George's cycle ... has been in Aruba for years... very clean and good ATV and honest....really not a lot of things to see... can go to the donkey farm... the old natural bridge that fell in is over by the Gold mill......and there is an small church over there not too far away... all three, gold mill, old natural bridge, and small church, are near each other. Mostly it is just rock on that side of the island and interesting to look at and see the waves crash....and have fun on an ATV..... If you are limited on what you can do, I would dive the old ship wreck from WWII that is 100 yards off the coast by the light house.. that is a lot of fun...
