This small northwestern cove is one of Aruba’s best-known shore-snorkelling stops. The water is often clear and the reef begins close to shore, making early mornings especially appealing.
Beach safety
Check the cove before entering and choose a sandy entry that matches your ability. Steps and rocks require care; stay alert to boats and do not swim toward offshore excursions.
Parking & access
The Aruba Tourism Authority describes a roadside parking area with steps down to the beach. Allow for the descent when carrying equipment; step-free access and current charges are not confirmed.
