Boca Catalina is a small, sheltered cove near Arashi Beach that offers arguably the best shore snorkeling in all of Aruba. The crystal-clear water and abundant marine life make it a favorite among snorkeling enthusiasts and tour boat operators. Sea turtles are frequent visitors. The beach itself is small and undeveloped, with a rocky entry that gives way to sandy bottom. It fills up when tour boats arrive in the morning, so early arrival is rewarded.
