These events often feature not just the hunts but also face painting, games, and special appearances by the Easter Bunny, making for a fun-filled day. Beyond the hunts, families can enjoy a range of water sports along Aruba’s coast, from snorkeling among vibrant coral reefs teeming with marine life to paddleboarding on the calm waters of Palm Beach.
