4 Excursions of your cruise Aruba / Best of Aruba (1/2 day-morning) * Aruba / Submarine (1/2 day - afternoon) * Day 4 - Sunday Curacao / The colors of Curacao ( 1/2 daymorning) * This stunning tour of the island shows you the very best of Aruba, appreciating both its natural wonders and its architecture through its most iconic sights. You will pass through the island's capital, Oranjestad, and admire the brightly coloured buildings, before setting off for the Casigari rock formations and the coral bridge. You'll finish your tour at the California Lighthouse, so you can enjoy the panoramic view that encompasses most of the island. A unique opportunity to appreciate the wonders of the tropical waters. Dive as far as 50 metres below the surface of the deep blue sea in a high-tech submarine. Discover coral reefs (sea fans, sponges and more) and a whole host of different fish (angelfish, cofferfish, butterflyfish, surgeonfish and many others). The large portholes provide great views. If you tend to feel claustrophobic, rest assured that there is plenty of room, excellent lighting and good ventilation. Discover Willemstad, the capital of Curacao, on foot and by trolley train. Feast your eyes on the brightly coloured architecture of the UNESCO World Heritage Site city centre. Return to the ship at your own pace.
