ARUBA – 2023.

Posted byUncle JackPosted inAmericasTags:,

Aruba, advertises itself as “One Happy Island.” I visited Aruba Thursday, April 13, 2023.

Aruba, officially the Country of Aruba, is a constituent country of the Kingdom of the Netherlands physically located in the mid-south area of the Caribbean Sea, about 18 miles north of the Venezuela peninsula of Paraguaná.

I took a real submarine ride 140 feet below the surface and then walked into town. Much bigger town than Grand Turk’s. It’s a typical touristy port, selling gold watches and diamond bracelets!

Those are not low cost resorts. Locals come out on these barrier coral islands to spend the weekend, “roughing it.” I’m told some are quite elaborate with some amenities that can be seen from the Caribbean Sea side.
This excursion is not wheelchair accessible. It was very challenging for some to climb down the ladder.
