"I'm giving JADS an excellent because we thoroughly enjoyed diving with them. My husband and I are experienced divers and have dove all over the world. JADS is an excellent operation, but there is nothing fancy about them. If you're looking for a spruced up boat, this is not your place. Their boat is..." adequate, but nothing fancy. But if you're looking for great dives with a fantastic team, this is your operation. We dove four days with them, all two tank dives and all eight dives were fantastic. The team was great with the less experienced divers and those who needed extra attention. We are the type of divers who like to take it slow and look around and they were very accommodating to what we wanted. It really was all about what we wanted from or dives. Additionally, they picked us up at our hotel each morning which was great since we did not rent a car.
We would absolutely dive with JADS if we return to Aruba.

"My wife has a disease which causes balance issues. Therefore she can't go in surf or she gets knocked down. Most Aruba beaches have strong currents. Baby beach is protected with a great swimming area that increases in depth very gradually. She loved it. No rocks to speak of so you'll only need water..." shoes if you go in the snorkeling area which is roped off Where water depth varies from a foot to 10 feet.
Great for kids, older folks. We got there on a Friday morning at 8:30 AM and had the place to ourselves for an hour and a half. Snorkeling, is great Saw perhaps 35 varieties of fish up to 18 inches long. Huge swimming area with water from 3-5 feet deep. You can rent chairs, shelters to keep sun off, snorkeling equipmeNT. Two restaurants there. food OK but a little pricey. Please don't feed the fish bread. It isn't good for them and you can see the fish fine without it.
Outhouses available for a fee and not too swell but that is the only downside.

"Far from the crowds at the far South end of Aruba - and just past the island's oil refinery, you will find Baby Beach, which is a local favorite for families attending the beach. Safe, secluded, shallow, calm. The kids can run around the beach and play in the water without freaking out the parents..."! It's really like a giant backyard swimming pool. And, for the more adventurous, you can swim out toward the rocks for some great snorkeling.
