Top destination - Why go there in Palm Beach, Aruba ?
Aruba, one happy island

One happy island, the motto of Aruba, is very true and well chosen. Mostly known for its beach with flamingoes, which is actually a private hotel beach that cannot be access by non hotel guests, Aruba is a first choice destination for weddings and stag parties, mostly by americans. It has plenty of beautiful beaches, clear blue water all around, great hotels and other accomodations, but what makes it special is the friendliness of the inhabitants, which are offering plenty of activities for all taste, of course mostly related to water fun in the Carribean sea.
