Aruba Seaworld Explorer Semi-Submarine
The Seaworld Explorer is a state-of-the-art semi-submarine developed in Australia for use on the Great Barrier Reef. This unique vessel does not submerge. You descend into the hull of this cruising underwater observatory and sit in air-conditioned comfort just 5 feet below the water’s surface, viewing amazing sea life through large clear glass windows.
Your journey begins at the Pelican Pier located on the beach at The Holiday Inn Resort where you board a transfer boat that takes you to the Seaworld Explorer waiting near the renowned Arashi Reef. From there, the Seaworld Explorer descends to the Antilla, the largest wreck in the Caribbean. This 440-foot German freighter was destroyed during World War II and is the largest wreck in the Caribbean. The Seaworld Explorer captain will take you within inches of the wreck giving you a first hand account of just how impressive the Antilla is. Partially submerged, this huge ship lies on her side in 60 feet of water; providing a resting place for passing pelicans and home to a wide variety of fish. Your guide will entertain you with educational and informative narrative about the ship’s history and the various species of marine you will see. The final portion of your journey is a relaxing cruise to shore.
