Professional, friendly, funny, skilled. The snorkel spots were wonderful, we saw several sea turtles. The sunken German ship was really cool and kind of eerie and the food was delicious!!! I would definitely do this again and recommend to anyone!!

Family snorkel adventure - Had a wonderful day. Crew was amazing and very friendly. Boat was clean and safe. Saw sea turtles up close. Not far from shore if the deep waters freak you out. Good family friendly snorkel trip.

Crew was great and water... - Crew was great and water was amazing! Especially enjoyed snorkeling over the wreck - only thing that would've made it better was to see a turtle...

It's worth the cost - Great experience. Thanks to JDrick and his crew from Rumba for the wonderful morning. We were able to see a multitude of fish and the shipwreck. The meal served on the boat was good and the cocktails were delicious. Thank you again!

Amazing snorkel views and amazing crew - Well worth the money! Super friendly captain and crew. 3 beautiful snorkel spots, though the area where the shipwreck is can be intimidating with the current strength, but still amazing. Snorkel, fins, and float vest avalible if you need. Drinks were good, and the lunch was phenomenal! Fish, meat, salad, pasta, and even cupcakes very good without being over-filling.
I will note there were some rather inconsiderate teen members and parents who sat behind us that left their belongings and lunch trash everywhere (along with spilled drinks) that the crew took care of without a complaint. I felt bad for the crew, but they were amazing!
HIGHLY recommend!

Beautiful snorkeling.... - Beautiful snorkeling. Lunch was delicious and drinks plentiful. This was our second year doing this tour. Last year it was more enjoyable due to less people on the catamaran. It was way too crowded this year which made it tough to eat. Getting into the water at first stop took forever as everyone had to get their snorkel and blow up their life jackets . I would think this could have been done prior to get to the stop.
Staff was personable but last year crew a lot more fun.
Overall it was enjoyable. Nothing major . You are in Aruba so all is good.
