Question Regarding Aruba

[ryanh]

I was looking over the entry requirements for Aruba, and came across this one bullet point. I was curious as to whether anyone has visited Aruba in a vessel less than 46 feet, or anchored instead of mooring.

if so requested, the tourist has to be able to prove to the satisfaction of the migration officer that he/she has a valid reservation for an accommodation in Aruba (e.g. hotel or apartment) or that he/she owns property in Aruba (a residence, condominium, apartment, timeshare apartment or a pleasure yacht moored in Aruba with a length of at least 14 meters (46 feet) measured at the nominal water line);

Here is the website that I found the information on:

Thanks,

You are better to use Noonsite.com — to get your clearance info. For Aruba it is here Aruba —

Of the ABCs, Bonaire is the most cruiser friendly and a great place to hang and dive. Curacao is decent to get things done on the boat. We gave Aruba a pass on our way to Cartegena.
