We also dove with Clive Paula several years ago and recommend him very highly. Don't know what you mean by "strict," but we did not find him the least bit unpleasant. He is a native Aruban and is able to talk very knowledgeably about the island, its history and culture. He is also a great diver and it was a joy to watch him in the water. We primarily dove reefs with him, but the Antilla Wreck is not to be missed - it's a 450' ship with large swim throughs. 2 of us did our first night dive with Clive at an airplane wreck that was very interesting. We found the Aruban people to be very pleasant and the island is beautiful - not a lot of rainfall, so it is fairly arrid. Several large grocery stores just like in the U.S. and lots of good restaurants and shops.
