Unforgettable experience - We dived with Ronny, it was our first experience and it was spectacular.
Ronny was there to help us at all times and that gave us security and confidence.
It's an experience you should do, more than recommend!

Exceptional service and safety - My husband and I dove the Antilla wreck and Arashi Reef with diver Ronny and Capt. Nel March 31, ‘26. My husband is an experienced diver, but this was my 6th dive and unfortunately I get seasick.
1. I’ve not had as kind and gentle a boat captain as Nel. I’m not saying the others I’ve had were bad—Nel was just super helpful getting me back on the boat with heavy gear and vomiting! I don’t have words to describe my appreciation.
2. Ronny was amazing. He was great with the junior divers that were with us. He was so helpful to me. He made sure everyone was safe AND took videos of our experiences. FOR FREE!!!! What?!?
3. Ronny’s instructions and facial expressions were so easily understood and helpful. I always knew what he wanted me to do—even though I’m a newbie.
4. Ronny knows where all the cool stuff live. Octopus, stingray, infant lion fish, scorpion fish, eels, green sea turtles and so many beautiful fish and coral.

Great crew all around. Awesome dive site and dive master! - We are so glad we found this company. We stayed at the Hyatt, just a little bit down the beach (totally walkable) and there was a Red Sail scuba diving center there but they just didn't take the time to answer our questions about the dive trip. So we walked over to Aruba Watersports Center and Shamira and Eugene were very helpful so we scheduled with them as their customer service was much better. We opted to book the Antilla wreck site and Arushi reef. Our dive master was Ronnie and he was awesome. He had his work cut out for him, I think we had about 8 divers on our day, most with 10 or less total dives and a couple of them teenagers. But, he was able to get all of us taken care of and down/around the Antilla site. It was so awesome. I didn't think I'd be able to go in/out of the wreckage due to fear but it wasn't that bad at all. Those who weren't comfortable with it (there was only one), were able to just swim above/beside the boat while waiting for the rest of us to come in/out (we weren't inside the but for extended times). Ronnie was patient and comfortable with all of us despite our vast skill differences. He even took video and sent them to us. We saw so much during this two tank dive... eel, sting ray, turtle, lionfish, octopus, puffer fish, stone fish, it was all very cool. The visibility was great. The water temp for late March was 79 and they provided short wetsuits. It was maybe a 10-15 minute boat ride to the first dive site. There was a light snack between dives as the crew (Ronnie and Nelly) changed over our gear for us. I really didn't think I would like to do a wreck site but this definitely changed my mind. The whole crew was awesome! We were able to take along our teenage son who ended up just snorkeling the site from above with another person who didn't want to dive. I appreciated their flexiblity on this.

Highly recommend Aruba Water Sports Center for diving - Dive Master Ronny Sanchez and skipper Nelly were terrific. We rented BCDs, wetsuits, tanks, and regulators. The gear was all in great shape. When I had a problem with my BCD inflator tube, Ronnie swapped it out on the spot. We enjoyed riding out to the dive site on the boat’s flying bridge under the bimini top (in the shade). The boat was clean, and the flying bridge was freshly painted. Underwater, Ronny found all kinds of interesting things that we would’ve swam right past (e.g. octopi hiding in little holes on each dive). He took GoPro videos of both dives, and sent us the clips through WhatsApp at no charge. When we got back to the boat, they had fresh cut pineapple for us. Ronny and Nelly were very friendly and attentive. Highly recommend Aruba Water Sports Center for diving and especially Ronny and Nelly for the crew.
