We finally make landfall and our first port of call is in Aruba! Join Dockside Travel for the sixth episode in our series on the Celebrity Beyond as we tour Oranjestad, Aruba and visit Eagle Beach. We will show you around the cruise port and how to arrange a taxi in Aruba. Later in the day we take a walk through the downtown core to do some shopping and sightseeing before heading back onboard for dinner at Normandie and a late night comedy show. In this episode you will see the one of the best beaches in Aruba - perhaps even in the entire Caribbean. Eagle Beach is like something out of a post card or travel magazine and it is easy to get to and has all the amenities you need once you get there - sun, sand, and cold drinks!
