As of July 1, Arikok National Park will implement a conservation fee. This fee will help the park to conserve its natural habitat and history, educate visitors and locals about Aruba's nature and culture and develop/maintain recreational sites within the park.

The proceeds earned out of the conservation fee will be used for nature conservation (breeding programs, research and forestation etc.); maintenance of Arikok National Park's infrastructure (roads, hiking trails, stone and cacti fences, etc.); education (educational programs, documentaries and the park library); marketing (awareness, campaigns and promotion materials, etc.)
