Step onto the white sand of the renowned two-mile-long Palm Beach strip, home to Aruba's glamorous high-rise hotels. Palm Beach is dotted by palm trees, hotels, casinos, water sports concessions, piers, beach bars, restaurants and shops. Calm waters make this beach a comfortable haven for swimmers and snorkelers. A walk along the coast at dawn or sunset is perfect for exercise and quiet reflection during your Caribbean vacation. Taking in the magnificent tangerine sunset or enjoying candle-lit, barefoot dining on the beach in Aruba can be the perfect finale to a lazy or exciting day of sun and sea. After sunset the Palm Beach area just off the beach comes to life as buzzing clubs and casinos in Aruba offer an upbeat nightlife. Two of the largest shopping malls in Aruba cater to the needs of those on a shopping spree and also offer cinema theaters, water fountain shows bowling and Spa facilities.

Plaza Padu is a brand new public plaza in the center of the historic Orangestad in Aruba and makes for an exceptional setting to host an outdoor evening event for up to 500 people. The plaza is set among restored colonial buildings, and it has a beautiful water fountain which is illuminated with colored lights at night. This Plaza Padu is dedicated to Juan Chabaya 'Padu' Lampe, one of the authors of Aruba’s National Hymn “Aruba Dushi Tera”, which means Aruba Sweet Land. Our pictures show a bronze sculpture installed in Plaza Padu in March 2017. The sculptural group by local artist Ciro Abath pays tribute to Juan Chabaya Lampe, Rufo Wever and Hubert Boi for their contribution to the composition of the national anthem.

Apotek offers a perfect example of “craft” in action. You won’t find any pre-made mixers here. Not only do they fresh squeeze their juices and create delicious homemade syrups, but they also create bespoke drinks. All you need to do is tell the bartender what spirit you want and the flavor profile you’re into, and they will create a drink, just for you. And, as I experienced, they don’t hold back to make your dream cocktail a reality. Nothing simple here. Although, if you asked, I’m sure they would be happy to wow you with a three-ingredient cocktail.
