Golf

Northwest end of the island
Tee times 7 am-5 pm daily

Aruba has only one championship golf course, and it's a beauty, with 18
holes overlooking Aruba's northwest coast. Designed by Robert Trent
Jones II, Tierra del Sol is a splash of green in the desert countryside - a
Palm-Springs-in-the-Caribbean experience.
Tee times are available at a prime-time high-season fee of $145. During
the afternoon, fees drop to $88, and low-season play is priced at $98 in the
mornings and $78 in the afternoons. The real bargain is five days of golf
from May through October for $400. If you plan to spend a lot of time on the
golf course during your vacation, compare package deals offered by many
of the major resorts.
