Description
Description
A banana boat Aruba ride puts your whole group on one inflatable behind the boat for thirty minutes. It is the classic beach activity for a reason: everyone rides together, nobody needs any skill, and falling off is part of the fun.

How the banana boat Aruba ride works
You straddle the inflatable in a line and hold the handles while the boat tows you along the coast. The driver reads the group. A family with small children gets a steady ride in a straight line; a group of adults who want to be thrown off will be obliged.
Because you are riding as a group it is usually the activity people book when they want everyone involved at once rather than taking turns.
What you pay for banana boat Aruba
The full price is $25.00 per person. You pay a 20% deposit of $5.00 online now to hold the booking, and the remaining $20.00 per person is paid at the beach on the day of your excursion. Tax is added at checkout. Because you are booking direct through One Happy Island rather than through a reseller, there is no booking fee stacked on top.
Booking and where to meet
Choose your date above and set how many people are coming. We confirm the time with you by email, since slots shift with the weather and with the day’s other bookings. The meeting point is J.E. Irausquin Boulevard 83, Palm Beach, Aruba, and your confirmation email repeats the address along with what to look for when you arrive.
If you are staying on Palm Beach or Eagle Beach you are a short walk or a very quick taxi ride away. To fill out the rest of the day, the other watersports and boat trips all leave from the same stretch of sand.
