Sunset slots are the highest-demand window for Aruba — the boat times its course to put the golden hour off the bow. Book at least a week ahead for weekends and high season. Adult-only minimum age varies by operator; check the booking page.
December – April (dry season, steady trade winds). Shoulder months (may, june, november (shoulder bargains)) are the best-value window — smaller crowds, lower prices, mostly the same conditions. Avoid september – october (hurricane window).
10–15 % cash to the captain at the end. Cash to the captain at the end of the trip — they share with the deckhands. Service is sometimes included on private charters; check the booking confirmation.
Yes — several of the larger Aruba day-charter catamarans have water slides off the back of the boat (popular with families and kid groups). It's a feature you can filter for; check the offer card photos before booking.
Reef-safe (mineral, oxybenzone-free) sunscreen required in most marine parks. Pick up a mineral (zinc-oxide) sunscreen before you board; on-board sales are usually marked up.
