As one of the most revisited destinations in the Caribbean, Aruba — One happy island — is an island of contradictions, where pristine turquoise waters collide against the desert-like terrain of the north shore; where peace and relaxation coexist with wild and rugged adventures; where Dutch influence meets American ease and where a diverse history parallels a bright future.
Just awarded a top spot on Lonely Planet’s Best in Travel 2020 list, based on the island’s ambitious sustainability efforts and the revitalization of San Nicolas, the cultural district, Aruba offers something for beach-lovers, adrenaline junkies, relaxation-seekers and everyone in between.
The island is a slice of paradise with breathtaking beaches, a booming culinary scene of over 300 restaurants with 25+ located ideally on the water, world-famous festivals and events, exciting land and water activities, art galleries and museums, sumptuous spas, championship golf, exclusive shopping and signature experiences such as cooling off in Conchi, Aruba”s natural pool.
