Aruba Holidays

Things to do and when to visit

Aruba is widely known for its white, sandy beaches on the western and southern coasts of the island, relatively sheltered from fierce ocean currents, and this is where most tourist development has taken place. The south coast is surrounded by coral reef and shallow coral formations await snorkellers, as well as over twenty dive sites and eleven diver–friendly wrecks.

The climate is tropical marine, with little seasonal temperature variation. Because of its location south in the Caribbean there is very strong sun, but a constant light breeze keeps the temperature pleasant. The temperature is almost constant at about 27C.

Aruba's crystal clear oceans and sparkling white beaches make it a very romantic getaway. Most of the people on the island speak English and are very friendly. Arubans are very aware that their economy is completely dependent on tourism – so Arubans are polite to tourists, and even street vendors don't generally seek to rip off their customers.

Aruba is ideal for honeymooners, couples and also families; paradise awaits all those that choose to holiday here.
