Aruba is a Dutch Caribbean island in the Southern Caribbean Sea near Venezuela. Its white sandy beaches and crystal clear waters make it a dream destination for romantic vacations. Aruba is also known as the "Happy Island", in part because of its very favorable climate. In fact, this is a place where it hardly ever rains! Tourism in Aruba is highly developed, many cruise ships visit the island every year.
If you like to relax and spend time at the beach all day, Aruba is the place to be! Its long sandy beaches are truly exceptional. They are also perfect for those who like to walk along the beach. In addition, if you go a little further from your hotel, you may come across majestic flamingos.
The capital is safe and known for its friendly inhabitants. Oranjestad attracts tourists with its gourmet restaurants, casinos and famous designer stores. You will have the opportunity to take a picture of yourself with the popular "I love Aruba" sign.
Simply beautiful, Aruba’s Natural Pool is well worth the trip. In a unique rock formation, volcanic stone circles a small depression, creating a tranquil pool. The waves breaking on the rocks around the pool provide an impressive sight to watch. Don't forget your water shoes as well as your mask and snorkel.
Located at the northern end of the island, the lighthouse offers a breathtaking view. This is one of the most romantic places to watch the sunset in Aruba.
Visit The Butterfly Farm and get a chance to see butterfly species of every imaginable color and shape. Strolling through the beautiful gardens, you might have the chance to witness new butterflies emerging from their chrysalis and taking their first flight.
