Aruba beach quick help

[scumbers]

We are hoping for eagle Bach or palm beach but notice there are several resorts on each beach. Can we stop on any of those are they open to public for the beach facilities such as sun bed etc

 

Also can anyone recommend one to be better then others on palm or eagle beach

 

Cheers

Have you checked out the Ports of Call board? There's usually good advice there.

Beaches in Aruba and most other Caribbean islands are all public beaches even those in front of the beachfront hotels. The hotels may limit your use of their facilities and charge for the use of umbrellas and beach chairs, but there should always be access to the beach and the water.:)

The Raddison offers a day pass for about $30pp

You get a towel and use of the pool and sunbeds

Definitely check out the Aruba forum in Ports of Call, there are experts there. We did Eagle beach and did not care for it, you see lots of industrial things in the water and it smelled like a sewer. The public bus system is safe and easy to use, I'd go a bit further away from port the next time.
