Hello from Aruba

[Vince-Aruba]

Hello everyone,
Thank you chairman, to accept me as newbie.
I’m Vince,47, married and living on Aruba. Aruba is one the greatest diving sites with christal blue water and numerous ship and plane wrecks to dive too and a great coral reef. I feel so lucky to be able to dive here!
I only have my Padi open water but am planning on getting my advanced in spring of 2022.
I hope to read and learn from you and looking forward to hear your stories

You can surely count on a trip report - I enjoy writing them!!

Aruba Shop Suggestions

Are you saying chain dive shops, or chain hotels/resorts with dive shops? I’ve never been to Aruba, but am thinking about it, so I’m sincerely curious. Most resort companies that have multiple resorts use the same company for the dive shops at all of their resorts across the Caribbean and...
