Location & transportation

You can come to Tugboat Beach on your own. The last bit to Tugboat Beach is on a dirt road with big potholes, drive carefully! There is ample parking (free of charge).
Note: Never leave valuables in the car.
No transfer is offered with this trip. If you don’t have your own transportation, we can of course arrange a cab for you.

What to expect.

After the check-in, you will receive instructions on how to operate the electric underwater scooter. That’s done in a few minutes, because it’s very simple. In groups of 2 to 4 people you will go into the water. The tour is suitable for both beginners and more experienced Seabob users. Of course, you´ll also get to borrow goggles.

The tour begins at Tugboat Beach, a small beach just beyond Caracas Bay. A beautiful spot in itself, in close proximity to Fort Beekenburg and the Quarantine House atop the hill. Going into the sea, you will have to swim about 328 ft. to get to Tugboat. But of course that swimming is not a problem with the Seabob! Tugboat is a tugboat that sunk here. At depth of about 23 feet, you will always see lots of beautiful tropical fish trough and around this boat. And if you go a little further, you can admire plenty of coral.
The underwater scooter is very easy to operate by means of the levers with which you hold on to the Seabob. On the display you can see, among other things, how full the battery still is, so you don’t have to be afraid to ‘suddenly’ fall silent with an empty battery.
Standard is a Seabob Tour for 2 to 4 persons. If you are alone we will add you, by mutual agreement, to another group. If you want to take the tour with 5 people or more, there are certainly options for that. Then contact us via email for more information.

Terms

The Seabob tour is not suitable for persons with heart problems or physical discomfort and not allowed for pregnant women. Because the Seabob is fairly heavy, it will be difficult -especially in the beginning- for children to operate the machine. Hence our advice not to do this tour with children under the age of 13 (but it is allowed, at the responsibility of parents/guardians). You must be able to independently follow the guide’s instructions in the water.

Included in this excursion
