Aruba and Curacao with 3 year old

Hey All,

Any recommendations near the port for things to do with a little boy?

Thanks,

I would go to the PORTS OF CALL section for this info. You will probably get tons of ideas..

The problem with that is those forums are very inactive but thanks for the recommendation.

Sorry. I always have tons of luck. I would just put my question in the "search" box and I would always get info. Wish I could help. (no kids) :)

Here's a few ideas:

Palm Beach - very calm water

DePalm Island - has a water park, some of it appropriate for small children

Butterfly farm

Donkey Sanctuary

Phillips Animal Garden

DePalm Island is certainly worth considering. Your young son would have a great time there and you will too. :D

Beaches seem to be the best thing with small toddlers...stay as long as feasible for your child.

A guidebook will really help if beaches aren't your thing. Most countries have zoos, or some sort of animal stuff...most kids like that. A guidebook will tell you EVERYTHING in each place!!! Get one...libraries have them, or buy one. Great investment.
