INSIDER TIPS

Unlike most tropical destinations, it's safe to drink the tapwater as Aruba gets nearly all of it's water from desalination. Remember to bring a reusable water bottle to be green!

The official currency is the Florin but nearly all vendors accept US Dollars as payment and will give you the choice of which currency you want to pay in
