We rented ATVs and made our own adventure. We started at the coast by the California Light House and made our way to the Oldest Church Alto Vista, got back on main roads and just started picking roads to go down. We found the Natural Pool on our own, didn't know anything about it. We saw signs in the middle... more

My wife and I drove our jeep to the Natural Pool and had very different experiences. Once you get off the main roads, the 4x4 part of the trip is pretty intense. You travel over "paths" that have you holding your breath in some parts and never quite certain you're going the right way. I am definitely the more adventurous... more

The natural pool is hard to get to. We rented ATV's, but were lucky enough to join a jeep tour to find it. We would not have found it on our own. You also want snorkel equipment. It is spectacular. The waves crash up and over the rocks into the pool. People also said the horseback ride to it was... more

Prior to going to Aruba I had looked at the reviews and saw that we should go check out the Natural Pool, but the concierge said it could not be done with a 14 month old. Well I am here to tell you that it can be done. We took our baby jogger and hiked up the road. It is... more

I suggest you Tour with ABC Jeep tour to get there. You will get there and safely. The terrain is wild and no roads to speak of. These guys do it every day. People on there own where found wondering aimlessly throughout the mountainous (coral and lava rock) area. The pool is peaceful and serene, there is cliff diving and... more

I loved it, my wife, not so much. The ride there is very, very bumpy and frankly I wondered whether the jeep would flip over on more than one occasion. We went with ABC Tours. I would not suggest trying to do this by renting your own jeep as it is in a remote area and the path to get... more

When we decided to rent a Jeep for a day of off-roading, we had no idea where to go. After talking with some locals, we were told that the Natural Pool was a must-see. Getting there would be the tough part. Luckily, we "kidnapped" our dive master for some personalized tour guide service. I can't imagine we could have found... more

This will be your most memorable experience in Aruba by far. We rented a Jeep and decided to try our luck getting to the pool. You will basically be bouncing aroun the whole time without really knowing if you are going the right way or not. There are some pretty scary and steep parts on the way there. A lot... more

My friend and I tried several times to get to this place and were unsuccessful. We tried the 1/2 day jeep tour and happy we did. I highly recommend letting a tour guide take you here. You absolutely need a 4x4 to get here. There is no other way. I felt comfortable going with a tour guide knowing that they... more

Got to the Natural Pool via an ABC tour...bring snorkely gear if you don't want to use what is provide..no fins are needed. Where Tevas are sandals with some traction as it is a little bit rocky. Make sure to dive from one of the rocks (after looking beneath to make sure the water is deep enough!)!! more
