Aruba Premiere Boat and Dive is the lifelong passion project of native Aruban Arthur “AJ” Tromp, and American entrepreneur Keith Waring. The two friends met over 20 years ago while diving and deep sea fishing the waters off the One Happy Island, and have always dreamt of sharing their expertise and passion for the ocean with visitors to the island that is so special to them.
AJ has been Fishing, Scuba Diving and Free Diving the waters of Aruba since he was a small child. His grandfather, a merchant sailor and respected fisherman, turned AJ on to the magic and beauty that the waters of Aruba had to offer and passed on much of the knowledge that AJ utilizes today. When Keith and AJ’s paths crossed years ago, they immediately recognized their shared obsession with the water. Whether on the ocean or below the surface the two fast friends have shared two decades of adventure and excitement.
For many years the pair discussed opening a fish and dive business, an operation where the customer is the focus of the planning. With Aruba Premiere the experience is limited only to the imagination, skill levels, and desires.
They offer smaller groups, personalized service, and custom itineraries. They get divers to the chosen sites faster, maximize the time of each dive or fishing trip.
