Why Go to Aruba?

With powdery white beaches, turquoise waters, and a steady, soothing breeze, Aruba is the very picture of a Caribbean escape. But beyond its postcard-perfect coastline lies a vibrant island full of adventure, culture, and natural beauty.

Roughly the size of Washington, D.C., Aruba offers a rich mix of experiences for every type of traveler. Nature lovers can venture into the rugged landscapes of Arikok National Park, where dramatic cliffs, desert flora, and ancient cave drawings await. Hiking and off-road safari tours provide an up-close look at the island’s untamed side.

For those drawn to the sea, Aruba’s reliable trade winds make it a premier destination for windsurfing, sailing, and kiteboarding. Divers and snorkelers can explore colorful coral reefs and historic shipwrecks beneath crystal-clear waters.

Golfers will appreciate Aruba’s championship courses with year-round sunshine and stunning ocean views. Meanwhile, the capital city, Oranjestad, buzzes with energy β€” from duty-free shopping and lively casinos to charming streets lined with Dutch colonial architecture.
