Seabob

A Seabob or sea scooter moves you through the water while you hold on. You still wear snorkel gear. You do not get a tank, and you do not need a dive card for the four tours on this page.
Two of them are Seabob trips with Segway Aruba: a reef route that names Arashi, Boca Catalina and Tres Trapi, and a longer trip that starts at the Antilla. The other two are sea-scooter snorkels at Mangel Halto. They are not the same machine.
Quick answer: The lowest starting price here is $95 per person for the Nautilus sea scooter. Guided Seabob tours start at $97.44. The booked time is the whole outing, not a promise of that many minutes on the scooter.

Segway Aruba runs the two Seabob tours. Aruba Bob and Nautilus run guided snorkels with other sea scooters.
| Tour | Starting price | Duration | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|

| Antilla shipwreck Seabob tour | $120 | 2.5 hours | The shipwreck |

Starting prices and durations from the listings, reviewed in November 2026. The duration is the booked experience, not continuous time on the scooter.
Both include a professionally trained Seabob guide, snorkel gear, bottled water, bathroom access, and pickup and drop-off at selected hotels and the port. The office address is Palm Beach 55, South beach building 33, in Noord. Ages start at 12. No dive card is listed. Confirm that your hotel is on the pickup list.
The itinerary starts and finishes at Arashi. Fish and turtles are possible. They are not promised. The guide stays with the group. The listing says the tour suits all fitness levels. That still is not a swimming clearance. Ask. The hour includes the briefing. Ask how much of it is on the Seabob.
Best for: a first Seabob on a named reef route.

Segway Aruba
1-hour guided Seabob reef tour from $97.44. Snorkel gear, water and hotel or port pickup at selected spots. The route names Arashi, Boca Catalina and Tres Trapi. Ages 12 to 80. The guide stays with the group.
1 hour · 4.8/5 from 204 reviews
Check AvailabilityThe Antilla is a large wreck off the northwest coast. This listing names it as the first stop, which the reef tour does not. You get an introduction to the scooter, then the guided wreck, then the coast toward Tres Trapi. Departures are listed at 8:30 a.m., 12:30 p.m. and 3:45 p.m. Confirm the time on the booking. Turtles are not guaranteed. This listing does not include a bad-weather cancellation flag. The reef tour does. Read the rule on the one you pay for.
Best for: a Seabob day that is booked for the wreck.

Segway Aruba
2.5-hour guided Seabob trip from $120. The Antilla is the first stop, then Tres Trapi. A Seabob F5 S, snorkel gear and hotel or port pickup. Ages 12 to 88. Three departure times are listed.
2 hr 30 min · 4.9/5 from 155 reviews

Solar-powered scooters with three speeds, a guide, snorkel gear and pictures. The name says Mangel Halto Beach. The stored address is Savaneta 305, Oranjestad. Use the pin in the confirmation. This is the largest review count of the four.

Aruba Bob Snorkeling & Scuba
2.5-hour small-group snorkel with solar sea scooters at Mangel Halto, from $100. Snorkel gear and pictures included. Ages 12 to 70, up to 8 people. Confirm the meeting point. This is not a Seabob.

The age bands are 8–12, 14–17, 18–60 and 65–70. Ages 13 and 61–64 are missing. Confirm anyone in a gap. An infant line in the ticket settings is not a reason to bring a baby.

Check AvailabilityYou hold the handles and an electric motor pulls you forward. Depending on the model and the sea, that can be at the surface or a short dip under it. The machine does not give you air. If you go under, you are still holding your breath. The guide explains the controls before you start. These four tours do not ask for a dive card. They also do not share one swimming rule. Ask, especially if someone is not a confident swimmer.

Book Segway Aruba when the brand and the northwest coast, or the wreck, are the point. Book Mangel Halto when you want a guided snorkel with a motor. The place, the group size and the time on the device matter more than the logo.

| Nautilus sea scooter | $95 |
| Segway Aruba reef Seabob | $97.44 |
| Aruba Bob sea scooter | $100 |
| Antilla Seabob | $120 |
You are paying for a guide, the machine and the outing. Shore snorkeling is the cheaper way to look at fish. That guide is snorkeling in Aruba. An independent Seabob rental is not one of these four bookings.
| Tour | Advertised duration |
|---|---|
| Segway Aruba reef tour | 1 hour |
| Antilla Seabob | 2.5 hours |
| Aruba Bob | 2.5 hours |
| Nautilus | 3 hours |
Briefing, gear and any transfer sit inside that clock. Ask how many minutes you are actually on the scooter.
Bring swimwear, a towel, sunscreen, a sun shirt, water and the confirmation. Leave loose valuables out of the water. A full refund on all four needs a cancellation at least 24 hours ahead.
| Activity | How it works | Card |
|---|---|---|
| Seabob | A branded scooter pulls you | Not required on these tours |
| Sea scooter snorkel | A different scooter, still snorkeling | Not required on these tours |
| Snorkeling | You swim at the surface | Generally not required |
| Scuba | You breathe from a tank | Depends on the intro or the certified dive |
