#### Take shade under the palapa huts of this small yet uncrowded strip of sand, where there are snorkeling opportunities suitable for all skill levels.

Compared to the busier, more upbeat stretches of sand further south, such as Palm Beach, Arashi Beach is calm and uncrowded. Join the many locals from the surrounding residential area as well as other travelers on this attractive stretch of soft pale sand.

Arrive at the beach early and stake out a good spot on the sands. The beach is dotted with thatched palapa huts that provide shade. Understandably, the shaded spots tend to fill up early, especially on busier days when cruise ships are in port. Although the beach is mostly sandy, several clusters of rocks can be seen near the shoreline.

Take a swim in the clear waters. The gentle current makes them suitable for less confident swimmers. Snorkeling is another favorite activity here. Look out to sea and spot boats full of snorkelers trawling the nearby waters.

Find snorkeling areas at both ends of the beach. Dive in to see shallow coral reefs around which colorful schools of fish can be seen swimming around in unison. Beginner snorkelers should stick with the sites on the southern end of the beach, near Catalina Cove as those at the northern end can be subject to strong currents.

If you plan on spending the whole day here, consider bringing along a picnic to eat on the sands. Make use of Arashi’s beach facilities. If the blaring sun has you feeling hot, cool down with a refreshing iced drink from the beach shack. The beach shack also has restrooms that patrons can use.

Find Arashi Beach at the northern end of Aruba’s resort area on the west coast, not far from the California Lighthouse. Drive here from Oranjestad in just 30 minutes. Parking is available at the beach. Alternatively, take the bus until the last stop on Malmok. From there, it’s a 10-minute walk to the beach. Charis and umbrellas are available to rent. While here, be sure to see the nearby California Lighthouse, a historic landmark that has stood here for more than 100 years.

This was our favorite beach. There’s a snack bar and washroom on site. It’s a great spot to spend the day or just come and snorkel. There’s umbrellas and lounge chairs to rent for $30.
