The island of Aruba is just 20 miles long and 6 miles wide, with a semi-arid topography bound by some of the most beautiful beaches in the world! Offering a decided American-influence, Aruba boasts a variety of vacation delights, including shopping, night-life, and a pristine coastline, with superb diving as well as snorkeling opportunities.

Mangel Halto Reef is exciting in that you practically walk on the water out to the reef edge before putting on your fins.  There are two entries for this dive: one from a large sunning beach, and the other just North off the main road.

A 100m South of the Southern 1A 4A intersection, turn West for 300m.  Then turn left for 1km passing over the Spanish Lagoon. Turn right and wind your way for about 1km.  You'll see the entrances on your right.
