Aruba’s beach experience ranges from resort-lined stretches to broad open shoreline. Use these guides to choose a base that fits your pace, then check local transport and conditions as your dates approach.
Palm Beach or Eagle Beach?
Palm Beach is associated with a lively resort area and easy access to services, while Eagle Beach is known for a wider, more open feel and its distinctive divi-divi trees. Both can suit a relaxed beach holiday; compare the individual guides to decide whether you prefer nearby activity or more room along the shore.
What to check before you go
Confirm beach access, parking or transport, shade and facilities for the specific stretch you plan to visit. Wind and surf conditions vary, so follow local swimming advice. If you plan a boat outing or water sport, compare licensed local operators and confirm what is included before booking.
