Aruba Rental Explore On Your Own

One of the sites we recommend is to visit the Mangel Halto beach, located in Savaneta Aruba. This beach rarely gets visited by most guests and is definitely a local favorite!

Baby beach is a must see when visiting Aruba. Beautiful shallow waters, crystal clear snorkeling areas, and just a wonderful soothing atmosphere.

The Colorado lighthouse sits at the southernmost point of the island. The main attraction isn't actually the lighthouse however, it's the stunning view from the edge of the south point. On a clear day, you can even see the hills of Venezuela from there.

On the northern coast sits the abandoned Bushiribana gold mill that once processed ore from mines in the nearby hills during Aruba's gold rush of the nineteenth century. A very scenic attraction for pictures.

Alto Vista Chapel is a small Catholic chapel that stands on the hills above the north shore near Noord Aruba. The church, painted on the outside in stark bright yellow, makes it a conspicuous religious monument for people to visit.

The old stone California lighthouse stands as a silent sentry in the area known as "Hudishibana," near the island's northwestern tip. The lighthouse is named for the U.S ship - the California - which sunk about two years previous to its construction in 1910. The site offers spectacular sunsets as the final shades of sunshine give way to a brilliant azure canopy. Perched on a high seaside elevation, the lighthouse has become one of Aruba's scenic trademarks and offers a picture perfect view of the island's western coastline of sandy beaches, rolling sand dunes and rocky coral shorelines. The lighthouse has completed a recent restoration in May 2016 which coincided with the 100th anniversary of the completion of the lighthouse. It's free to view and take pictures of the lighthouse but to climb up there is a fee.

Casibari is a settlement of Paradera, north of Hooiberg, in Aruba.[1] Evidence of prehistoric rock drawings is still visible at the site.[2][3] "Casibari" is an Indian name of Arawak (possibly Taíno) origin and can be explained as follows: CA as a prefix: where there are, SIBA (or CIBA) is stone and RI as a suffix is: good; so Where There are Good Stones. The name can also be explained as follows: CASIBA (or CACIBA) is hollow or cavern with RI is good; so Good Hole (cavern). [4] This toponym also stands for cas di baril, house of barrel, the first tin house of Aruba, made from oil barrels.

Ayo Rock Formations are monolithic rock boulders located on the island of Aruba in the Caribbean, near Ayo village and about 3.2 km (2.0 mi) from the defunct natural bridge towards Casibari. Similarly, the Casibari Boulders are about 3.2 km (2.0 mi) inland between Natural Bridge and Oranjestad, the capital of Aruba, to the west of Boca Andicuri.

Tres Trapi Beach is located on Aruba’s northwestern coast. This secluded stretch of sand boasts crystal-clear turquoise waters, soft white sands, and spectacular views of the Caribbean Sea. Unlike some of Aruba’s more popular beaches, Tres Trapi Beach offers a tranquil escape for those seeking a more laid-back beach experience.

One of the unique features of Tres Trapi Beach is its rugged and rocky coastline, which provides a sense of seclusion and privacy. The Caribbean’s surrounding cliffs and boulders offer excellent opportunities for snorkeling and diving, allowing visitors to explore the vibrant underwater world. Visitors can also enjoy swimming, sunbathing, or relaxing under palm trees.
