This is a nice expedition. Something very touristy that you should do at least once. It was easy to find, but parking is at a premium so get there early. The check-in process is super easy. You have to take a boat to the submarine and the time is spent wisely reviewing emergency procedures so once you get to the submarine you are ready for the adventure. The submarine is not crowded. Everyone has a good view out the portholes. There are cards next to the portholes to find the different fish. You see two shipwrecks and a ton of fish. We saw "Crush" the sea turtle and "Dory" from Finding Nemo which the kids thought was great. We saw a barracuda and several others. You see the different changes in the reefs from 20 feet to 120 feet down. Overall it is worth the money. I may not do this every time we are in Aruba but it definitely is worth seeing it at least once.

My husband and I traveled with our 2 teenage daughters for spring break to Aruba.
The submarine ride was awesome! My husband thought it was the best part of our trip! The girls and I loved seeing the marine life and the sunken ships were very cool too. Just the experience of being on an operating sub was teriffic!!
The submarine trip was a little creepy for me. I have a phobia of being underwater. My 11 year old daughter loved it! It really is a real sub and you are under water for 1 hour as deep as 130 feet. Overall it was a good experience.

We enjoyed the trip, but it would have been better if we had a specific time that we were supposed to leave instead of getting to the desk and finding that we did not have the afternoon excursion as requested when we selected the tour.

The experience of being in a submarine was great. The only disappointment was that there were not too many fish to see. The cost was a bit high.
