California Lighthouse

ALTHOUGH RESTORED IN MAY OF 2016 IN CELEBRATION OF ITS 100 YEAR ANNIVERSARY THE CALIFORNIA LIGHT HOUSE HAS STOOD THE TEST OF TIME. Originally build between 1914 and 1916 the California Lighthouse is located on the northernmost part of the island. Standing over 100 feet this tower is made by stone block. Names after the S.S California which sunk previously to its construction in 1910, the California light house offers unique 360 degree view of the entire island of Aruba. Don’t forget to contact our tour navigator to experience this historical land mark when vacationing on the happy island of Aruba

The old stone California lighthouse stands as a silent watchman in the area known as “Hudishibana,” near the island’s northwestern tip. It beckons visitors to the most spectacular views of the island.

The lighthouse was named after the S.S. California – which sunk previous to its construction in 1910. Perched on a high seaside elevation, the lighthouse has become one of Aruba’s scenic trademarks and offers a picture perfect view of the island’s western coastline of beaches and coral shorelines.

Any time till 7:00 pm is a great time to visit the lighthouse for a 360 degree view, yet the sunset is hands down the right time of day to be there as the big orange ball of fire gently dips into the Caribbean Sea. Keep your eyes open, you might see the green flash.

The lighthouse is now open everyday from 9:00 am – 7:00 pm, $5 admission fee no reservations required. For any information or special events please contact us at info@arubawalkingtours.com or visit our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/CaliforniaLighthouseAruba/
