Aruba (Oranjestad) Cruise Port Guide: Tips and Overview
Affectionately known as “One Happy Island,” Aruba is located about 18 miles north of Venezuela. This Dutch Caribbean island is known for its powdery, white sand beaches and tropical climate.
In this video, we explore the capital city of Oranjestad to show what is easily accessible within walking distance of the cruise terminal. Locations visited include the bus terminal, Royal Plaza Mall, Renaissance Mall, I ❤️ Aruba sign, Queen Wilhelmina Park, Fort Zoutman, City Hall, Holland Aruba Mall, and more!

Aruba Airbnb Review - By Palm Beach
Bon Bini! (Welcome!) Here is our Airbnb we stayed in during our visit to -
It's located in the Noord area in Aruba, which is the Palm Beach or High Rise hotel district. It was located a few blocks behind the Marriott. Probably walking distance to the beach, but it's definitely better to have a car.
The Airbnb is a one bed/one bath apartment located next to the owner's house. As you will see in the video it has nice beach style decor and a cute patio area with hammock, definitely a nice place to unwind after a day of exploring.
If you have any questions about the apartment, just hit us up in the comments. We are happy to help!
Cheers!
Ryan

A Salty Passion: Hi! We are Ryan (RumShopRyan) and Crystal (Castaway Crystal), we document, photograph, and film the best the Caribbean has to offer. Whether it’s stunning beaches, relaxing hotels, friendly restaurants, or soggy beach bars…we want to share it and inspire others to explore the islands.

Who Is RumShopRyan:
Howdy! I’m Ryan and I hail from the land-locked, can’t get any further from the ocean, state of Kansas. I moved to laid back southwest Florida in 2001. I didn’t know a single person and didn’t have a job. Risky I know, but the ocean was calling and I had to answer.
I’m a huge fan of Kansas City sports, so you’ll probably see a lot of Jayhawks, Chiefs and Royals attire in my photos. Kansas City is a great town and I’m glad I’m from there, but the coastal life was calling. It’s kind of like Kenny Chesney’s “island boy” song. Check out the lyrics and you’ll see what I mean.
I write because I’m passionate about the Caribbean and the island lifestyle, and it’s my way to share it with you. If it has anything to do with the Caribbean, rum drinks, beach style music, or Caribbean culture, you’ll be able to find it on this site.
When in the Caribbean you’ll find a camera around my neck and note pad in my pocket. This is how I document the experiences in unique and interesting ways and bring it back to you, the Castaways.
Who is Castaway Crystal:
I was raised in Southwest Florida so it’s no surprise that I have a love for beaches, water and nature. As a child, most weekends were spent fishing in the warm gulf waters on the family boat. As an adult, most weekends are spent soaking up the sun on Ft. Myers Beach. Even though I have always loved the coastal life, I don’t think I fully appreciated it until I moved to Nashville, TN. I’m all about experiencing new things, and as a Licensed Massage Therapist I thought it would be amazing to massage some of Nashville’s biggest stars (a girl can dream right?). But I missed the sun and sand too much—and let’s not forget the rum runners! After a year I couldn’t take it anymore, this sun bunny moved back to her coast of somewhere beautiful.
I’ve always been passionate about photography and writing but my passions never really had a purpose until I met Ryan. I couldn’t be happier being Ryan’s first mate and sharing my photos and stories with you. May they inspire you to go after your tropical dreams and wishes. Make a plan…Set a date…Just go!

Oranjestad and Aruba tour
Aruba is a tiny Dutch Caribbean island. It is a constituent country of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in the southern Caribbean Sea, located about 1,600 kilometres west of the main part of the Lesser Antilles and 29 kilometres north of the coast of Venezuela. It measures 32 kilometres long from its northwestern to its southeastern end and 10 kilometres across at its widest point. Together with Bonaire and Curaçao, Aruba forms a group referred to as the ABC islands. Collectively, Aruba and the other Dutch islands in the Caribbean are often called the Dutch Caribbean.
Aruba is one of the four countries that form the Kingdom of the Netherlands, along with the Netherlands, Curaçao and Sint Maarten. The citizens of these countries all share a single nationality: Dutch. Aruba has no administrative subdivisions, but, for census purposes, is divided into eight regions. Its capital is Oranjestad.
Unlike much of the Caribbean region, Aruba has a dry climate and an arid, cactus-strewn landscape. This climate has helped tourism as visitors to the island can reliably expect warm, sunny weather. It has a land area of 179 km2. It lies outside Hurricane Alley.
Constant trade winds bring cool breezes and cause the divi-divi trees to slope southwesterly. European influence shows in architecture that features Dutch gables painted in tropical pastels. It’s also evident in language, with English, Dutch and Spanish spoken alongside the local tongue, Papiamento.

Aruba is a 21 mile-long island of the Lesser Antilles in the southern Caribbean Sea, 17 miles north of the Paraguaná Peninsula, Venezuela. Together with Bonaire and Curaçao it forms a group referred to as the ABC islands of the Leeward Antilles, the southern island chain of the Lesser Antilles. Aruba has a population around 105,000 and a land area of 75 square miles. Oranjestad, with a population of 32,748 is the capital and most important city of Aruba located on the southern coast near the western end of the island.
This video begins as we sail into the harbour on the Crown Princess. After disembarking the ship I take a submarine cruise and visit the hotel area at Palm Beach. I visit the northern most point on the island at the California Lighthouse. I get a nice view of the island from the rock formation Casibari. I also witness the pounding surf on the east coast of the island. The video concludes as I walk around Oranjestad, the capital and largest city on the island.

Aruba the best of vacation 4K
english/ deutsch:
#aruba is not only a great cruise destination, but also suitable for a relaxing holiday. We tested it this year and put together a few impressions. The RIU Palace Aruba on Palm Beach was our host and we miss our beach days and daily snorkeling right off the beach. Varied was our island tour by jeep, the trips to Oranjestad and the tour to the island the Palm. I can say it was one of our best holidays on one of the islands under the wind ...
Aruba ist nicht nur ein tolles Kreuzfahrtziel, sondern auch geeignet für einen Erholungsurlaub. Wir haben es dieses jahr getestet und hier ein paar Impressionen zusammengestellt. Das RIU Palace Aruba am Palm Beach war unser Gastgeber und unsere Strandtage und tägliche Schnorchelgänge direkt vom Strand weg werden wir vermissen. Abwechslungsreich war unsere Inseltour mit dem Jeep, die Ausflüge nach Oranjestad und die Tour zur Insel the Palm. Ich kann es vorweg nehmen, es war einer unserer schönsten Urlaube auf einer der Inseln unter dem Wind...
