🕐 Best time to visit

Early morning or late afternoon; the rocks heat up at midday.

Casibari is a jumble of enormous boulders that seems to have been dropped into the middle of Aruba's cactus country. A path winds up through the rocks to the top, where you look out over the interior towards the Hooiberg and the coast. Entry is free and a visit takes 30 to 45 minutes, so it pairs well with the Hooiberg climb next door. Wear proper shoes: the rock is smooth and gets hot by midday.

Getting there from the port

12-minute taxi or drive inland towards Paradera; easy to combine with the Hooiberg.
