Aruba
For the summer of 2023, Aruba will join British Airways’ growing number of Caribbean destinations. The Dutch-Caribbean island, which is only a few miles off the South American coastline is a great destination for all year-round sunshine, being located outside the traditional ‘hurricane belt’.
What you’ll find when you get these are some truly outstanding beaches, which rival anywhere else in the Caribbean (and in some, and more popular cases, better), crystal clear blue sea, and a pleasant constant temperature.
The city of Oranjestad is a mix of Dutch architecture and Latin flair, with many influences visible from its past. There are historical sights and natural wonders like caves – together with an excellent access to marine life.
