17 tours · €27–€133 per person · ★ 4.7
Water sports in Aruba are short and sold by the ride, and the 17 here were picked by hand from every listing rated 4.5★ or higher. Prices run from €27 per person for a tube ride behind a speedboat to €133 for a flyboard session with an instructor. Parasailing in Aruba means a boat ride out from Palm Beach and about ten minutes in the air, solo or in a tandem; the seabob tours pull you along the reef on an underwater scooter; the kayak trips paddle clear boats through the mangroves or out to Sea Glass Island; and a few clear kayak bookings are really photoshoots with edited pictures.
A quick way to choose: read the weight limits, because parasailing needs a minimum weight to fly alone and the kayaks and flyboard have their own; treat your booked time as a check in, since wind decides when the parasail goes up; and bring the card you paid with and a photo ID, which operators check at the beach hut. Transport is rarely included. The best reviewed water sports in Aruba come first below.
