What should I pack?
What should I pack?
Aruba in December brings sunny days, refreshing breezes, and a festive island spirit. Pack light, breathable clothing for warm island days.
- Daytime Attire
- Stick to lightweight fabrics like linen or cotton to beat the heat.
- Sundresses, shorts, tanks, and cover-ups are ideal for beach days or poolside lounging.
- Aruba is famously windy year-round, so bring something to keep your hair in place during breezy beach days and outdoor adventures.
- Beachwear
- Pack swimsuits, sandals or flip-flops, a wide-brimmed hat, and sunglasses.
- Reef-safe sunscreen is a must, and a rash guard or swim shirt adds bonus sun protection.
- Evenings
- Island nights lean polished but relaxed. Resort casual works best — think flowy dresses, maxi skirts, polos, or button-downs with light pants.
- Excursions & Activities
- Comfortable walking shoes and athletic wear are great for exploring. Aruba can be breezy, especially on the water, so bring a light jacket or sweater just in case.
