Ports of call

Oranjestad, Aruba

1 out of 5

Dry , dusty , Americanized , finally found local food at red fish which was flavorless . Beaches were rocky or extremely shallow , waist deep . Returned our car rental 5 hrs after getting off ship and did not return though there for another 7 hours . Will not be returning .

Lots of interesting facts and sights . Few swimmable beaches , but many snorkeling sites . Jibe city beach was very shallow but clear . Food was good . Happy we rented a car and toured on our own
