Aruba Reef Creatures Guide (Mini-map and Fish Card)

Aruba is the first of the ABC’s islands, a part of the Netherlands Antilles. You remember the word Aruba from the old Beach Boy’s song, right? Anyway, millions of cruise ship passengers have disembarked for a day in Aruba, and many of them have taken the time to snorkel or scuba dive in Aruba’s beautiful warm waters amongst her rich tropical reefs. This fish card consists of a great little Franko’s mini-map of Aruba on side one to show the whole green island as it sits on the blue Caribbean Sea. Aruba’s roads and towns, plus major landmarks and hills can be seen. 35 Aruba dive sites, including notation about which ones are good for snorkeling and which ones are good for diving are shown. Aruba’s beaches that are good for just hanging out are also shown. Side two shows 100 plus Caribbean reef creatures that hang out in Aruba’s warm waters. They include butterflyfishes, wrasses, damselfishes, parrot fishes, grunts, snappers, rays, sharks and trunkfishes. A sampling of tropical Caribbean invertebrates of Aruba are shown too, including the lobster, coral crab, black sea cucumber, and cushion sea star, corals and sponges. The vivid colors of this Aruba fish card will make you want to be there, and when you go take me, Franko along! Well, if you can’t take me to Aruba, at least take my fish card along so you can know what you see when you scuba dive or snorkel in Aruba’s warm, crystal waters.
