So fun. Sam and the whole crew were so good at their job. They were helpful with snorkelling equipment, Sam offered to take our photo, and we loved having the open bar. We swam right beside a sea turtle over the shipwreck- so amazing.

Boris_F, Apr 2024

Very good and fun snorkeling trip. The crew were great in explaining and everything and the experience was great.

Ah, the tranquility of snorkeling!

Sylvie_S, Apr 2024

This tour was simple and fun. Our hosts were kind and kept us safe. Drinks were flowing and my pina colada was cold and delicious. I was worried this would feel very touristy, but once you get snorkeling in the sea, all is meditative and quiet. I loved the snorkeling opportunities. Highly recommended, get out in the ocean as part of your vacation!

Amazing!

Great trip!!! Great snorkeling the closer to the beach you go. Big rocks, big fish, lots of variety of fish to see. Drinks were quality and not cheap crap. Would definitely recommend this trip.

Adventurous experience

Heidi_M, Feb 2024

We participated twice! The first sailing/snorkeling was cut short due to the waves/swell - nature! Pelican staff went above and beyond to reschedule us to a later trip. This took place at the tail end of the westerly winds causing unusual swells. Even though pelican staff altered the course of the second cruise, we experienced somewhat rough conditions. Staff on both cruises as well as office were very friendly. Overall they offer a fun experience, especially for individuals with prior snorkeling experience.

Response from Host, Feb 2024

Thank you for your feedback, and we appreciate your understanding regarding the challenges posed by nature, such as the unusual swells during the westerly winds. We're delighted that despite the conditions, you still found our staff friendly and enjoyed the overall experience. We strive to provide a fun and enjoyable time for all our participants. Your positive comments mean a lot to us, and we hope to welcome you back for smoother sails and more memorable adventures in the future!

Great time Feb 7 2024

Ricky_P, Feb 2024

Everything was phenomenal from Jackie and the crew to the whole experience 🙌 it's a must do when in aruba

Response from Host, Feb 2024

I'm delighted to hear that you had a phenomenal experience with Jackie and the crew! It sounds like it's indeed a must-do when in Aruba. If you have any highlights or specific aspects of the experience that stood out to you, feel free to share them!

Fun Experience!

debjohnson7, Dec 2023

We are glad we did this experience! It was a fun and different way to see Aruba. The staff was engaging, safety-conscious and friendly. Many did the snorkeling where it was more shallow off the shore, but not as many did it where the shipwreck was, where the water was deeper and more rough with a current. Not everyone that snorkeled over the shipwreck was able to see it. Despite that, it was fun and we would do it again!

Response from Host, Dec 2023

We look forward to welcoming you back for another exciting adventure.

Nice Afternoon Snorkeling Trip

Mark_B, Dec 2023

Great staff and comfortable catamaran. First stop was nice and could see lots of colorful fish. Second stop was very rough and I could not get to the ship wreck. That was disappointing. Unlimited drinks and nice snacks.

Response from Host, Dec 2023

Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We're glad to hear you enjoyed the great staff and comfortable catamaran. It's disappointing to learn about the challenges during the second stop, preventing you from reaching the shipwreck. We appreciate your understanding and are pleased you could still enjoy unlimited drinks and nice snacks. Your comments are valuable, and we hope to have the opportunity to enhance your experience in the future.
