Beaches
The southern, leeward coast is lined with beautiful, sparkling
white sand and is commonly known as the Turquoise Coast for
the colorful tint of the water. There are many secluded sections
of private beach or more popular strips by the hotels. Baby
Beach down at the eastern tip is a natural wading pool that
is perfect for families with small children. The northern
coast is more rugged and windswept and can be dangerous for
swimming.

Deep-Sea Fishing
Boats can be chartered to fish for sailfish, marlin, tuna,
bonito and wahoo or just to go out watching for dolphins
off the coast of Savaneta. The international White Marlin
Competition is held in Aruba each October.

Scuba-Diving & Snorkeling
The offshore waters offer great visibility of up to 100 feet
and the 42 major dive sites provide an amazing variety of
underwater activity: numerous shipwrecks from 25 to 400 feet
deep are waiting to be explored, and the waters are teeming
with sea life including manta rays, barracuda, and the rare
green moray. All levels of diving from beginning to advanced
are available, and instruction and equipment can be arranged
for at any of the major hotels. For the less adventurous,
glass-bottomed boats and submarines make trips out to view
many of the aquatic sites.
