Aruba’s tourists make a difference with the “Carry Your Cup’ pledge

MALMOK — The popular tourist attraction,
Jolly Pirates proves eco-friendly- with its
invitation to their guests to participate in
a #Carryyourcup Campaign.

It’s a simple concept. Jolly Pirates asks
visitors to help to reduce waste with the
#carryyourcup pledge. Bring your own
cup or purchase a $2 Jolly Pirate reusable
BPA-free option instead of using wasteful
single-use disposable plastic.

You can do your part to reduce waste by
using a reusable cup aboard a Jolly Pi-
rates morning or afternoon snorkel cruise
or a lovely sunset sail. Guests are en-
couraged to join the movement, to limit
wasteful plastic in Aruba’s landfill and
from inadvertently polluting the Sea.

“If you love the ocean like we do, you
naturally want to do something about
it”, explains the ship’s Captains Julio, Ron
and Edwin.

Reusable cups can be purchased at the
Jolly Pirates souvenir shop. Both great-
looking and durable, the Jolly Pirates
BPA-free reusable cup provides an easy
way to join the #carryyourcup pledge for
a cleaner Aruba and a healthier environ-
ment for sea critters, fish and wildlife.

The Jolly Pirates #carryyourcup cam-
paign is just one of many eco-friendly
ways in which the popular excursion
company, is striving to support more
clean Aruba efforts. The Jolly Pirates
team participates in Aruba Reef Care
projects, Beach clean ups and also par-
ticipates in the #5minutebeachcleanup
to pick up trash that others have left be-
hind.

Purchase a souvenir cup when you visit
the Jolly Pirates ticket shop at MooMba
Beach.

You can also make your paperless res-
ervations online and save up to 20% on
your tickets on the company’s new web-
site www.jolly-pirates.comq
