Oranjestad, Aruba Port Reviews

Going to Aruba in November. None of the excursions seem interesting or worth it to us when looking at them. What’s it like right off the boat? Is there a nice nearby beach and/or bar? Was wanting to have a beach day with drinks! Thanks in advance for your insight!

Beautiful place. It was extremely hot when we went in May, but enjoyed it. We parasailed, which is always a great excursion to do. We wish we could have toured the area more. Maybe next time

VIP Cruise and Snorkle was fantastic. The crew was awesome, the small reef we snorkeled was great. The schooner we were on was in great shape and we had a blast. Would highly recommend

Very nice but didn't have enough time at port. Took submarine tour which took up all the time. We have been to Aruba before and were in the area where hotels on the beach were - liked that port of call much better.

We did the UTV excursion. However, we were only in port a REALLY short time... we only had enough time for the excursion and a quick t-shirt buy at the vendors that are right when you get off the ship.... WE NEEDED MORE TIME.

Snorkeling was a bit bleak as fish were few. Boat experience was very good.

Did the Lighthouse. Great views from the Lighthouse. Very windy. Always very windy. Beaches were beautiful

Beware of timeshare scams! Aruba was probably the most active city with clubs, restaurants and bars. Snorkeling spots become crowded but still awesome!
