Boca Catalina is a popular beach for snorkeling in the northwest of
Aruba island in the Caribbean. In fact, it's also good for sunbathing and for swimming. Unlike most Aruba beaches, there are trees, cacti and palms! Just walk to the right towards the expensive hotel, and you will find a suitable spot. Of course, entry into the water is not very comfortable, but still there are occasional sandy patches. There are no shops or cafes, so you'll have to bring all you need. Shore and seabed: sand, stones.
