Aruba

Aruba is an autonomous island in the Caribbean that belongs to the Netherlands. The island is manageable and measures just 30 kilometers. But in international tourism, the island is almost a giant. Those who choose this Caribbean destination have a sense of elegance and a touch of luxury. It is a distant domicile, a vacation wonderland with modern hotel complexes and resorts of the highest class. All this lends itself to relaxing under palm trees, and in the southwest of the island, locals and guests alike will find beaches that seem to stretch to the horizon. The sand there is white as a flower and fine-grained, and surfers from all over the world cavort off the coast. Even in the rainy season, the sky rarely opens its doors.
