mufflogan Posted December 1, 2015 #1 Share Posted December 1, 2015 I have a 9, 12, and 14 year old who love jumping around in waves. We don't really want calm waters. Does anyone know the best beach in Aruba for our scenario? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted December 1, 2015 #2 Share Posted December 1, 2015 On beaches with waves, you're also going to have undertow...and it can be unsafe if the undertow is bad...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatteras51 Posted December 1, 2015 #3 Share Posted December 1, 2015 Eagle Beach is your best bet for waves. Some days the waves are fairly big and some days they are very small. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted December 1, 2015 #4 Share Posted December 1, 2015 I agree about Eagle Beach. Be careful wherever you go. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rala Posted December 1, 2015 #5 Share Posted December 1, 2015 Waves do not always mean you will have undertow. It depends on the winds, size of waves, slope of the beach, direction beach faces, whether the beach is on the open ocean or a bay or a sound. I have spent most of my life on or near beaches(and I love them), so I know something of what I speak. That said, as another poster advised you should always be cautious, but you do not always have to be overly concerned with undertow just because there are waves. Hope you and your kids have a great time !:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hatteras51 Posted December 2, 2015 #7 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Andicuri has large waves, but it is not recommended for swimming or playing around in the water, due to the strong currents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arubalisa Posted December 2, 2015 #8 Share Posted December 2, 2015 Andicuri is on the windward coast. Swimming on the windward coast is NOT advised. Large waves and treacherous currents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
