For panoramic view of the entire island. They are closed when we got there for a private event.
The view from the mountain is still splendid.

Very tight squeeze, and only room for one to go up and down the steps at a time, so recommend going during non-peak times, but other than that, great view at the top with a wonderful breeze.

We arrived in Aruba on Friday afternoon. After getting settled we drove to lighthouse and paid the $5 fee. We embarked up the tight spiral staircase with ability to touch both sides of staircase. There are landings about every 19 steps. Folks are great about saying “coming up/down”…so courteous to pass. Landing have windows for welcome ventilation. The last grouping of steps is quite narrow but doable (definitely come down facing steps on the way down!)
Phenomenal 360 view at top. Was a great welcome to “one happy island”
Everyone respectful, patient and helpful!

Don’t bother wasting your time. We use Viator ALL OF THE TIME and this is our first negative review. We had to call Viator in advance and buy tickets, there was no other option. Operating hours start at 9am, we arrived at 9am. An adjacent vendor told us the tour operator called him and was going to the bank and would be a few minutes late. She finally arrived at 10:40am. So, after being an hr and 40 minutes late, and a dozen of us in line, she comes be-bopping in, no apologies, no explanation, just starts collecting tickets and cash. She looked like she just rolled out of bed, and forgot to put most of her clothes on. Totally UNPROFESSIONAL!!
