Westpunt Trail — Attraction in Noord overig

Park at Arashi. Start walking the coast to the Westpunt Beach area licated near the Sasarawichi Dunes sign (end of the dirt road). Then, you can return by crossing the dunes to the lighthouse and walk the street back to the car. We saw a trail behind the restaurant at the lighthouse that starts with steps to get back to Arashi quicker but we didn't investigate it.

There is a 100 year old memorial plaque for someone...

The chorus of birds, the sight of cacti standing tall, and the untouched beauty of nature all around made for a serene escape. I arrived at 7:30 am to find I had the tranquility all to myself, a rare luxury. If you're seeking peace and a touch of wild Aruba, this is where...

Great walking area in the morning or on a cloudy day, fairly strong breeze to keep you cool. This area was very interesting on Aruba, not our favorite place but still beautiful and nice to be in nature. There is lots of parking nearby the sanddunes as well and tons of areas to walk around. The trail is quite long, longer than we expected so we didn't see everything. There are also a good amount...
