At one point, Aruba was the largest exporter of aloe in the world, with almost two-thirds of the island covered in plants. You will have the opportunity to take a tour through the state-of-the-art Aruba Aloe Factory and learn more about its history in the adjacent museum.
You'll also have the chance to marvel at Aruba's renowned natural marvel, the Casibari Rock Formations. These immense tonalite boulders form a captivating cluster, with walking trails and steps guiding hikers through them to reach the summit, where they can enjoy breathtaking 360-degree views.
Next, you will make a short stop at the Bushiribana Gold Mill Ruins on your way to the Alto Vista Chapel. The chapel was built on the site of the first Catholic church built in Aruba in 1750 by a Spanish missionary. It is a special place for peace and contemplation, surrounded by the Aruban countryside. Following the Chapel, you will visit the famous California Light House, named after a ship called the Californian, which has the distinction of having received distress signals from the Titanic as she went down in icy waters in 1912. This area offers some of the most beautiful scenic views of Aruba.
Your fun-filled day exploring Aruba attractions ends with a refreshing swim (sea and weather conditions permitting) in the pristine waters of Aruba as you visit Arashi Beach, renowned for its beautiful white sand and great snorkeling (not included).
