- Piet’s Pier Bar - Why not take the opportunity to go scuba diving during your stay in Aruba? This specific scuba diving course is a great introduction to this popular water sport. Nothing compares to the weightless freedom of diving and with expert instructors on hand. No previous experience is necessary! The boat is built with easy access to the dive platform featuring twin drop down ladders, a two tiered photo table for camera and video equipment, a restroom and fresh water showers for rinsing off. The tour will include two hours of instruction in the pool. The theory session teaches students the basic rules for scuba diving such as dealing with pressure, breathing on scuba, and how to use the equipment. Then you will take a 1.5 hour boat trip where you will do a 1-tank open water dive of approximately 30-40 minutes. The dive boat goes to a shallow reef or wreck and an instructor will accompany you at all times underwater. Dives are in the 20-30’ range. All instruction and necessary equipment is included.

Must do experience on the island! - This is one of the best things I’ve ever done in my life. I really appreciated our dive instructor, as he made us feel safe throughout the entire experience (I was definitely anxious). We saw everything from octopus, to rays, to tons of tropical fish, lobster, shrimp, and more. It was really a magical experience and I highly recommend if you’re on the island. It’s a great way to be introduced to the concept of scuba diving in an environment that takes away a lot of the fear. It was a lovely baby step into diving that I think I’m going to absolutely explore more in the future.

Great dive with a great company - Excellent dive program. The instructor was very kind and explained all the dive procedures before going to the main area of dive. During the dive all the team of Red Sail was very polite and helpful. We super recommend this company.

Awesome experience! - Friendly and engaging instructor. Pool session/exercises were easy to understand and made the dive more engaging. Pointed out different fish during the dive too. Really cool experience overall!

Excellent. Highly recommended. - Excellent. Awesome.
The instructor who taught us and accompanied us at all times, Lisa, is excellent, 10 points. I went with my 16 year old daughter.
First we practiced in the pool and then went to the ocean. Our first scuba diving experience, and it was a great one; we enjoyed it. It is highly recommended.

Great way to spend a few hours... - Great opportunity to give scuba diving a try. I did this 4 years ago and never got certified, but doing it again was just as fun and educational as the first. Lisa was a great instructor and underwater guide to the shipwreck that we explored. a great half day adventure!

Great experience on this tour! - The Dutch guide was super great & knowledgeable. We had a small group on the tour which was nice. They allowed a non-diving companion to come with me for a minimal cost & I really appreciated that.

Horrible and Clowned of All - It's absurd that you sell a package where the instructor doesn't quiz to do because he doesn't speak Spanish and I paid for the tour in Spanish in addition to losing my whole day during my vacation I still didn't do the tour, I would like to know if you will return my money because the operator didn't want to return and they said that vcs you have to return because I paid for you.

Cheated - The diving course for beginners in which we would participate was cancelled fifteen minutes before the start. We were waiting neatly at the indicated spot at 12.30pm. The stated reason was that two instructors were sick. We ourselves think that the organization had too few participants for the course and therefore cancelled the course. Very disappointing.
