Visit the Donkey Sanctuary

Although not originally native to Aruba, donkeys have existed here for 500 years as they were the primary mode of transportation until cars were introduced on the island. At that point, many Arubans no longer had the need for their formerly beloved donkey. Thankfully they now have a safe haven at the Donkey Sanctuary where each donkey is given a name and receives food and water, shelter, quality medical care and lots of love.

We encourage you to plan a visit to the Sanctuary and see for yourself what so many others have discovered, that there’s more to a donkey than what you think you knew.

• Pay the donkey sanctuary a visit and help out with cleaning and feeding
• Adopt a donkey for an annual fee
• Make a donation
