My wife and I just booked our second trip for Feb. 19th 2010 at the Renn. We cant wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!We just love the resort and the private beach. This time we are going to Flying fishbones, rent jet skies and maybe do Depalm Island. My wife wants to go to Baby beach too. any other Suggestions are welcome. We are 37 and love the beach, beer and have a great time.

I assume you will have a car at least one day for Baby Beach. I would suggest you see the other side. Bring a cooler for water ext. Go past the high rise area to california lighthouse, continue down the coast(staying out of the SAND) nice wave action, Alto Vista Chapel, Natural Bridge then weave your way around on pavement to the big red anchor & Baby Beach for a early afternoon snorkel. On the way back to the Ren. you can stop at Charlie's Bar est.1941 for a cold one in San Nicholas.

Nailbender, when your at Baby Beach the current can be very strong outside the break water, snorkel inside wre the water changes color, there are fish.

Flying Fishbone ,yes reserve a water side table at sunset or check out their competition Old Man of The Sea, same area. Baby Beach is like 5+ stadiums with 6" to 4-6 ' feet of water, inside the break no waves plenty of fish, bring bagels(density) to hand feed them, or a tube fish food I saw this year in the resort gift shop, there are also palapas for shade.

Another nice & classy restaurant if it is to windy(enclosed) is Windows on Aruba at Divi Links. Great food and service, the ocean view is good any time, and after sunset the golf course lights up.

We were a little confused why we had to wait for a table when we were there in June. Turned out they were trying to seat everyone alongside the windows. We ended up with a view of the island gree and the Links swimming pool. Our choice for Christmas dinner this year.
