As the capital and largest city in Aruba, Oranjestad is a charming city full of natural beauty and some of the warmest people you will ever meet.
Speaking of warm, Aruba is known as the “happy island” in the Caribbean due to its weather and consistently receives the least rainfall in the Southern Caribbean.
Aside from its beaches and near-perfect weather, the adventures
For entry to Aruba’s backcountry, try a guided ATV adventure to ride through the island’s rocky terrain while visiting unspoiled territory.
A visit to Hooiberg should also be on your to-do-list. Hooiberg, which translates to Haystack, is a volcanic formation that offers scenic views of the island and sea.
Chances are, you’re planning a trip to Aruba for the beach. The closest beach during your stay in Oranjestad is Surfside Beach, which is popular among the locals.
If you’re looking for a beach that’s less crowded, try Druif Beach instead.
