Mangel Halto is a shallow lagoon and recreational dive site near Pos Chikito in Aruba. In 2019, it was designated as a marine reserve within the Marine Park Aruba. After saying “hi” to all the fish, we’ll head to San Nicolas, a unique and upcoming part of Aruba.

Stop 4
Next, let's visit the famous Baby Beach! Baby Beach is renowned for its beautiful half-moon sandy expanse in a calm lagoon. The waters are shallow, making it an ideal beach for families with children. Swimmers can wade out for a long distance and still touch the seafloor.
5
For the third stop, Tres Trapi! The water is crystal clear, and it's great for families with lots of wildlife. You can snorkel, swim, and see sea turtles.
