“Now I know why it's No. 1!!”

First, book this tour online and in advance. The value is great and they do sell out. Second, sit back and chillax!! This was the most relaxing and satisfying snorkel and sail trip we've been on throughout the Caribbean!! Why?? 1. Because you aren't sitting elbow to elbow next to other people. You get a BIG comfy lounge chair to lay on and admire the coast and sunset. 2. The owners are very friendly and are constantly trying to make sure everything is going great for you. 3. This is NOT a party boat. Sure they serve drinks and have an amazing drink special with five juices and various rums, but it's very relaxing. 4. They serve watermelon (very refreshing), a delicious gouda cheese and tomato sandwich on nine seed bread, and a delicious grilled gouda cheese sandwich. Both sandwiches just hit the spot perfectly after the two snorkel spots. 5. You can watch a video of your sail trip on FB! I "shared" it on my wall for everyone to see! 6. A great value! We will definitely do this again on our next trip to Aruba!
I just wanted to let you know how much we appreciate the hard work you do to make our visits to Aruba so enjoyable. In fact, “Sailing with Albert & Joanne” on the Blue Melody or the Black Pearl is one of THE reasons we come to Aruba. From grandparents all the way down to the 18 month old grandson, we all have a wonderful time. Thank you.

A MUST: A sunset sail, snorkel with blue melody or the Black Pearl (www.aruba-sailing.com). This is a quiet, relaxing tour. Albert (owner) only takes small groups. So it's very quaint and intimate. You feel like you're sailing with a friend and not on a tour. The snorkeling was much better than the trip with Red Sail Sports. Judy.

This boat is owned by a great couple: Albert is from Holland and Joann is from California. Not crowded at all, a personal touch with a great home made lunch served to you.

drink, sandwiches made on great bread and we also had a kind-of garlic bread. Oh, the boat sails from 3:30 to 6:30, so you get to the see the sunset on the way back. The boat leaves from the dock right by the Marriott. All in all a very good trip, very nice people and I would recommend this to anyone. Lory & Rick
We've done Jolly Pirate and may more.
However,
We were just there and snorkeled on the Blue Melody. Owners and crew are a husband & wife team - Albert and Joann. They only take 12 people and are so wonderful - fun and just all around super people. Great food (yummy sandwiches & watermelon slices) and drinks. I highly recommend it.
It was great to see the over-crowded Jolly Pirate with everyone standing while we lounged out on the catamaran with our cocktails.
If you go, please tell them that the two brothers, Zachary & Thomas sent you
We take the Blue Melody every year and it is wonderful.
We had a great time on Blue Melody with Albert & Joann. The boat was a perfect size, great price, super snorkeling...Albert got in the water with us to make sure we saw cool fish! Joann was a great hostess with noverending drinks and awesome sandwiches! This is a very local, safe, fun, well priced few hour trip not to be missed!

I can not begin to explain what a wonderful time we had. Albert was walking the beach and happened to come upon us, he cut us a sale price, we booked and arrived the next afternoon. It was the one of the best part of our Honeymoon, 3 hours of sailing and site seeing, personal stories and friendly conversation. The snorling, sunset and friendliness was just so wonderful. We will be back and tour again with Joann and Albert. We had an absolutely wonderful time with beautiful pictures.
Thanks Again
