ARIKOK PARK: The home of the Natural Pool

 

Arikok National Park comprises almost 20% of the island, offering gorgeous vistas of Aruba’s rugged terrain, desert-like hills filled with tall cacti, a breathtaking coastline and protected local flora and fauna.

The most popular way to explore Arikok National Park is on an ATV or UTV excursion. A half-day tour is enough to take in the highlights, including the visit to the number one natural wonder on the island the ‘Aruba Natural Pool’.

The Natural Pool, also known as “conchi” or “Cura di Tortuga”, is a natural pool of water located in a very remote area in east Aruba. It is formed by rock and volcanic stone circles. The rugged terrain surrounding the pool makes it accessible only by four-wheel drive, all-terrain vehicles, horseback, or on foot.

The Arikok National Park is also the home of the Guadirikiri Cave and Fontain Cave among other natural attractions.
