Hard Rock Cafe

A question for those familiar with Aruba. According to Hard Rock's web site, the Hard Rock Cafe is in Noord. How far is that from where the cruise ships dock in Oranjestad? We don't plan on eating there, but if it's not too far away, I'd like to pay a visit and maybe pick up a souvenir.

It's a 10-15 minutes taxi ride from the cruise terminal depending on traffic.

Thanks. That's doable. We'll be in port for 13 1/2 hours. I'm sure we can squeeze in a visit to the Hard Rock Café while we're there.:)

There was a small Hard Rock store downtown, along the front street. I'm not sure if it's still open, but it just sells their merchandise. You can check there first. When you leave the port, walk to your right. It is on the right hand side, right before the straw market. If you don't see it, the bus station is across the street. Take the number 10 bus to Palm Beach, and ask the driver to let you off across from Hard Rock .

Thanks for that info. Hatteras. I'll look for the store while we're exploring the area.
