Tamarijn Beach Photos

I'll do more when I figure out what I'm doing. Thinking I should have made the photos a little larger. Hopefully you can get a feel for just how wide the beach was. Remember always, a change in wave action can take the beach away just as fast as it brings it in. We saw the beach grow 76-100 feet in one dat in front of the bunker bar.

I am speechless!

...and awestruck. Thanks for the photos.

Mother Nature is awesome and this is just more proof.

Joe, did you check out the gallery http://www.aruba.com/vbgallery/ here? If you go to "upload" you can download the photos directly from your computer and I am pretty sure you can download any size photo, so in other words, your originals.

That is just freakin' amazing. In all my years at the Tamarijn, I have never seen the beach so big.... that is just perfect. And I mean that seriously, no sarcasm.

Ahhh, I am so looking forward to April 5th.....

Just got back from the Divi and we were amazed at the size of the beach also after reading the posts here the last few months. We were there for a day in November (had to come home due to medical emergency with my son) and the beach has doubled in size since then. Just beautiful!!!

Hello Bully, I'm just figuring out how to post photos. I have some very nice ones from the tour including you and Brian sitting on the bench above the highest point. No pictures of the horses or that cow that won't give milk.

I'd like to say again how much fun we had on your tour. It is so unfortunate we didn't have an audio recording, but I guess that's why we have memories.

Thanks again.

To add to the collection... DiviAruba has very kindly allowed me to post her Tamarijn beach photos on the pages below. The photos were taken mid-March 2009, so right about the same time as Snidely

I am still in shock over the beauty of the beach.
