We recently (Sept. 2022) did a Carnival excursion on Aruba called "Best of Aruba and Eagle Beach".  I had trouble finding information, so I thought I would give my report.  We departed on tour at 8:30 am.  Toured the island with a few stops:

 

Natural Bridge:  drinks, ice cream, gift shop available.  Restrooms $1 tip, nice and clean.

 

Stopped by Rock formation for 15-20 minutes.  Restrooms are very tiny, no toilet paper.  Do not use these unless necessary.

 

Stopped by California for pictures only, no restrooms.  5 minute stop

 

Stopped at Eagle  Beach for 1 and 1/2 hours.  Arrived about 11:30 am and left about 1 pm.  Bus dropped us off and left; came back later.  There was a park and beach refreshment store (definitely sold drinks, maybe food).  I don't know the name.  Restrooms $1 tip; clean and nice.

 

Beach beautiful.  All loungers were rented by the time we got there, but we rented a couple of sit up chairs for $5 each.  Better for our needs.  Bus driver said loungers w/umbrella were $20 each.  When we were leaving about 12:30 pm or so, the guy renting told a couple they were $10 each, with umbrella.  (2nd rental of the day).

 

Sand was powder soft all the way to water, beautiful water, strong waves as Hurricane Ian was forming.

 

I cannot seem to attach pictures to commentary.  Hope you can follow.
