Arikok National Park, Santa Cruz

Do yourself a favor- rent a 4x4 and spend a few hours going through every bit of this park. It’ll be worth it, I promise! It’s beautiful and there’s a lot to see. And if you’re like me, you’ll want to get out the car to see them all so make sure you have enough time to do so. There are sand dunes, cliffs, tide pools, beaches, caves; you name it. My whole family had a blast just exploring and we’d do it all again.

This was truly an amazing experience. The caves were really cool, you have to see the beaches and the mountains. You definitely need a vehicle that has 4 wheel drive and high clearance. The hiking can be tough but a must see. The employees were really friendly and helpful. We learned so much from Robert about the park and also the whole island. He made the experience so well worth it. Thank you!!

I visited this place with some friends not so long ago and let me tell you..it was very beautiful. I enjoyed being in the nature like that. I can't explain how I felt but all I know it that I felt great and I recommend going so you can feel it too. Tip: Rent a car that you can go off-road with.

If your car isn't a 4x4 please be careful driving up the mountain! This is a gorgeous national park with many things to see! Unfortunately, the park was closing when I arrived so I didn't get to see much! However, I did drive up the mountain to see the beach and parts of the caves! very cool experience!

This is one of my favorite places to visit in Aruba. If you are visiting the island don't leave this park out of your plans. The experience to see natural habitat if unique. Make sure to ask the staff in the visitor center for information. They are kind friendly respectful and resourceful. Enjoy the visit!
