We just recently returned from Aruba and the diving was great. The visibility was not as good as I had anticapated (50 t0 60 Feet) but Aruba is clearly the place to go for great wrecks. Even for my son who is 13 years old and not supposed to do deep diving, there were plenty of wrecks at 40 to 60 feet deep. The thrill for him doing his first wreck at 13 was amazing.
I have posted 1 picture from inside the Antilla. The Antilla is a W.W.II German freighter. This is one of the best wreck in the Caribbean. It is over 400 feet long and sits on its port side. It breaks the surface from a maximum depth of 60 feet. There is an abundance of colorful fish on coral encrusted wreck. A large jewfish lives in forward section. Throngs of blue tangs will eat bread out of your hands at the stern of the boat. There are more fish here than on any reef. Definitely a dive to be logged.
I will write about other Aruba sites soon!
