Rodgers Beach is located at the southern end of Aruba, not far from its more famous cousin, Baby Beach. Although small, Rodgers Beach offers soft sand and warm water. Here’s video with all the details:
That’ll thaw your bones on a cold day in the northern latitudes. Imagine what it was like when Captain Rodgers himself arrived here, before the oil refinery, before anything but the cacti and iguanas. Incredible. Bon dia.
Rancho Josey Snack used to be called Little Josey Snack, and it was a LITTLE joint. In fact, it was about eight by eight feet square with a small awning over a few chairs. The new owner has expanded, but it’s still tiny. I like these kind of places to stop in for a cold drink and a chat. So, here’s a video showing how to get there and an introduction to one my local friends.
It doesn’t get more local than that. And remember, Rancho Josey is on the same road (just further along) as the Savaneta Water Tank, where I showed you that great view a few posts ago. Maybe you can check out them both on the same ride. By the way, don’t ask me why they call it “rancho.” I forgot to ask the owner when I saw him today. A good reason to go back!
Your arrival at the Queen Beatrix Airport in Aruba is generally easy. You’ll deplane, walk through the terminal, show your passport at immigration, and then collect your luggage. Once you exit the secure area, this video will show you where to find cell phone rentals, taxis, transfer buses, and rental cars. Check it out, especially that plane landing and the rope swing into the Caribbean at the end.
Hopefully, this video will help you navigate those first few minutes after you arrive and get you off to a great start enjoying all that Aruba has to offer. Bon dia.
The Spirit of Aruba Community and Book Café hosts all sorts self-improvement programs including nutritional seminars, wellness meetings, and counseling sessions. They also have a diverse library with books in four languages. Take a look at my video visit:
Whether you’re looking for a yoga class or quiet place to read a good story or class to learn about karma, check out the Spirit of Aruba. It’s an interesting place to renew yourself.
