Of several caves in Aruba, three caves of Aruba are known, which are visible in deep cracks in the windward face of the island. All three caves are located in the Arikok National Park. The most notable are Quadirikiri Cave, Fontaine Cave and Khuliba Cave.

Night bats take cover in all of these caves. The importance that the Aruban government attaches to these three caves stems from the fact that postage stamps depicting them were issued by Post Aruba in April 2009 in specific denominations. The 175 cent stamp depicts Baranka Sunu Cave, the 200 cent stamp depicts Fontaine Cave, and the 225 cent mark marks the entrance to the Quadirikiri Cave.
