Fontain Cave

I admit to being a little freaked out by the bats. We could hear them squeaking and saw one flying about twenty feet away. I would have been reluctant to enter if we hadn't been with a guide. I am glad I did. The cave markings were interesting and this is the first cave I have been in that felt warm and not cold.

The cave is small, but a very nice park ranger walked us around and showed us things. Unfortunately people have defaced much of the cave, but some ancient drawings are still there for viewing. There is a fish pond nearby that you can stick your feet into and the fish bible on your toes also.

Not much of a cave to be honest, only a few yards deep, but there are some great pillars inside. The old planation ruins are very close by as is the little pool where you can have the local fish clean the dry skin off your feet if that's your think.

Cave with indigenous paintings that are well preserved and quite bright red. Look on the roof for the paintings in the first part of the cave. Recommend waiting to take a tour of the cave with a park guide. Very informative. Accessible by regular car in Arikok national park. $22US daily park fee. If in regular rental car drive very slowly over the rocky runoff areas along the road or you will bottom them out.

This is a place to learn about Aruban history. The guides here are passionate about their history and culture. Please come here. There is history written on these walls. There is also a spot to have fish nibble your toes.

Cave with a lot of cave art. Also little stream with fish that you can put your feet in.. This is a small little place but the kids thought it was the coolest thing and didn't want to leave. The cave itself is shallow place you can walk around and visit and also somewhat dark as you go in. Careful to stay on the path. Not as grand as the other cave, but has the art and stream outside of the cave.

The interesting part of this cave is near the entrance, where there are indigenous rock paintings in red paint. Not all of the images can be clearly interpreted – let your imagination run wild. The cave itself is small, as the rear part is closed off to the public. Unfortunately, some new graffiti and carvings have destroyed the entrance area.

One of the most underrated experiences on the island. Cost $22 per person which is a little high given the bats were blocked off, and they had a few things closed. But still having fish nibble on your feet is amazing!
