Adventures in Aruba

 
Picture
​They don’t call Aruba “One Happy Island” for no reason. There are so many great things to do on such a small island, you are definitely going to have a great time. 
Most resorts are located along beautiful Palm Beach. The water here is beautiful with all different shades of blue! The water is clear and calm, making it a great family beach!

Aruba is known for its aloe. At the Aruba Aloe Factory, you can take a free tour, learn so much about the aloe plant, and purchase some of their amazing products. Their aloe is a staple in our home and we love all of the other bath and body products that they offer. 

Baby Beach is probably my family’s favorite activity on the island.  This beach is located on the southern side of the island, and is a half-moon shaped, calm lagoon that is great for families and some snorkeling. You won’t see a ton of fish variety, but there is some coral life, including turtles, that are always swimming around. There are food vendors and some shade palapas around the beach so you can make it a full day excursion. Although, we usually hit up Kamini’s Kitchen for lunch (her blue lipped mussels and curried goat is amazing!) just a few miles away as you’re headed back up the island.

There are several companies that offer ATV tours around the back side of the island. Dramatic landscapes, unique rock formations, caves, and an abandoned gold mine are some of the many treasures you will find on the windward side of the island.

Catamarans, Offshore Fishing Charters, Shipwreck Diving, Sunset Sails, Jolly Roger Pirate Ships and so many more offshore activities are waiting for you off the shores of Aruba. 

Food. Do I need to say more? The food on the island is delicious! The fresh fish and their cuisine with a mix of Dutch and Caribbean influences is not to be missed. As mentioned above, we love Kamini’s near Baby Beach, Linda’s Dutch Pancakes as well as Wacky Wahoo’s near Palm Beach, Taste My Aruba in Downtown Aruba,  Bugaloe Beach Bar over the water on Eagle Beach and catching dinner at the California Lighthouse while watching the sunset. This is just the tip of the iceberg of restaurants that we love to visit while on Aruba. 

Lindsay Obernuefemann, Global Travel AdvisorLindsay developed a passion for traveling while spending two years living in Paris with her husband and infant son. While living in France, she traveled over much of Europe and developed her love of history and sightseeing. A self-declared foodie, Lindsay loves finding local foodie gems and immersing herself in the cultures she is visiting. Lindsay has also lived in Newfoundland and currently resides in Houston, TX with her husband, two boys and amazing dog Millie. Always looking for an adventure, Lindsay and her family have visited much of the Caribbean, Mexico and the Hawaiian Islands. One of Lindsay’s favorite family vacations is visiting Orlando to enjoy Disneyworld and Universal Studios. Few things make her as happy as sporting mouse ears down Main Street or casting spells in Diagon Alley.Write something about yourself. No need to be fancy, just an overview.
