We absolutely fell in love with Aruba when we visited! We wanted to see as much of the island as possible, so we stayed in a local Airbnb and rented a car to explore. We enjoyed the beautiful beaches, swam in the clear blue waters of the Caribbean, and soaked up the sun as much as we could. We drove to the centre of the island to see the National Park and some incredible rock formations, and it was so interesting to experience the flat terrain and desert climate. You can enjoy lush tropical landscapes and go hiking in the desert all in the same day on Aruba!
The island is a constituent country of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, giving it some of the most progressive LGBTQ+ laws in the Caribbean. We absolutely found it to be a very welcoming destination for lesbians and female same-sex couples. Aruba tourism excitedly welcomes LGBTQ+ travellers, and we felt completely safe during our trip. We can’t stop recommending it! Be sure to venture outside of the resorts and experience the whole island. You can go on so many adventures while you fall in love with Aruba.
