The picturesque beaches of Aruba are something straight out of a movie. The soft white sand contrasted with the turquoise waters of the Caribbean and the green leaves of fofoti trees can only be described as paradise. At Blue Aruba Rentals, we invite you to experience this paradise for yourself and plan your beach getaway on our idyllic Caribbean Island, commonly referred to as the world’s happiest island. With Blue Aruba, you can stay across the street from Aruba’s most beautiful beach, where you can spend your time sunbathing, snorkeling, and sipping tropical drinks. Read on to learn more about our favorite Aruba beaches on the island. 

Eagle Beach

Stay in one of our Blue Residences, Azure Beach Residences, or Oceania Residences for the easiest access to Eagle Beach. This is the widest beach in Aruba, offering soft white sands with several convenient amenities. Pick a spot under one of the beach huts or stop at Frank’s Place Watersports to rent a jet ski for extra fun on the water! 

Palm Beach

Palm Beach is the most popular spot among the Aruba beaches, but it’s still worth checking out if you don’t mind a few extra people. The calm water makes this one of the best spots for watersports like paddle boarding, snorkeling, parasailing, and water skiing. This bustling beach is also surrounded by bars, restaurants, and souvenir shops if you want to spend some time exploring the island.

Arashi Beach

If you are interested in finding the best snorkeling in Aruba for families, head to Arashi Beach. The calm shallow waters are ideal for kids with plenty of Caribbean marine life to discover beneath the surface. You can expect to see blue tangs, filefish, angelfish, eels, parrotfish, and butterfly fish during your snorkel. 

Mangel Halto

Are you looking for a quiet beach away from the crowds? Mangel Halto offers a calm respite for beach bums and adventurers alike. Those who want to relax will discover the perfect sunbathing spot and a quiet place to watch the sunset. Adventurers will have plenty of opportunities to explore the water with paddleboarding, kayaking, and diving.

Baby Beach

Baby Beach is located on the southern end of the island, a bit further away from our Aruba condo rentals. This is an excellent beach for families with shallow and calm waters perfect for kids. You can also expect amenities like refreshment stands, beach huts, and watersport rentals. This beach also provides the perfect gateway to the cultural capital of Aruba, San Nicolas where your family can stop and admire the beautiful murals.

Renaissance Island

Even though this beach is technically not on Aruba, we had to mention the most famous beach in the area. Renaissance Aruba Resort owns the Renaissance Island beach, but you can purchase a day pass and get there from the marina. Why is this beach so famous? Flamingos roam the sugary white sands, offering a unique opportunity to see these colorful birds up close and personal!
