My husband, 9 year old son, and myself are going to Aruba in April for the 1st time. We don't wanna miss any "must see or do" things. We are booked at the Ren., also, any way to Caracao besides trying to swim there? LOL Thanks! LIN

Can someone recommend a dive operator with an extremely safe and ethical reputation? I am also interested in finding out more about must see locations in my first visit to Aruba which will be in early april? Thank you for any help you may provide.

A must do is the helicopter Island-tour starting from O'stad center.

I found out that there are scheduled flights between the islands of Curasao an Bonaire via Air excel these trips run about $120-150 pp Is it worth the time and expense for a day trip?

I would recommend ABC's off road adventure. they take you to several sites and are very knowledgable. They go to gold mine ruins, national park, natural bridge; you can also snorkel at the natural pool, they provide snorkel gear. One warning; you are very much of road; it is very bumpy but that makes it more fun. Lots of opportunity for great pictures; beautiful views of the island. We just went last week. i'm sorry my kids weren't with us, they would have loved it.
