Driving in Aruba

Before you book your car hire in the Aruba, why not read through our Aruba driving guide...

 

Aruba is yet another magnificent island set in the Caribbean. It is a serene and small island at only 32 kilometers in length. It has a unique climate. Unlike most Caribbean areas, Aruba has a dry climate and cactus abound its sands. The country has beautiful national parks, some religious grottos and chapels. It has its own brand of summer fun that attracts tourists from around the globe.

Driving around the area should be fun. In Aruba you drive on the right. Always remember to take your driving licence when you travel. Drivers should always wear their vehicle's safety gear. For bus, van and car owners, seatbelts are always a must and motorcyclists should always wear their helmets at all times. For child safety, children under 5 years should be in the safety seat of the vehicle. Older kids should always ride in the back seat. Never bypass a red light and remember that right turns are also prohibited when the red light is on. The Aruba traffic enforcers have added traffic circles at a number of intersections around the country. This way, traffic lights are lessened and traffic flows more smoothly.

Remember that speedometers are set in kilometres as well as speed signs. Always drive under 40 kilometers per hour in urban cities; if you are out of town, speed limit is 60 kilometers per hour. Speed limit can also vary in different places so take note of it as well.

It is a good thing that Aruba's main road, the L.G Smith Boulevard, is well lit. You can definitely find hotels and other tourist spots easily. Aruba uses international road signs so following traffic laws should not be a problem. In Oranjestad, most roads and intersections are one way. Road signs are also scarce in this area, so care should be taken.

Be extra careful when driving around Aruba. Roads can be quite slippery because of the accumulation of dust and oil on the road. Be on the look out for speeding cars, goats and donkeys! If you do encounter trouble on the road, you can contact the police by calling 911

At the north cost, there are beautiful places to see but are only accessible through dirt roads. You might want to use off-road vehicles when driving along that area.

Summary:

  • Speed limit may be as low as 40 km/h
  • Drive on the right
  • Carry your driving licence with you
  • For safety reasons, you should never drink and drive
