The best Carnival dates are January and February, with parades in Oranjestad and San Nicolas.
Before you go
Check the weather forecast and sea conditions a few days before your trip.
Which area of Aruba is best to stay in?
It depends on your trip: Palm Beach if you want restaurants, nightlife and services nearby; Eagle Beach if you're looking for peace and quiet; San Nicolas if you want to experience local culture.
Palm Beach
Lively, with bars, water sports and nightlife. A good fit if it's your first time, you want services near your hotel or you'd rather not rent a car.
Eagle Beach
Wide, quiet and famous for its sunsets. A good fit if you're traveling as a couple or want to rest.
Oranjestad
Aruba's capital, a unique mix of old and new. A good fit if you want to walk around the historic downtown.
San Nicolas and Savaneta
In the south, with iconic beaches and island charm, away from the bustle of the Palm Beach hotel area. San Nicolas is Aruba's cultural capital. A good fit if you want a local atmosphere; a car makes it easier to get around there.

When driving
In Aruba, people drive on the right. An international license or a valid license is accepted; the minimum age and deposit vary by agency.
Arikok National Park
A regular car won't get you to the Natural Pool: you need a 4x4 vehicle or a 4x4 tour.
