My son and I just got back from Diving in Arub. We dove with Clive @ Dive Aruba and had a great time. Clive operates a six pack boat. We enjoyed the small group and unhurried pace that Clive offers. Aruba has some great wrecks well within recreational limits including a 400' freighter, 200' freighter and a DC3 to name a few. We found the reefs healthy and full of life. We made a total of 14 dives during our stay and we found diversity in each dive we made. My son and I give Clive and Aruba a big thumbs up.

My buddy and I spent a week diving with Clive in May. He is a superb diver and Captain. We usually had dives of 70 minutes. Clive really knows the waters around Aruba and went out of his way to ensure we had a great time. Clive also ran us out to some local dining establishments for some fantastic local quisine. I would certainly recommend Clive again anyone who wants to dive Aruba!
 
I did 2 dives last December in Aruba with Red Sail Sports while on a Cruise. Gear was great, boat was a bit crowded but not bad. We saw the Antilla which was at 60 ft and the Pedernales which was at 25 ft. Both wrecks were awesome. We were able to penetrate the Antilla. Sea life was abunbant to say the least. Between the thousands of different angel fish, octopus, rock fish, brain coral and sponges, I could have stayed down another couple hours, if I didn't need air of course. This was my first warm water dive so I was a little awe struck...ok a lot. But it was incredible.

After we got back to the ship, people were saying that the diving in Barbados is even better. Don't know. Didn't experience it.
