We considered taking the local bus to Eagle beach (beautiful!) but instead jumped into one of the privately run vans that were just outside the gates (where you come into the city). Cost my wife and I $5 each and took us right to the beach (no stops). Same for the return trip to the ship.

Those umbrella's are free. Although the venders might say something else. All umbrella's on the island are free. You only have to pay for thr chairs, if you want to. Or you can just ask them to remove the chairs, because you want to use the umbrella.

Hi, and thank you for doing this video on a very economical and easy way to get from the Cruise Port in Aruba to Eagle Beach. QUESTION¹: From the time you boarded the bus, how long did it take you to get to the Eagle Beach? QUESTION²: Can you purchase alcoholic beverages at the Amsterdam Manor and drink them on the beach? QUESTION³: On another Cruise video, the person said to get off the bus at the "Resorts Area" where the Hilton Aruba and RIU Aruba properties are located.... then walk between both properties and your there at the beach?? What say you? Thanks in advance. Keep up the great work. 👍😎⛹️‍♀️🚴‍♂️🤸‍♂️
