Set sail for a glorious cruise along Aruba’s scenic coastline.
All along the leeward coast of Aruba, the calm, flat sea and the steady trade winds make sailing an ideal activity to add to your vacation experiences.
One of the most breathtaking perspectives of our island is the view of our stunning beaches from the sea as you sail along our coastline. Palm Beach harbors over a dozen catamarans and sailboats offering cruises that showcase gorgeous scenery set against the turquoise canvas of the Caribbean Sea.
One of the main reasons why people visit Aruba are the beaches. For obvious reasons. This is my guide to six of Aruba’s smashing beaches:
Glide across our tranquil waters on a paddleboard or catch a wave at one of our surf breaks.
Have a unique vacation experience by joining an underwater tour in Aruba by semi-submarine, real submarine, or sea trek.
Aruba has in its proximity two private islands: Renaissance Island and De Palm Island.
Join the fun of parasailing on Palm Beach and experience a feeling of exhilaration just as the parachute fills with air.
Amp up your Caribbean vacation with exhilarating motorized water sports on the gorgeous coastline of Aruba.
Catch your 'beauty of the ocean' and hop aboard on one of the many deep sea fishing charters in Aruba that hunt for game fish.
Marvel at a diminutive damselfish as it guards its home by waving sea fans, or encounter the schools of blue parrotfish.
The turquoise water of Aruba’s southern Caribbean sea embraces our happy island like a hug.
Aruba's constant trade winds, extensive shallows, and challenging wave conditions make Aruba a surfer’s paradise.
One of the most breathtaking perspectives of our island is the view of our stunning beaches from the sea as you sail along our coastline. Aruba’s Palm Beach harbors over a dozen catamarans and sailboats offering cruises that showcase gorgeous scenery set against the turquoise canvas of the Caribbean Sea. You can take advantage of several unique sailing excursions, including snorkel cruises, sunset sails, booze cruises, and dinner cruises. Most of these excursions feature an open bar (try our Aruba Ariba cocktail!) as well as lunch, snacks, or dinner depending on the time and duration of the cruise.
One of the most unique Caribbean sailing adventures is the sunset cruise Aruba is so fond of. Now don’t get us wrong, sailing in Aruba is an amazing experience at any time of day, but being on a Caribbean sailing cruise as the sun sets and the sky turns pink, purple and orange is absolutely breathtaking. You’ll have the best seat in the house for this amazing sunset show Mother Nature offers every evening. You haven’t experienced sailing until you’ve tried Aruba sailing.
If you are looking to test out your own sailing skills, Hobie Cats are available for rent, and some watersports operators offer lessons.
The yearly Aruba International Regatta features competitors sailing in from neighboring islands to compete in categories ranging from yachts to Sunfish. As a spectator, it’s great fun to get caught up in the excitement and the fabulous beach parties surrounding the three-day event.
We’re just getting started with the amazing effects Aruba has to offer. Dig into your trip details below to unlock a Caribbean experience that will fill you with sunshine and send you home with a happy afterglow that never fades.
