Baby Beach

Baby Beach in Aruba is a calm, shallow lagoon-like bay with clear turquoise waters, making it one of the best spots on the island for relaxing and swimming. The water stays waist-deep for a long distance, which is perfect for a leisurely dip and particularly suitable for families. The natural bay, is almost enclosed and protected by a reef, which keeps the currents mild and the atmosphere peaceful.

Located on the southeastern coast of the island, near San Nicolas, Baby Beach feels more secluded than the beaches near the main tourist areas.

Snorkelling is popular here, especially around the reef at the mouth of the bay where colourful fish gather. Sunbeds and umbrellas are available for rent, and there’s a small beach bar offering food and drinks.

Despite its quiet setting, it’s easy enough to reach by car from Oranjestad or the main hotel areas. The mix of soft sand, clear water, and safe-swimming makes Baby Beach a great spot to unwind and enjoy the Caribbean scenery.
