About Oranjestad

Oranjestad is Aruba's small harbour capital, a Caribbean town of pastel Dutch gables, old forts and shopping streets on a dry, sunny coast.

Oranjestad sits on Aruba's leeward coast, where the island is flat and arid and edged with cacti, and its centre mixes Dutch colonial gables with Caribbean colour. Fort Zoutman, dating from the 1790s, is among the oldest buildings in town and holds the island's historical museum, with the Willem III Tower, a later addition, beside it. Wilhelmina Park, a small tropical garden by the water, is named after the Dutch queen.
