It’s never too early to start planning your next spring break trip. If you’re looking for the perfect place for some tropical sun, crystal waters and amazing parties, consider Aruba, or, as it’s known, One Big Happy Island. Although it won’t be packed with college spring break parties like a lot of Mexican destinations, its relaxing island vibes are a great tradeoff.
The best spot to be is Palm Beach, where everything’s happening. This strip of white sand is home to a line-up of a dozen of the best hotels and resorts. In other words, a spring break playground.
Lining the beach at almost every pier are stands for water sports. Go jet skiing, water skiing, tubing, parasailing and so much more with help from these awesome vendors.
Grab a bite and drinks at each of the pier restaurants located on top of the water. For a relaxed lunch with spectacular views, check out Bugaloe. For drinks and a party-vibe during the day head to Piet’s Pier bar.
When it comes to nightlife, Aruba doesn’t disappoint. If you’re looking for a fun and unique experience, hop aboard the Kukoo Kanuku party bus and tour the local bars in Aruba with a raucous crowd. The loud and crazy party buses can be heard miles away.
There are also a number of bars and clubs conveniently located across from the hotel strip. Senor Frog’s is a classic on any vacation, and Gusto, right across from it, for more of a club feel. There are also a number of beach bars located along the strip.
The main attraction in Aruba is its casinos. The best can be found in the Riu Hotel, the Radisson, the Hyatt and more.
Don’t overlook Aruba as an amazing spring break destination for 2018.
