Rodgers Beach, Aruba is a small beach immediately west of Baby Beach. It is known for its calm waters and private feel, though it is a public beach. The beautiful blue waters are shallow at first, but further out it becomes a good swimming beach.

History

In the 1950s, the Aruba Esso Club was built as a part of Lago Colony (present-day Seroe Colorado) at Baby Beach. immediately to the south of Rodgers Beach.[1] The club included a restaurant, dance floor, and a baseball stadium. In the lagoon, there was a dock, and there were small shacks, one of which is still standing. Today, it is no more than a large, abandoned building, with one business, a dive shop, still in operation.
