# Jolly Pirate Cruise with Snorkel Adventure

**Guidekin's take:** A teak schooner with a rope swing, two shallow reef snorkel stops at Malmok and Boca Catalina and a third over the Antilla wreck, with a barbecue lunch and an open bar for adults. Hotel pickup is not included, and children must come with an adult. 4.85 from 1163 reviews at €96 per person.

## Overview

Sail, snorkel, swim and swing in Aruba aboard an impressive 85-foot teak Schooner.  Snorkel and Swim at three sites: You will have the opportunity to visit two shallow swimming and snorkel sites teeming with oodles of species of colorful, tropical fish at Malmok Reefs and Boca Catalina.  At the third site, you will view the famous WWII shipwreck, Antilla resting on her port side in only 60 feet of water. For your comfort find ample shade and seating under the large canopy by the open bar or stretch out on the teak decks for sunning. This tour includes a tasty BBQ lunch, open bar, full-set snorkeling gear and lots of fun with the ship's rope swing! You will learn why this is one of the most requested tours of all the Aruba excursions!
