Does anyone know if there are any casinos on Aruba, and if so if there are any access or age restrictions? I am not a major gambler but I find it a fun way to spend an evening on vacation.

There are about ten casinos in Aruba (at least). I'm not sure what the age restrictions are, since no one is going to mistake me for a young pup anymore.

I believe that the legal gambling age is 18, though I have read that it is not widely enforced. It might be strictly enforced in casino's though.

You may guess from my name here that I am a bit of a card! My wife likes to dabble with the roulette wheel so we may well find ourselves seeking out a casino this time. I usually prefer to stay outside but it 's good for a change.

Thanks for the replies everyone. I took a year out from college so I am pretty sure I'll be ok age wise. I like routlette too, seems to be a better chance of winning but then again I'm not skilled enough at math to play card games! How much do you usually spend in one visit?

My personal rule re spending in casinos (or any other gambling activity) is I spend what I can afford to lose . It is easy to get carried away on vacation of course.
