Stop by at Zeerovers, a local fisherman’s wharf in Savaneta with the freshest seafood, cleaned and cooked in front of you. Zeerover is a local hangout that over the past years has become a destination by itself. The locals eat and drink here, play pool and have a great time while fishermen prepare their fresh catch. Zeerover is located at oceanfront, on a fish pier in Savaneta. Zeerover is a Dutch word which means “pirate”. Is a very casual eatery that serves fish and drinks at local prices. The freshly caught fish is served in “finger-food” style, straight from colorful baskets. The vibe here is very laid-back and this place is popular with both locals and tourists. On your way in there’s a counter on the left where you can purchase fresh to go or to enjoy on the pier. While the menu is simple and features one or two daily fresh catches, along with some local sides. The backdrop is a most gorgeous ocean view. Kitchen hours are from 11:00 am to 9:00 pm. The kitchen is closed on Mondays.

Sightseeing
Fort Zoutman
Visit the oldest existing building in Oranjestad, built in 1796 to protect the coast.
The fort took two years to be built and was completed in 1798 and named after the Dutch Admiral Johan Arnold Zoutman, who never set foot on Aruban soil, but defeated the English in the North Sea.
The Willem III Tower next to the fort, which today serves as the entrance to the fort, was built in 1868 and served as both a lighthouse and a clock tower. In 1963, after 95 years, the light in the tower was extinguished.
For many of our guests, Fort Zoutman Historical Museum is a first introduction to the history of Aruba. Every Tuesday evening, everyone is invited to come to Fort Zoutman for the welcome party on our island or, as we call it, the Bon Bini Festival from 6:30 pm - 8:30 pm, to celebrate the island's culture and history.

Natural Bridge Aruba
This used to be one of Aruba’s most popular attractions. The bridge was shaped by years of pounding surf on the coral limestone and was one of the largest of these types of spans in the world. It stood some 23 feet above sea level and spanned more than 100 feet. The bridge collapsed on September 2, 2005. Fortunate the collapse happened early in the morning, so no one was around to get injured. There is no admission fee or set hours for visiting. The Natural Bridge is still a very popular spot and there is a smaller bridge (Baby bridge) nearby. Aside of this Bridge there are other natural bridges located in the following areas; Black Stone Beach, Sero Colorado, Wariruri and next to the Natural Pool.

The 30-meter-tall California Lighthouse was built between 1914 and 1916. The steel construction atop the structure which contains the faro line lamp is another 7.5 meter tall. It is located at the northern tip of the island on a hill named Hudishibana (it is a aboriginal name). It was named after the ship California which shipwrecked on the coast prior to the lighthouse’s completion, The California was traveling from Liverpool to Central America with passengers, merchandise, clothes and furniture. The restaurant at the lighthouse used to be the dwelling of the lighthouse keepers. The last keeper was a young man from Curaçao called Jacob Jacobs. The last person to watch over the California Lighthouse was Federico Fingal from Aruba. Any time of day or night is a great time to visit the lighthouse for a 360-degree view on the top.
