One Happy Island snorkeling

Does anyone know of a boat that takes you snorkeling down south to the reefs more in the area of the beer factory?

Take a peek at our trip - we take you down to Mike's Reef in the area of Spanish Lagoon. The trip is a small pax charter (no more than 14 people) on board a 41ft Jeanneau.
Our website is www.funaruba.com and specific info concerning the sailing/snorkeling charter can be found on http://www.funaruba.com/coralquay/cqmain.html

Let me know if you have any questions - you can contact me through the website

Cheers!
Nicky

Thanks for the link Nicky, always happy to see a tour that keeps the charter to a smaller number of people. Don't catch all the fish!

Doreen, another option is the Tranquilo's South Side sail, which also goes to the area you're looking for (http://www.tranquiloaruba.com/). It's a longer tour (6 hours), leaving from Palm Beach instead of from downtown. This allows you to get a nice scenic trip around the SW side of the island, past Palm and Eagle and Druif and downtown etc.

Included is a drift snorkel over deep water, along with the great reef in the Spanish Lagoon. Open bar and lunch included, limited reservations to keep the group size small. If you go, tell Capt Anthony I said hi!
