2020 was and is a crazy year that has kept us all in suspense. A little break to rest on Aruba's powdery sands and under the Caribbean sun sounds like a dream to most. But sometimes dreams come true! What about Aruba in 2021? The Caribbean island awaits with a lot of beauty. Here are some reasons why Aruba should be on your bucket list for 2021.
The beautiful dream beaches
Sounds tempting, right? Beach lovers can spend every day of their vacation on a different dream beach. The positive side effect? With so many beaches, social distancing is not an issue. The white sandy beaches, some of which are miles long, are scattered all over the island and invite you to laze around, snorkel, dive or embark on daring adventures such as windsurfing. Instead of island hopping, beach hopping is the order of the day. Because in addition to the world-famous Eagle and Palm Beach, real insiders are also waiting to be discovered. For example, what about Mangel Halto? The bay in the north of the island is especially popular with the locals and surprises with dense mangroves.
Active on land and water
Whether on land, in the water or in the air, One Happy Island offers at least as many opportunities to be active as there are beaches. Adventurous is the jeep through the Arikok National Park, which covers about 25% of the surface of the island. Those who want to take a more sporty approach can explore the park on foot or on horseback. A colorful world of fish, corals and other marine life beckons underwater. And if you want to experience something special, you can enjoy the sunset during a sailing trip or float elegantly on the waves with SUP yoga.
356 days of sunshine
You read that right, the sun shines every day in Aruba. The Arubans are so sure of that that some hotels even advertise the promise of sunshine. Add to this an annual temperature of an average of 28 degrees and your holiday paradise is ready. No wonder Arubans are among the happiest people in the world.
Delicious food from all over the world
Enjoying food from all over the world is no problem in Aruba. The history of the island makes it possible, because people from more than 90 countries live here. A real culinary melting pot! Europeans and South Americans in particular have a major influence. Here Dutch pancakes meet paella and freshly caught fish, Peruvian ceviche and delicious spaghetti. But the current food trends such as bowls and smoothies can also be found there and are very popular on the island.
Accommodation for everyone
Anyone who thinks that a Caribbean vacation should always be expensive is wrong. Aruba convinces with a moderate price level comparable to the US. Many accommodations also currently offer special offers. And with the multitude of different accommodations, ranging from hotels to holiday homes and villas to bed &breakfasts, everyone will find their personal temporary home on the happy island.
