Here you can stop with the Aqua Donut boat for a snorkel stop near the shoreline. Reefs and sunken wrecks nearby afford excellent diving in Aruba. Malmok Beach is also the name of a residential area with sprawling homes and a variety of modest windsurfing residences in Aruba. The main road through the Malmok Beach area is leading to the famous California Lighthouse, Tierra del Sol 18-hole golf course, Arashi Beach and other Aruba landmarks and activities. During early morning and late afternoon hours the Malmok Beach road is a popular venue in Aruba for outdoor activities. Both locals and tourists hit the road biking and hiking for their daily workout. From the starting point without any stops, Malmok can be reached in 20 minutes.
3
Boca Cataavlina
Boca Catalina on Aruba is a small, secluded bay in Malmok beach. The white sandy beach is accessible via stairs or of course with your own Aqua Donut Boat. A popular stop for snorkeling tours because of the variety of sea life located here, including palometas swimming near the shores, trunkfish and sergeant majors. When you venture a bit deeper into the sea you will see some big colorful fishes and corals, and don’t be surprised if you spot a turtle at Boca Catalina swimming in front of you. The crystal clear and calm water makes this the perfect location to make your private dive from your Aqua Donut Boat. Boca Catalina is a popular beach and attracts a fun mix of local families and tourists, especially during weekends. From the starting point without any stops, Boca Catalina can be reached in 30 minutes.
4
Arashi Beach
Powder soft white sand, superb snorkeling in peaceful water and turtles! Do you need anything else? One of the northernmost beaches on the island. Most days the sea is very calm. The lagoon is safe to snorkel, not that deep. You will find colorful tropical fish like French Angelfish and Blue Striped Snappers. Also some hard corals, and plenty of soft corals, sea fans. The reef is the nicest on the right side of the beach, approx. 200 meters from shore. This area is recommended for advanced snorkelers. It could be difficult to navigate between the corals in the relatively shallow water, and swim back to the shore if there is any current. Turtles can be spotted on the left side of the bay, search for sea grass patches! From the starting point without any stops, Arashi can be reached in 45 minutes.

Was a fantastic experience enjoying the water and view of Aruba in this manner. We celebrated my love's 50th birthday, just the 2 of us on this fun and romantic boat. Highly recommend. Josee was a great guide!

Fun evening in the donut boat!

Had a great time cruising around in the donut boat at sunset. Jose was an excellent guide - showing us how to use the boat and making sure everything was ok, but otherwise giving us space to enjoy ourselves. Note that the boats aren’t particularly fast - if you want time to lounge around, swim, listen to music through the Bluetooth speakers, etc, it’s best not to take it too far. A fun way to spend our last evening in Aruba!

Private sunset donut dinner!

Last week we went on a private sunset dinner in the donut boat! The occasion was my birthday. Jose was our waiter in the water. Jose was awesome! We had a blast. Definitely worth it!

Best Aruba Experience

This was our third trip to Aruba and this is officially our favorite experience. Aron was great. He got us set up, taught us how to captain the donut, and answered all of our questions. We rented the donut for 3 hours but wished we reserved more time. A Bluetooth speaker comes with the donut, so have your party playlist ready. Definitely recommend purchasing the champagne add-on.
