MAIN Travel Caribbean Aruba

Located at the heart of the southern Caribbean, Aruba lies 15 miles north of Venezuela. With U.S. dollar freely accepted everywhere, it is equally popular with tourists from America from which it can be easily reached in under 3 hours via major hubs in Southern Florida.

For an island only 19 miles long and six miles across, Aruba packs a punch for a half million visitors a year with its spectacular array of attractions beginning with its exotic flora & fauna, almost constant 82 °F (28 °C) temperature, vibrant music and entertainment, exciting night life, discos and casinos.

By day, activities abound for scuba enthusiasts at 42 top diving sites, plus almost endless opportunities for world-class parasailing and deep-sea fishing.

Of course, the island is ringed by some of the most beautiful beaches in the world to merely laze the day away.

While many visitors are just as happy to settle into the many resorts & beaches located around the capital city of Oranjestad, no visit to Aruba would be complete without a trip to the countryside to take in the stunning natural beauty of Arikok National Park.
