The divi divi tree [Caesalpinia coriaria] is a natural compass on Aruba. The trunk usually is bent at a 90 degree angle, parallel to the ground, and points in a southwesterly direction. The tree's unique shape and its compass direction are due to the trade winds that blow from the northeast across Aruba.
