Workation in San Nicolas: the essentials
Aruba's second city grew around oil: the Lago refinery at the southeastern end of the island brought workers from across the Caribbean in the 20th century and gave San Nicolas a more working-class character than Oranjestad. Today the large murals on many of its walls are what most people come to see. Just offshore, the San Nicolas Bay Reef Islands are five coral islets where terns breed, and Baby Beach is close by. Queen Beatrix International Airport is about 17 km away. The centre is quieter and less polished than the capital's.
