Nicknamed “One Happy Island,” the Caribbean island of Aruba represents more than 90 nationalities and boasts a number of attractions, including:
De Palm Island
Located a quick 10-minute boat ride from the capital city of Oranjestad, this family-friendly island has water slides, games, snorkeling, and banana boat rides.
San Nicolas
Aruba’s second largest city is home to a vibrant art scene, with numerous large murals, plus galleries and boutiques that sell prints and handcrafted jewelry.
Donkey Sanctuary
Created in 1997, the sanctuary houses more than 130 donkeys and makes a scenic day trip and photo opportunity.
California Lighthouse
Visit this landmark at the north end of the island and climb the narrow stairs to the observation deck for a stunning sunset view.
