From the guide

Receive a warm Caribbean welcome aboard Arusun, where our friendly, experienced crew will help you settle in and get ready for 2½ hours of sailing, snorkeling and good times on Aruba’s turquoise water.

Arusun is no ordinary catamaran. This 60-foot Formula II Ocean Racing Catamaran was built in 1984. In 1989, Dutch sailor Henk de Velde took her, then named Alisun J&B, on a solo around-the-world record attempt, completing the journey in 158 days.

Today, her adventure continues in Aruba. Snorkel at the Antilla Shipwreck and Boca Catalina, swing into the Caribbean from our new rope swing, or relax with a drink on the spacious deck, front trampolines or shaded lounging area. Enjoy an unlimited open bar, light snacks, fresh fruit and great music while our crew takes care of the details.

Sail aboard a true piece of ocean-racing history with Aruba Watersports Center, a family-operated company since 1987.
