Hi everyone,

I've got a couple of things I'm searching for:

1 - Where can I find the "I Love Aruba Guide" - contains discount coupons

2 - Will the Aruba airport carry street maps?

3 - What would be better in Aruba renting snorkel equipment or should I just buy it when I'm there? I plan to snorkel at last 4 times or more.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

You will be given one with your car rental, otherwise, they are also available in booklets in hotel lobbies. Imo, Aruba Experience has the best one.

Buy it at home, it will be much less expensive than buying there. Renting works well too, but for the amount you plan on using it, the investment before you go will pay off in the long run.

Buy your snorkle gear at home you get get pretty good packages on line from such sites as leisure pro. I have used them several times and have always been satisfied

Do hotels such as Bucuti rent snorkel equipment or is there something close by? Is it rented by the hour or day?

click the above link for a list of the different scuba/snorkel companies on island that might be able to help with rental question.

my suggestion is to buy a nice mask, fins and snorkel and bring with you.
a good investment.

You get some good discount coupons with the Little Switzerland bag you are handed upon exiting the airport. Also, if I'm not mistaken, you can pick up other similar type books at the supermarkets, etc that may have maps in them.
Car rental company definitely carries street maps.

If you do not want to take all the gear...... I recommend at least taking your own mask and snorkel. Just rent the Fins.
