Activities

Kiteboarding

Kitesurfing is one of the fastest growing water sports in the world. We offer several kitesurf lesson packages to choose from for all kitesurfing levels, along with surfing and bodyboarding lessons.
Aruba is the perfect place for kitesurfing; the trade winds, shallow blue waters and soft sand beaches make the learning process easy and enjoyable. Aruba Kitesurfing is a member of the National Surf Association in Aruba (Arusurf) and offers a variety of classes, from beginner to expert level lessons.

Classes are taught by local pros who are IKO and ISA certified and insured to guarantee safety and quality. Aruba Kitesurfing School has been teaching since 2002 with hundreds of students a year. We use the latest Naish Sigma kites with Naish and Nobile boards so the equipment is always fresh and safe. Located between the Fisherman’s Huts and the Aruba Marriott Resort, we are easily accessible on Hadicurari Beach. Just look for the Naish flags.

Sailing

Set sail for a glorious cruise along Aruba’s scenic coastline.

All along the leeward coast of Aruba, the calm, flat sea and the steady trade winds make sailing an ideal activity to add to your vacation experiences.

One of the most breathtaking perspectives of our island is the view of our stunning beaches from the sea as you sail along our coastline. Palm Beach harbors over a dozen catamarans and sailboats offering cruises that showcase gorgeous scenery set against the turquoise canvas of the Caribbean Sea.

Fishing

Catch your ‘beauty of the ocean’ and hop aboard on one of the many deep sea fishing charters in Aruba that hunt for game fish.

Aruba is a haven for deep sea fishing, with about 18 sport fishing charter companies offering adrenaline-rushing half-day and full-day excursions on sports yachts.

The island allows for the best fishing in the Caribbean. Why? As the waters are rich in trophy-sized species. Join local fishing crews in Aruba on their boat five to seven miles offshore for game fish such as mahi-mahi, bonito, dorado, amberjack, black and yellowfin tuna, barracuda, sailfish, kingfish, blue marlin, and shark. Catch your own and make sure to strike a pose back in the harbor with your unique catch.
