The island is surrounded with water. I am not sure if they have rivers or lakes. I haven't heard any of it. If I am not mistaken, the beach is the main attraction of Aruba. The tourists would visit because of the place and its beach. The more tourists they attract, the more money they earn. The income earned would help develop the island and the cycle repeats. Do you know what ocean is near Aruba?

There must be some way of connecting water from one side of the island to the other. What if they have to transport something from one side of the island to the other? Do they just take a boat all the way around the island?

a ship or a plane maybe..

Beaches are their best tourist destinations that is why I think it is considered their majority source of income. Water sports are also one of the attractions.

I thought that Arubans would have come with some interesting and innovative ways to travel about the island that didn't include using boats or traditional means of transportation.

That's right. And Aruba is a small island so there probably no lake or rivers there.

They don't have any rivers? Does that mean that they have man-made things on the island? They must have a lake or something. They do have a golf course, after all.
