Palm Beach in Aruba<\/p><\/div>

The best spot for people-watching in Aruba, Palm Beach has something for everyone: lounge chairs and umbrellas, beach bars and restaurants, room to roam, and a handful of sporting opportunities. Home to the high-rise hotels (such as the Aruba Marriott Resort & Stellaris Casino<\/a> and Hyatt Regency Aruba Resort & Casino<\/a>), it’s got ample space to feel like you have a little corner of beach to yourself.<\/p>

Grab a lounge chair under a thatched-roof palapa, or float in the warm water and take advantage of the time to chill out under the Aruban sun. If you can’t dial down the energy that easily, take a long stroll and stop by a beach bar to get a thirst-quenching drink and a view of the local iguanas.<\/p>

Find your own spot on the beach<\/p><\/div>

Sport enthusiasts have plenty of choices. Play beach tennis<\/a> at the Moomba Beach Bar<\/a>, right next to the Marriott. On the other side of the same hotel, you can take a class at the nearby Dare2Fly<\/a> kiteboarding center. For three lessons (kite mastery, “body dragging” and board lesson), the cost is $375. The Aruba Marriott also offers a special “Surf in to Luxury<\/a>” package that includes accommodations at the Tradewinds Club and a free windsurfing or intro kiteboarding class.<\/p>

The best thing about Palm Beach is the soft, talcum-powder sand. Dig your toes in while you sip from your umbrella drink, and pick the perfect time to dunk yourself in the calm, turquoise water. Ultimately, it doesn’t matter whether you’re snorkeling, swimming, sailing or floating. You’re in Aruba, and that’s all that counts.<\/p>

I was in Aruba as a guest of the Aruba Marriott Resort & Stellaris Casino, but the opinions in this post are my own.<\/em><\/p>
