The ScubbleBubbles are an incorporated foundation in Aruba focused on getting more local youth involved in ocean conservation activities. It started in 2016 as a way to get more young people diving, but soon it was clear that something needed to be done to protect and restore the beautiful reefs of Aruba.
Some of our current projects include the first official coral restoration nursery in Aruba, new and innovative reef survey techniques in conjunction with our marine biologist, and regular reef clean ups at some of the local dive sites and marinas.
We are also workin with FPNA, University of Aruba, and Wageningen University for the Turning the Tide project!
We also work with local dive shops to continue education for divers. Many of our members have earned their advanced open water, Reef Rescue Specialist, Ocean Conservation, Lionfish Elimination, Fish ID and Dive Against Debris Diver certifications. With our own PADI Instructor, we are also able to offer SCUBA certification at a reduced cost for local students.
