Overview

Take the helm or sit back and enjoy the sail. It’s your Aruba adventure, your way.
Aruba’s steady north-easterly trade winds create a fantastic setting for Hobie Cat sailing. Feel the Caribbean breeze fill the sails as you experience Palm Beach from a completely different perspective.

Already know how to sail? Choose your Hobie Cat and head out independently within the designated sailing area.
First-time sailor or simply prefer to relax? Add an experienced captain/instructor for guidance, instruction or to take care of the sailing for you.

Choose the fun and responsive 14-foot Hobie Cat or enjoy extra room aboard the larger 16-foot model. Life jackets are included, and our crew monitors the sailing area with assistance available if needed.

Whether you’re learning the ropes or already comfortable at the helm, get ready for a sailing adventure—Southern Caribbean style—with Aruba Watersports Center, a family-operated company sharing the fun of Aruba’s ocean since 1987.
