California Dunes

Large rolling sand dunes located along the isolated northwestern tip of Aruba, which create spectacular scenery and a chance to explore by four-wheel drive.

Reviewed By todmell - Schenectady, United States

We didn't have a 4x4, so we just pulled over with our rental car to walk the dunes. We first visited the California Lighthouse and then pulled over on the side of the road at the bottom of the hill near the dunes. We walked and took some great pictures. The sand felt great and our boys enjoyed the feeling of being on a new adventure!
