The California Lighthouse

Sun
9:00 AM - 7:00 PM

You won't be the first person to stop here today.

The California Lighthouse has been appearing on Aruba itineraries for so long that it feels almost mandatory. Tour buses stop here, rental cars stop here, and people who swore they weren't going to do the tourist stuff somehow end up here too. On a clear day you can see a surprising amount of the island, which explains why this has remained one of Aruba's most visited stops for decades.
