The island of Aruba is a destination for many looking to slow down and enjoy the natural beauty of the southern Caribbean Sea. Thanks to a uniquely arid climate, compared to other humid Caribbean Islands, visitors can expect warm, sunny weather during almost the entire year.

Aruba is just 21 miles long and 17 miles from Venezuela. 18 percent of the island sits within Arikok National Park, where visitors can explore limestone formations and acres of dry landscape laced with cactus, plantation ruins, and old gold mines. Other nearby attractions include caves, a butterfly farm, and a natural land bridge that stretches over Photo by Salvatore Freni the ocean. Venture beyond the typical tourist areas, and you’ll also be able to find stretches of secluded beaches. Or, head to the capital city of Oranjestad to see examples of colonial Dutch architecture or shop at the Royal Market.

The official language of Aruba is Dutch, but English is widely used. Flights to Aruba land at Reina Beatrix International Airport.

Aruba’s sustainable hotels offer plenty of ways to relax, whether it’s sitting in the shade of a palm tree by the pool, taking a yoga class, or relaxing in the spa.
