👍👍 The Bluest water I've seen in my life. It is kind of crowded, but when you travel solo, that means safety, so I didn't mind. People often mention beach, Aruba, hotels, Beach, water, crowded, playa, Palm, beaches, restaurants,

    Palm Beach almost always makes the list of the top beaches on the planet. Soft soft sand! Azure blue water! No rip tides! What's not to like? Sunning, swimming, banana boating. The perfect Caribbean triology. Plus many of the best casual restaurants are beach side. You can get out of the sun and have an affordable, local seaside meal. The paddle boarding and wind surfing schools are at the southern end of the island. Walk the shore south to the school to watch the professionals and the newbies master this craft. Aruba is the wind surfing capital of the world and it happens here. The international wind surfing championships actually take place right here on Palm Beach in June. Wonder over. A big tent provides shade and a computer screen makes the location of each contestant during the various challenges. At night a local band plays to celebrate the contestants. On some Sundays the Aruba fire department and shore patrols practice water safety drills in front of Moomba. They race to rescue dolls. It's really interesting to watch the professionals at work (when someone isn't really drowning!) Sundays are also the day the locals come to sun. It's fun to strike up a conversation and learn how they live the island life. Find out when the cruise ships come in. Their shore excursions head to the best beaches, so they always show up at Palm Beach. (The days are typically Tuesday and Wednesday.) Palm Beach gets really crowded then.

    (Translated by Google) Well tourist beach. Rental of chairs around $ 25. Very similar to Engle beach. It has everything close ... restaurant, hotels etc. It is the Copacabana of Aruba (Original) Praia bem turística. Aluguel de cadeiras em torno de 25 dólares. Bem parecida com Engle beach. Tem tudo bem perto...restaurante, hotéis etc. É a Copacabana de Aruba

    Beach is very big but there are a lot of hotels who put their sun beds. It is quite crowded and noisy. Water is not very shallow, it has some waves and flora. Parking is not very easy. I think the beach is mostly for the guests of those hotels.

    Nice sandy beach. The south end is much better. The north end is dominated by huge hotels and most of the sand is taken up by hotel lounge chairs but not many people - definitely an older crowd there.

    Having visited all the beaches of Aruba, I can say that Palm Beach is the best, especially if you are a guest of one of the hotels of this beach. All the activities you want to do are there, bars and restaurants are really good and varied options, and one important thing is that it is close to the market, so after watching the beautiful sunset, you can head straight to the market and see the beautiful place. Enjoying music everywhere, singers and people dancing and having fun. Most of the beaches I visited are filled with old people who just want to relax, so it's not very fun for young people who want to have a crazy time partying and wasting. If you don't like crowded places and crazy people who want to dance and have fun, this is not the place you want to visit. It's quiet in the morning in a few places but a bit far from bars and restaurants.

    Enjoyed this group at their airbnb. Cooked up a storm that included six breakfast, one bbq lunch and five dinners . The house was big and all amenities needed to enjoy a great vacation. Planned the weeks itinerary from jeep tour to massages, snorkeling adventure and did all their grocery shopping.

    (Translated by Google) The place is great, it has an a la carte restaurant on the first level and on the second there is a bar type place, the service is good and the price is reasonable. In either of the two you can appreciate the sunsets without any inconvenience. (Original) El lugar es genial, tiene un restaurante a la carta en el primer nivel y en el segundo hay un lugar tipo bar, el servicio es bueno y el precio es razonable. En cualquiera de los dos se puede apreciar los atardeceres sin ningún inconveniente.

    One of the best beaches in Aruba. Zero sea weed, powder white sand. Tons of food available. Special mention of Eduardos that has the BEST fruit bowls. The only Con is that this beach will probably be very busy since it shares itself with famous resorts. Lot of water sports activities are available here as well. Overall fab place to spend your day.

    A lot will argue, but this is the best location in Aruba. Plenty to do, drink, and eat. Great hotels and resorts to suit any taste and budget. Awesome nightlife with bars and restaurants on the street side, beach and piers. Check out Moomba for a terrific time!

    Wonderful beach: calm, safe, clean, warm and not too crowded.

  • 2/5 Meli M. 2 years ago on Google
    Very crowded, no space on the beach, many boats so a bit mucky water, too many hotels and restaurants right by the beach blocking the view.

    Beach has been made too narrow by all the chairs and vendors. Absolutely abhor all the jet skis. Better off at Eagle Beach. The worst section is by the Hyatt where literally there is no beach left thanks to the vendors. Don't bother going...

  • 5/5 Kelledstyle B. 5 years ago on Google
    Even if Palm Beach is the most crowded beach in Aruba, you have to go at least once to try by yourself. There are lot of fun activities to do around the beach so you will definitely enjoy your visit. Find more picture on my Instagram (IG: kelledstyle) ;-)

    (Translated by Google) The beach is really very nice. All the High Rise hotels are located there, so it is a little busier than the others. Highly recommended.

    (Translated by Google) The best beach in Aruba! Many hostels for eating, music, rental of chairs, beautiful view. The prices are expensive compared to others in the hotels area. I recommend Vela for the rental of chairs. Easy access with Arubus! No need to rent a car. (Original) La mejor playa de Aruba! Muchos paradores para comer, música, alquiler de reposeras, hermosa vista. Los precios son caros en comparación con otras por la zona de los hoteles. Recomiendo Vela para el alquiler de reposeras.

  • 4/5 Lina Maria B. 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) It is a spectacular beach, with white sand and clear blue water, cold and delicious. The beach is very large, several kilometers and surrounded by the best hotels on the island. In comparison to other beaches it is very crowded with people, chairs, boats, Sky jets and different water activities, some bars and restaurants. If you are looking for more tranquility, it is not the ideal beach, but if you want to go where everything is happening, it is the ideal place. On the street between the Marriott and the Ritz you can park if you go by car and then walk to the beach. (Original) Es una playa espectacular, de arena blanca y agua azul claro, fría y deliciosa. La playa es muy grande, son varios kilómetros y está rodeada de los mejores hoteles de la isla. En comparación a otras playas es muy llena de personas, sillas, lanchas, jets Sky y diferentes actividades acuáticas, algunos bares y restaurantes. Si estás buscando más tranquilidad no es la playa ideal, pero si quieres ir donde esta pasando todo es el lugar ideal. En la calle entre el Marriott y el Ritz puedes parquear si vas en auto y luego caminar a la playa.
