Closest Beach to the Cruise Port in Aruba - Governor's Beach - Not Pretty But Doable!

Governor's Beach is a little beach about a 15 minute walk from the cruise port in Oranjestad, Aruba. It's not pretty and it's more for locals, but if you just want to walk off the ship and get in the water, here's where you can do it. 🗺️ My Aruba walking tour from the cruise port: https://scottscruises.com/aruba-walking-tour-from-the-cruise-port-a-diy-guide/ 📖 My Queen Elizabeth Southern Caribbean cruise review: https://scottscruises.com/cunard-queen-elizabeth-southern-caribbean-cruise-review-day-1-october-27-2026/ What you'll see: • The walk from the cruise port, past the Renaissance Marketplace • Governor's Beach and the West Deck Island Grill and Bar • The sand, a spot to leave your things and the water • Why it's a quick swim spot, not a beach day destination 🌊 More cruise reviews, news and tips: https://scottscruises.com 📸 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/scottscruises/ 👍 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/scottscruises 🐦 X: https://x.com/scottsanfilippo ▶️ Subscribe for more ship and stateroom tours: https://www.youtube.com/@scottsanfilippo?sub_confirmation=1 #aruba #oranjestad #cruiseport #caribbean #cruise
