About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- W3649VNmarks0 contributionsGreat two-dive experience in ArubaCheeky break from a cruise! I have an advanced ticket and was happy that the group was split to enable advanced divers to dive together. Although my buddy was only interested in taking photos solo I was fine keeping an eye on the divemaster who spotted many interesting things and was always keen to share. Drift dive conditions but not too strong. Diving on sunken old aircraft very interesting and felt adventurous, then onto coral area. Not my best diving ever, but it was certainly good enough and the set up and team was very good. The friendly lead crew made it an enjoyable and relaxing experience. I used their gear which was good quality. Got picked up and I just would have felt more relaxed with a short briefing in the bus or on arrival - timing, form filling, where to get kit. where to put it, boat protocol etc. I would certainly recommend the Pure Diving experience.Written January 5, 2025
- 435abhishekv0 contributionsMust do activity!Definitely a great scuba experience. We had never done this before, but thoroughly enjoyed it. The instructors were very friendly.Written January 1, 2025
- jamiefW5591DO0 contributionsGreat ExperienceI'm a divemaster and my son has his advanced open water certification so we've done a lot of diving. I wanted to be sure to do our night dive at a good site so I found Pure Diving Aruba online and signed up. Steve does a great job of finding a good dive site and guiding a group and finding interesting things to see. He was also a nice guy and attentive to the less experienced divers. I highly recommend.Written December 30, 2024
- mark_bergen980 contributionsRemarkable Experience!!Clear, detailed, and informative instruction. Wonderful, patient, and passionate instructors. Clean and sturdy equipment. And most importantly, a dive experience that will live in my memory forever! Highly highly recommend!Written December 28, 2024
- grahamhA851GK0 contributionsGreat ExperienceA great experience! Our excellent instructor was helpful and patient. She really did a first rate job. We couldn't have asked for more. One of the best things to do on the island for sure!Written December 10, 2024
- elanoue0 contributionsSafe and Easy to work with Dive ShopPure Diving Aruba was great to work with and the Divemasters that I had (Alfonzo and Alvaro) were both kind, knowledgeable, safe and easy to work with. I did 4 drives with this company over 2 days and I would absolutely recommend them and dive with them again!Written November 7, 2024
- Shaun S0 contributionsPerfection!I can’t recommend this place enough. I bought a 5 day Nitrox package which included 2 tank diving every morning. I also had the pleasure of joining them for a night dive. The staff are friendly and d knowledgeable. The dive sites are excellent, and they made a point to visit a variety of sites in my 5 days with them. Although I brought my own gear, I had the chance to inspect their rental gear and it was well-maintained and in good shape. The boat is well-equipped with an ample dry storage area. My only suggestion for improvement to the staff was that they need bigger rinse buckets, but that’s a relatively small issue. Big thanks to Steve, Alvaro, & Alonzo for an excellent time!Written October 28, 2024
- Stephen S0 contributionsBest Team on the IslandOut of multiple dove shops on Aruba they are by far the best team on the island. They are a team that genuinely cares about you as client and your experience. Dive masters and bait captains are exceptionalWritten October 24, 2024

- E261HVmichaelw0 contributionsBest Dive Group in ArubaAmazing staff. Steve and his crew are extremely professional and safe. They provide some stunning dives and keep you feeling like family. Heard a lot of bad stories of other dive shops so I am glad I picked the best to Dive the beautiful Aruba reefs. Highly recommend and they have amazing equipment to rent if needed.

- 639gggg0 contributionsBreathtaking awe experience very friendly staff and attentiveI would give it 10 stars if I could The instructions were made very simple I had no prior experience so I was nervous he dumbed it down and made it simple but he also prepared for what to do when your under water and if water gets I. Your mask or your breathing device comes out it was simple I highly recommend this company it was my first time and it was beautiful they take you too a place full of ocean lifeWritten October 2, 2024
- phatREADS0 contributionsBest Dive Shop on Aruba, Really!Pure Diving Aruba is a really chill, fun outfit to dive with. You can tell they have a passion for what they do and they create a laid back, let's have fun but be safe out there vibe. I researched a lot of dive shops on island but chose Pure Diving Aruba because they were just honest, straightforward and easy going. I did 12 dives with them and can't wait to get back to Aruba to do more!Written September 21, 2024
- nolefan20170 contributionsGreatest Aruba experience with the greatest company!Best experience ever! We actually joined two more times after doing Discover Scuba and they are the reason we will pursue diving and return to Aruba. Alonso and Mona were so helpful and supportive as we became used to the diving. Our second and third dives were so much fun and we felt extremely safe. Steven was also a great help during our second two dives and very welcoming and fun. Marc was so responsive by email and a wonderful wealth of information! The experience with this company could not have been better! Wanna dive? Do it with them!Written August 23, 2024
- meganefc0 contributionsGreat for first timersIt was an amazing experience! The instructors were nice and patients with our group (of 3), we were all first timers. They explained all the safety tips, we practiced some exercises and then we were good to go around and see lots of fish. Unfortunately, we didn't see any turtles that day (you might get luckier in the morning) but lots of things to see anyway, great experience for beginners scuba divers.Written August 17, 2024

This was my second tour with Pure Diving and no doubt I will go again.
The company is well organized and the team is so friendly that in a matter of minutes you already feel like family.
They take you to great dive sites and do their best to accommodate to your needs.
If you go diving to Aruba dont miss the opportunity to do it with Pure Diving

Steve, the owner of Pure Dive, was great! He picked me up at my Hotel and drove me to the Beach, gave a briefing and off we went. Great beach dive and Steve was very personable.

I had a good, but not great, experience with Pure Diving Aruba. I was only in Aruba for one day as I was on a cruise ship (NCL Epic). They picked me up at the Cruise Terminal along with a couple of other people. It was a short ride to their setup on the dock where they have their operation. I brought all my own gear and was doing my #198 and #199 dives with them. There really wasn't much of a dive or safety briefing so I asked where the oxygen was. When I inquired about groupings just before getting in the water the DM said I was with her and she thought I was an Open Water Diver, which I am not. Another group was going to look for a wreck in 130+ of water and she asked them if I could join them. I told them I was a Master Diver with a Deep cert. They offered to take me but I declined since I was at the end of cold and was nervous about my ears bothering me at that depth. So instead I was buddied up with an OW diver with 9 dives seconds before getting in the water, so no time for a proper buddy check. He did fine, but the group had even newer divers who did not do as well. The two dives were nice, but unremarkable. I came up with half a tank each dive and had to change over my gear in between dives. I am not giving this operation a 5 Star review because I felt like I was more of an afterthought than a priority. I had a far better experience in Bonaire with another company and have left a separate review for that.

Hi WorldTourPrincess,
Thanks for writing your review. We appreciate that.
Too bad you felt like I was more of an afterthought than a priority because you weren't. On the form you filled out you stated that you are a rescue diver. One of the instructors was doing a deep course and that's why you couldn't go with him at first. When it became clear that you had your deep certificate you could join but you chose to stay with the dive master and dive with different levels.
As for the oxygen; of course we have it on board and the captain, instructors and divemasters know where to find it.
We are happy that you had a good experience.
Warm greetings,
team Pure Diving Aruba
