Palm Beach & Eagle Beach
Eagle Beach is the jewel of Aruba's coast and regularly ranked among the best beaches in the world: a broad ribbon of powder-white sand and calm, warm turquoise water, famous for the two wind-bent fofoti trees that lean over the sand and have become the island's emblem. They are the most photographed trees in the Caribbean, and standing beneath them with the sea glowing behind is one of those moments that fixes a whole trip in your memory.
Aruba sits below the hurricane belt and enjoys near-constant sunshine and cooling trade winds, so the weather here is reliably glorious year-round. The low-rise stretch of Eagle Beach is wider and calmer than the high-rise resort strip at neighboring Palm Beach, which buzzes with watersports, beach bars and nightlife. That contrast is the gift of this coast: a quiet, spacious place to spread out a towel just a few minutes from all the action whenever you want it.
Whether you want to do nothing at all under a palapa or snorkel, sail and paddle the gentle Caribbean, this is the heart of "One Happy Island." We build your days around the rhythm you like, from slow mornings on the sand to a sunset sail off the leeward coast, and we know the quieter corners and the best stretches of beach to make the most of it.
