Skip this if

  • You don't want a rocky shore entry, water shoes help a lot
  • You want to touch or chase the turtles, that's not allowed here

Why our team recommends it

Tres Trapi's shallow, glass-clear water is where Aruba's green sea turtles graze, and this private hour puts a guide in the water with you the whole time, filming as you go so photos and video come included instead of costing extra. You enter straight off the three carved steps in the rocks, so water shoes help. Float still and let the turtles come to you, touching isn't allowed.

Pro tip

You enter straight off the rocks, so water shoes make the three steps much friendlier. Float still instead of chasing: the turtles come closer on their own, and touching them is not allowed.
