Top Beaches in Aruba

My advice is to take a stroll down the beach and explore the little beachside bars and food shacks. They’re often overlooked but can have delicious local bites at great prices.

My advice is to bring your own snorkeling gear and some snacks. Renting equipment can add up and the beach food is a bit pricey for what you get.

If you’re looking for snorkeling, head to Baby Beach instead. It’s only a 30-minute drive from Palm Beach and way better for marine life. I wasted time trying to find good spots at Palm Beach!

Get there before 10 AM if you can, or like, enjoy the sunrise vibe. The beach gets packed later and it can be hard to find a good spot. Trust me, it’s worth the early wake-up!

If you want to rent a beach cabana, do it as soon as you get there. They get snatched up quick, especially on weekends. I had to settle for a spot under a tree after waiting too long!

I suggest getting to Arashi Beach around 9 AM. The morning light is perfect for photos and you’ll snag a good spot before it gets crowded. Plus, the vibe is super chill early on.

I recommend bringing your own snacks and drinks to save some cash. The beach bars are nice, but the prices can add up quick! Pack a cooler and enjoy a picnic by the sea.

My advice is to visit early in the morning, around 8 AM. The crowds are lighter, and you get the best spots on the beach.

My advice is to pack some snacks and drinks. The prices at the bars can add up quickly and there are some beautiful picnic spots if you want to save a few bucks.

I think renting a cabana is worth it if you want some privacy and shade. It’s great for chilling after swimming with the flamingos and gives you a nice base to return to.

I recommend getting to Renaissance Island right when it opens at 7 AM. It’s way less crowded, and you can snag the best beach chairs and spots by the flamingos right away
