Beach Vacations in Aruba Caribbean
Beach resorts in Aruba belong to the cleanest and most beautiful tourist spots in the world, being dotted with a wide array of high class hotels which offer the best all inclusive vacation packages in Caribbean! On the southwestern coast of the island holiday makers find one great beach after another, each with a distinct atmosphere and diverse recreational activities. Almost all beaches in Aruba are public and the access is very easy because most accommodation estates are settled close to it.
Majority of resorts feature showers, shade huts and water sport equipment for rent, allowing holiday makers to enjoy some of the best beach vacations available on the tourist scene! People searching for more privacy can take trips to several smaller beaches which offer the same great blue waters and white sands without crowd and fancy atmosphere! While most of the best beaches in Aruba are concentrated on the southwestern coast, a few less frequented sites on the eastern shore offer excellent opportunities for deep sea fishing, windsurfing, scuba diving and sightseeing.
Below are listed a few of the favorite points of interest on this Caribbean island.
Arashi Underwater Park
Arashi, Boca Catalina and Malmok are beaches located near California Lighthouse, at the northwestern side of the island, and make up the Arashi Underwater Park. The calm water, gentle currents, shallow coral reefs and great visibility make this spot very popular for scuba diving, snorkeling and swimming. Divers can see there large elk horn coral, sea sponges and schools of colorful fish at just six feet below the water's surface!
Hadikurari Beach
Hadikurari Beach, settled south to Malmok Beach, is well known for its fantastic windsurfing opportunities. The Hi-Winds Pro-Am windsurfing competition takes place there in June, but daring surfers entertain spectators year-round. It's also named Fishermen's Huts because numerous shade huts and picnic tables are available there for public use.
Palm Beach
This is perhaps the most frequented beach resort in Aruba, featuring miles of soft sand, excellent swimming conditions, crystal-clear waters and numerous aquatic sport amenities. Palm Beach is also one of the best equipped and serviced beaches on the island! Some of best hotels in Aruba overlook this popular beach, guaranteeing only a short walk to "paradise" to holiday makers who booked there accommodation. Additionally, many shops offer for sale water sports equipment, shade huts and many other products.
Eagle Beach
South to Palm Beach, behind a rocky hill, is settled Eagle Beach. With even more cleaner sand and waters than Palm Beach and also fewer high end resorts, Eagle Beach is a favorite spot among vacationers. Amenities for many water sports and beach activities are abundant and is also an ideal picnic area.
Manchebo Beach
Continuing south to Eagle Beach, the island’s widest stretch of unspoiled sand is named Manchebo Beach. The surf is much stronger than on Eagle Beach and therefore motorized water sports aren't allowed, making the sense of tropical seclusion more powerful and relaxing...
Sonesta Island
Sonesta Island, a 40 acre private retreat with spectacular sandy beaches, secluded coves and protected swimming areas is also a favorite place. Tourists can rest in hammocks under shady palm trees waving in the cooling breeze or practice scuba diving, snorkeling and swimming.
Baby Beach
Baby Beach is known as the premier family beach in Aruba, featuring calm turquoise waters and endless white sand... Located at the southeastern end of the island in the area called Seroe Colorado, this calm lagoon with a long beach is ideal for swimming and snorkeling.
Rodgers Beach
Like many other beaches in Aruba, Rodgers Beach features soft sand and allows excellent swimming in calm waters. The surf at Rodgers is stronger as at Baby Beach, but safe recreation is still possible for the whole family.
Dos Playa
Dos Playa is a small beach lined by a rocky coastline. Vacationers searching for a challenging surfing experience find certainly at Dos Playa the best spot for this sport!
