What to do and see in Palm - Eagle Beach, Aruba: The Best Nature & Parks

December 21, 2021 Jasper Kershner

Inhabited since the year 1000, Aruba is an island rich in history and culture. Eagle Beach is an idyllic Caribbean beach, with white sands and turquoise waters, and is frequented by water sports enthusiasts. Palm Beach, on the island's west side, offers perfect swimming conditions and powdery sand. Those more concerned with conditions under the waves won't want to miss the wreck of the torpedoed tanker Pedernales, a popular diving site. Aruba is only 20 miles long, thus easily explored by bike or moped.

Malmok Beach

Known for ideal snorkeling and scuba diving, the water at this beach is so clear that even snorkelers can make out the 400-foot SS Antilla shipwreck from the surface.

We stayed at a vrbo right across the street. Had no idea how lucky we were til we arrived. Could walk across the street and snorkel, fish or swim. And watch a beautiful sunset every night!

Malmok Reef

A great dive, not just because of the Debbie II wreck but because of ample brain coral and schools of barracuda patrolling the area.

Manchebo Beach

An impressive strand of white powder, this quiet spot on the southwestern tip of Aruba is ideal for a leisure day at the beach.

This is the 3rd time we have been to this resort in the low rise area. If you are looking for peace and quiet, views to die for and excellent food, this is your place. Above all that, the staff is wonderful. They never disappoint, service second to none. I will return on our next trip to Aruba. Thank you to the Manchebo staff from Tim and (shellfish) Dawn!

A submerged 120-foot barge on Malmok reef offers excellent diving experiences.

Reviewed By ericbG9639CA

Excellent dive - Reef and wreck are close together and easily accessible on one dive. Spotted eagle ray, turtles, moray eels, and lots of reef fish. The wreck is relatively recent and is attracting a great deal of sea life as it begins to mature. It is also easy for penetration diving.

Eagle Beach

This popular resort beach features the white sand and turquoise waters of an ideal Caribbean beach.

Reviewed By bellerin30 - Schaan, Liechtenstein

We have not found a more perfect beach anywhere in the world. Eagle beach is my happy place. The water is calm and clear and the beach itself is never crowded. There is a tiki bar right on the sand (near Amsterdam Manor) as well and activities (jet skis, parasailing, banana boat rides) for the kids. This what a family holiday should be!

My daughter and I took a morning walk from Eagle Beach to Palm Beach on our nine day stay in Aruba. Palm Beach is amazing and we loved viewing the beautiful beach and checking out all the fancy high rise hotels. I highly recommend visiting Palm Beach!

Birdwatchers will enjoy Bubali Pond, a sanctuary for pelicans, black cormorants, sandpipers and wood storks as they fish, bathe and play in this scenic waterscape.

Spend an early morning around the wetlands and you'll be baffled at the number of beautiful birds that show up. : from Glossy ibises, roseate spoonbills, purple gallinule, black skimmers, coots,... Awesome place.
