What to take to Aruba

The Aruba dress code for tourists is: everything goes! Super short-shorts, midriffs out, and very low-cut tops are all fine. Dressed up to the nines, all fine! Hoodies and trackies, all fine!

If you’re wondering what to pack for Aruba, the answer in short is, whatever you like.

Absolute essentials for Aruba

1. – Your passport. And check your passport is valid for at least six months before your arrival date in Aruba.

2. – A valid visa. Depending on your nationality you can either get one before you go or apply on arrival. Make sure you check with your local embassy to check the Aruba visa laws for your country. 

3. – Travel insurance. I actually have travel insurance with my bank, Nationwide. I pay £10 a month and get it included along with phone insurance and breakdown cover. Before I had this I used World Nomads for my travel insurance and would recommend them to anyone. 

4. – Working debit and credit cards. Check with your bank that your cards will work in Aruba, and have $50/$100 stashed in your suitcase just in case. It also helps to know how to send money with debit card if you need to move funds before your trip.
