Children under twelve are not allowed, and pickup is a paid extra. 4.58 from 48 reviews at €72 per person. In our comparison: #12 of 17 in Parasailing, Kayak & Water Sports, by rating weighted by review volume (table below). ## Overview Explore Aruba's underwater world after dark as you head out in glass-bottom kayaks with an experienced guide. Make it out onto the water in time for sunset, and then use LED floodlights to illuminate the dark water, filled with vibrant coral reefs and neon-hued fish. Join your us at Arashi Beach and spend a few moments going over safety basics and learning how to paddle your kayak effectively. Watch the sun dip below the horizon, filling the sky with shades of gold and orange, and then flick on your boat's LED lights to see Aruba's rich marine life beneath you. Glide over vibrant beds of coral, look for blue parrot fish darting in and out of rocky hideouts, and follow your guide to a shallow shipwreck to see how nature has claimed it as a new reef. Wait for the stars to come out to enjoy a spectacular view of the night sky, and then head back to shore to return your gear and end your night on the water. ## Before you book - Meeting point: Meeting time 5.45 pm at Arashi Beach… - Min. 2 to book: not for solo travellers - Starts 18:00: one departure a day - Food included: see what is included - Age 17+: Children under 12 years are not allowed **Pickup:** No hotel pickup: everyone meets at the start point ## Key facts - Price: from €72 per person - Duration: 2h - Rating: 4.58/5 from 48 reviews (collected from Guidekin & Viator & Tripadvisor) - Free cancellation (see policy below) - Operator: Clear Kayak Aruba - Minimum booking: 2 travellers at this price - Group: Shared tour - Guide languages: English, Dutch, Spanish - Start times: 18:00 - Booking: Instant confirmation, mobile ticket - Price checked on Viator: 2026-09-19 ## Reviews 4.58 from 48 ratings on Guidekin, Viator & Tripadvisor. 88% of ratings with a star breakdown are 4 or 5 stars: 42 of 48. - 5 stars: 38 (79%) - 4 stars: 4 (8%) - 3 stars: 3 (6%) - 2 stars: 2 (4%) - 1 star: 1 (2%) ### What reviewers say Reviewers praise the guides and sunset views, but some see little or no marine life. **Praised:** - Friendly, supportive guides who share local history and island stories - Sunset views from the water and a different perspective on the coastline - Seeing fish gather around the lights and jump into the kayaks - Guides taking and sharing photos from the paddle **Complaints:** - Some see plenty of fish, while others see little or no marine life - Some see clearly through the kayak bottoms, while others find them difficult to see through - Some find paddling easy, while others find it more work than expected - Weather and waves sometimes disrupt the planned route Written by Guidekin from the 46 most recent English reviews on Viator & Tripadvisor (2018-12-10 to 2025-01-26); last checked 2026-10-03. ## What's included - Use of double kayak with LED lights - Snacks - Guided night tour by glass-bottom kayak - Live tour commentary provided in English, Spanish, and Dutch - Fruit and water ## Not included - Food and drinks, unless specified - Snorkeling - Pick up and drop off can be arranged at an extra charge ## Itinerary 1. **Departing during late afternoon, your us at Arashi Beach and spend a few mome...** - Departing during late afternoon, your us at Arashi Beach and spend a few moments going over safety basics and learning how to paddle your kayak effectively.
