Easy activity

Be sure to read the Special Notes further down this page for important requirements and restriction.

Your four-hour sea and land adventure begins when you board a ferry at the pier then transfer to the Seaworld Explorer for a narrated tour of the wreck of the Antilla, a German freighter that was sunk off the coast of Aruba during World War II. The semi-sub is a surface vessel in which you sit five feet below the waterline. You will view sea life and coral and may even spot some pelicans. Then, board your air-conditioned motorcoach for an island driving tour that begins with the California Lighthouse, where you'll take in stunning views of Aruba's coast. Then, drive to the Casibari rock formations to view the outer-worldly landscape, formed by diorite boulders the size of small houses. Finally, head to Aruba's rugged north coast to view the breathtaking Baby Natural Bridge, carved by the surf from solid coral and limestone. Your route back to port takes you past the Bushiribana Gold Mill Ruins.

Special Notes:

The California Lighthouse is currently undergoing restorations however the views are unchanged. Tour sequence may vary. Passengers with cameras should use 400 ASA or higher speed film onboard the Explorer for best results. The walk from the bus to the pier is 300 yards one way.
