Thanks to this web site and your reviews here I've decided to snorkel with Stuart/ArubaBOb in January 2013. I can t wait and like some of you am a year shy of 60 and going with family. I'm not the greatest swimmer but have snorkeled before and can get around. The scooter experience seems like it will be helpful.

Hoping to add my own report when we return...but geeze its a year away and all I can do is dream.

I'll return to thsi web site every once in awhile to see if any new posts arrive

I can't wait to snorkel with aruba bob. We are planning our 4th trip to Aruba (we'll be heading back down in November). We've been snorkeling many times with both tours and by ourselves...but this REALLY has me excited!

Just got back, went with Stuart on Saturday. Had the most amazing time!

There were 4 of us and it was a wonderful experience.

The scooters are easy to use and Stuart gives you all the gear and instructions you need. He makes you feel very safe and exudes confidence. I am a decent swimmer but am carrying a bit of baby weight with me and had a hard time in the rougher part on our way out. I told Stuart I was having a hard time and he changed our course a bit to make it easier for me. He told me that if ever I was having trouble I could swim along side him and that made me feel better. I ended up doing most of it on my own but during a particularly narrow channel through some coral, he guided me side by side through it and I am so glad we did. He took us to some amazing spots and the fish were breathtaking. We saw a giant sea slug and a moray eel!

At one point during our swim, one of my flippers fell off and luckily I found it right away and he secured them both back on for me. Only me could these things happen to!

We all had a great time and HIGHLY recommend Stuart and Kent to anyone looking for a different snorkeling experience. We have snorkeled with Jolly Pirates a few times in the past as well as at Baby Beach and this far surpassed any of those trips not only in the beauty that we saw in the water below but in the personal attention.

I hope you have as great a time as we did and we can't wait to go again in January 2013!
