Ferries
Even though Venezuela is nearby and the "former sister islands" (Curaçao and Bonaire) are not far either, there are no ferry routes serving these destinations. In short, Aruba can only be reached by plane, cruise ship, cargo vessel, or private yacht.
Cargo
Thanks to its oil industry, the island enjoys good cargo connections at the port of Oranjestad.
