California Dunes and Lighthouse Aruba’s California Lighthouse is predominant on many postcards and brochures and was named after the SS California which sunk near this location. Although the lighthouse is closed to the public, visitors can enjoy the views of the surrounding rugged sand dunes which are beautifully speckled by cacti. The location is ideal for spotting the difference between the rough seas to the east and the calmer waters of the Caribbean to the west. Photo Credit: Aruba Tourism Authority
