Night/Shore Diving in Aruba

[rgilkes]

Hey Everybody,

I am going to be in Aruba on business in December and I am trying to work in some diving around my work schedule. There is only one day that I have a full day off and I've identified a charter I am going to spend the day with. For the the other days, I'd like to get in some night dives and/or shore diving to maximize my dive time.

Any suggestions for locations or shops to shore dive with (I'm solo so I would need to find a buddy)? Also, any suggestions on good charters for night diving or charters that run twice a day (afternoon trip)?

Thanks in advance!

Unlike its sister islands Aruba isn't really known for its shore diving. Its been years but at the time this was the best option...

Scuba Shore Diving Site Page for: Mangel Halto Reef of Aruba, ABC Islands

In all honesty, snorkeling is probably the best option for shore dives in Aruba. But check with your dive op charter. They may have better or at least more up to date info.

Thanks for the help. I'll see if I can dig up some more info on the site. Wish I had the time to jump to Curacao or Bonaire.
