Aruba Vacations & All Inclusive Deals
When choosing Aruba Vacations the option of staying at one of the All Inclusive Resorts should be considered. With an All inclusive Plan, you can literally leave home without your credit cards since all your meals, drinks, taxes and tips would have been pre-paid and are included. With that comes a certain amount of freedom from worrying about spending any more money, adding to your credit card bills and having to come home and face that dreaded credit statement from your Aruba Vacation. Aruba is famous for having a wide range of cuisine from all over the world since many early seafaring Europeans chose to remain in there. This gave rise to dishes with touches of Dutch, Spanish, Chinese, French, South American and other flavors. On my many visits to Aruba I sampled many fine international dishes at world class restaurants. When dining out in Aruba you will find prices to be reasonable and the food fresh since a lot of the produce, fish and meats are brought in by boats from South America, a mere 14 miles away on a daily basis. The Aruba language, Papiamento, is also spattered with hints of many languages. So, therefore one should also considered a stay at an European Plan where you are free to eat at Aruban Restaurants on your own and sample local Aruban Cuisine. One of my favorites is Keshi Yena, a Dutch cheese hollowed out and filled with shredded chicken in a flavory tomato based Spanish sauce, Yummnn!

These whitecaps are caused by the trade winds.The trade winds in Aruba are famous, they blow from East to West and they blow almost everyday of the year. It is because of the trade winds that you will find most of the vegetation has a lean to the west look. As a matter of fact, Aruba has what the locals call Divi Divi trees which is actually a small tree or large thornless shrub that grow all over Aruba. Your hair will also tend to have a Divi Divi look too unless you wear a hat or scarf such are the winds in Aruba. The good part is that it is because of these trade winds that Aruba’s summer heat is dissipated and the nights are kept cool, almost…Rain in Aruba is so rare that sometimes the schools close over what most of us would call a good summer squall. The Aruban topography is desert like with large cactus growing along side beautiful coconut trees. The Aruba beaches are truly beautiful with powder fine white sand and turquoise blue seas. On the north coast, the seas are rough and although not good for swimming,it is a must see with lots of tourists coming over for the day. It is a truly spectacular landscape not found anywhere else in the Caribbean and well worth the visit.
