Don’t waste your time changing dollars into Aruba currency.


I pulled some Aruban bucks out of the ATM in the airport for use in taxis, small purchases, etc. when I reached the hotel, the cabbie told me the price in $US. I told him I had Aruban Florens, and he had to break out a calculator to convert the fare...lol

I think most of the bars in the tourist areas take $US, but you can always use Visa.

They also use US Power (60hz, 120v), so no need to take voltage converters/adapters.

Other than drinking in bars, the only other thing to do is hang out on the beach...but there is a golf course on the NW corner of the island. You get to the tourist areas by heading west from the airport. That takes you into the “downtown” section of the island. Continue heading west and you’ll run into the majority of hotels. They are along the west coast of the island.
