Things to do in Aruba, Aruba: The Best Reefs

October 21, 2021 Jasper Kershner

Aruba is the quintessential Caribbean island, all sun and sea and stretches of powdery white sand. Time will slow to a pleasant crawl as you linger over a tropical cocktail or flutter serenely underwater, where only the parrotfish are in a hurry. The pastel façades of Oranjestad landmarks and shops lend an inviting and playful vibe to the capital city. Enjoy the shade of an Eagle Beach divi tree while the crashing waves of turquoise water create a soothing soundtrack just for you.

Baby Beach

This is a hard tie with Eagle, we really love this place, water is gorgeous , about waist deep all way across, we loved area around Big Mamas Grill, P.S....90% of thatched huts on the island are public and free to use, just have to rent chairs if u want them

Malmok Reef

A great dive, not just because of the Debbie II wreck but because of ample brain coral and schools of barracuda patrolling the area.

As if the Brain and Leaf Corals of the reef weren't enough, the wreck of the Antilla is nearby, enhancing the dive.

A submerged 120-foot barge on Malmok reef offers excellent diving experiences.

Reviewed By ericbG9639CA

Excellent dive - Reef and wreck are close together and easily accessible on one dive. Spotted eagle ray, turtles, moray eels, and lots of reef fish. The wreck is relatively recent and is attracting a great deal of sea life as it begins to mature. It is also easy for penetration diving.

5. Lago Reef

Aruba

At a depth of 120 feet, this is Aruba's deepest dive location, which offers a kaleidoscope of coral formations, sponges, sea anemones and a variety of marine life.
