Several Promising Sectors are being targeted through projects and investment opportunities in Aruba — including the ones below.

PORT CITY ORANJESTAD
Aruba Ports Authority (APA) has initiated the transformation of a former cargo terminal area near Oranjestad’s cruise terminal into a reformed leisure, residential, and working area.
