Radisson cruise - pretty beaches, a wide variety of water sports and more
Almost 318 cruise ships brought 576,000 visitors to Aruba in 2004. Celebrity, Holland America, Radisson, Royal Caribbean, and Windjammer ships begin itineraries in Aruba, and Carnival, Celebrity, Crystal, Holland America, Lindblad, Norwegian, Princess, Royal Caribbean, Silversea, and Windstar all have ships that make port calls here. Cruisers arrive at the Aruba Port Authority, a modern terminal with a tourist information booth, ATMs, and plenty of shops. From the pier, it's a 5-minute walk to the immediately evident shopping districts of downtown Oranjestad. If you're not taking a shore excursion, you can make your way around on your own, allowing some time for the beach (just a 5- to 10-min. taxi ride away), lunch, and shopping. Taxis line up to take cruisers to the beach; if you want to save money, the bus terminal is practically as close as the cabs: After you've walked to the main harborfront road, look for the large pastel bus shelter to your right. Most buses serve the resort areas, but before boarding, ask your driver if he's headed your way. The trip to the Low-Rise area takes about 15 minutes; to the High-Rise area, add another 5 to 10 minutes. Same-day round-trip fare between the beach hotels and the Oranjestad station is $2; a one-way ride is $1.15. Make sure you have exact change. Still a large cargo port, Oranjestad is separating its cruise and cargo facilities and beefing up passenger terminal services.
