Arikok National Park Unmissables

Arikok National Park encompasses nearly 20% of Aruba’s land, featuring a rugged landscape of volcanic rock and limestone formations. The area contains the island's highest peak, Mount Jamanota, and several ancient caves like Fontein and Guadirikiri, which preserve indigenous Arawak petroglyphs. Along the coastline, the park protects white sand dunes at Boca Prins and the secluded nesting grounds for sea turtles at Dos Playa. It also preserves cultural history through Cunucu Arikok, a restored traditional Aruban farmhouse.
