Aruba Description
Lying just 24km/15mi north of Venezuela, Aruba is known for its white sandy beaches, as well as its Dutch Colonial architecture in Oranjestad, the capital. The persistent winds keep humidity low and the year-round temperature at an average of 27C/81F. The winds are also responsible for the strangely bent divi-divi trees around the island. Aruba also has unusual rock formations, Indian caves and a natural rock bridge. Vegetation on this desert island consists of cactus, aloe vera, kiwi and sea grape.
