Excursions in Santa Cruz, Aruba

Hey there, fellow adventurers! Are you ready to explore the lesser-known side of Aruba? Forget about the crowded beaches and touristy spots – it's time to dive into the heart of Santa Cruz, where the real magic happens. At Foxiepass, we're all about showing you the authentic Aruban experience, and boy, do we have some treats in store for you!

Arikok National Park: Nature's Playground

First stop on our Santa Cruz adventure? The breathtaking Arikok National Park. This place is like Mother Nature's own theme park, I kid you not! Picture this: rugged landscapes, hidden caves, and wildlife that'll make you feel like you've stepped into a nature documentary. Our guided tours will take you to spots like:

• The Fontein Cave: Ancient Arawak rock paintings that'll blow your mind
• Boca Prins: Sand dunes that'll make you forget you're on a Caribbean island
• Natural Pool: A hidden oasis perfect for a refreshing dip (trust me, you'll need it!)

And the best part? Our guides know all the secret spots where you can snap those Instagram-worthy pics without the crowds. You're welcome!

Casibari Rock Formation: Boulders of Mystery

Next up, we've got the Casibari Rock Formation. Now, I know what you're thinking – "Rocks? Really?" But hear me out. These aren't just any rocks. These massive boulders seem to defy gravity, perched on top of each other like a giant's game of Jenga. Our tour will take you through the winding paths between these natural wonders, and if you're up for a bit of a climb (don't worry, it's not too tough), the view from the top is absolutely spectacular. On a clear day, you can see all the way to Venezuela!

Santa Cruz Church: A Slice of History

For those of you history buffs (or just architecture lovers), we've got to make a stop at the Santa Cruz Church. This little gem might not look like much from the outside, but step inside and you'll be transported back in time. The intricate wooden altar and stained glass windows are a feast for the eyes. And if you're lucky, you might catch one of the local events or festivals happening in the church square. Nothing beats experiencing Aruban culture firsthand!

Donkey Sanctuary: Meet the Locals

Last but definitely not least, we've got a special treat for animal lovers. The Donkey Sanctuary in Santa Cruz is home to over 130 donkeys, each with their own personality (and some with serious attitude, let me tell you!). These adorable creatures were once the main mode of transportation on the island, and now they're living their best lives at the sanctuary. You can feed them, pet them, and even adopt one if you fall head over heels (though you might have trouble fitting it in your suitcase).
