Located on the northwestern tip of Aruba near Arashi Beach, the California Lighthouse was built in 1910 to warn ships from the coastline of the island. Named after the S.S. California, which was wrecked nearby in 1891, the lighthouse is now a landmark for tourism, beckoning visitors to experience the most spectacular views of the island's western coastline, which include rocky coral shorelines, white sandy beaches, and the beautifully landscaped golf course of Tierra del Sol. Next to the lighthouse are the California Sand Dunes, which offer loads of family fun, while refreshments, lunch, or dinner are available at the La Trattoria el Faro Blanco (The White Lighthouse) restaurant.
