9 tours · €27–€106 per person · ★ 4.8
Scuba diving in Aruba splits cleanly into first timers and card holders, and the 9 dive trips here were picked by hand from every listing rated 4.5★ or higher. Prices run from €27 per person for a boat dive where you bring your own gear to €106 for a one to one dive with a private instructor. Certified divers get the two tank morning boat trips to the reefs and wrecks, with a single tank afternoon option; beginners get the discover scuba format, a theory briefing and pool practice before one open water dive.
A quick way to choose: certified or not decides it, since the two tank trips check your card and want recent dives in your logbook; then read the equipment line, because some boat dives price the tank and weights only and rent the rest at the shop; and answer the medical questionnaire honestly before a discover dive. Gratuities and a local tax are often extra, and nobody flies within a day of the last dive. The best reviewed Aruba scuba diving tours come first below.
