Cupid is making his rounds and love is in the air—but on the tiny island of Aruba, it doesn’t take a special occasion to up the romantic ante.
Touch down in Aruba and you’ll be greeted with a warm “bon bini”—“welcome” in Papiamento, a language spoken only on the Dutch-Caribbean islands of Aruba, Bonaire, Curaçao, and Sint Eustatius. While Aruba presents an enriching blend of cultures, it’s hospitable to Americans, too; English is commonly spoken, and while the official currency is the Aruban Florin, U.S. dollars are widely accepted.
