Why our team recommends it

The Atlantis Submarine is the only way to see Aruba's reefs and wrecks 130 feet down without getting wet, which makes it a great fit for non-swimmers and families with younger kids (ages 4 and up). It's air-conditioned and departs right from Oranjestad Harbor. Sit on the left side for the best shipwreck views, and book the earliest departure for the clearest water.

Pro tip

Sit on the left side of the submarine for the best views of the shipwreck. Book the earliest departure for clearest water visibility.
