Aruba | 17 Relaxation may be the prevalent theme at most Caribbean islands, but in Aruba, the focus of every day is to find the joy in each moment. Even the sun shines with a smile on "One Happy Island," where light trade winds make 82 degrees the temperature of perfection. For perfection it is, for every travel style, from family—and sea turtle!—favorite Eagle Beach to glamorous Palm Beach. Deserts populated by cacti, curious iguanas, and ancient boulders call to the explorer within, and the craggy limestone cliffs, towering sand dunes, and crashing breakers to the north inspire awe and a sense of freedom. In the capital city of Oranjestad, refined Dutch colonial architecture steals the spotlight just minutes from the island's fofoti trees and inquisitive marine life. Located in the heart of the Southern Caribbean, its world-famous festivals, international cuisine, and shopping are just hours from most American airports, making "carefree" only a short flight away.
