A MUST-DO ON YOUR ARUBA VACATION!
Quick Details
Sometimes you just need to escape the routine of the hotel scene. Switch it up with boundless activities, unlimited food and beverage, and unrestricted relaxation on a unique coral island just off the shores of Aruba.
*Remember we are a Coral Island. The Beach can be a little rocky.
We recommend you bring a water shoe or buy one at our gift shop.
*The safety and well-being of our flamingos is our top priority. From time to time, based on the advice of our veterinarian, the flamingos may not be available for viewing. We thank you for your understanding.
De Palm Island is home to a beautiful flock of Chilean flamingos and Cuban flamingos that enjoy life in a reserved section of the island.
Guests with regular tickets can see our elegant flamingos from a distance.
Please take note that you can mingle with the flamingos only if you rent a Beach Cabana or a Premium Seating.

The coral reef just off De Palm Island is one of Aruba’s most spectacular snorkel sites. There’s no easier way to catch a glimpse of the spectacular marine life of the Caribbean, and in particular, the stunning blue parrotfish that are endemic to Aruba. Great snorkeling can be had in both waist-high and deeper waters. All snorkel gear is provided, as well as instruction. Complimentary snorkel tours of the reef are offered twice daily.
Your little ones will love the kids water park, where they can shoot water cannons, zip down slides, go under water showers, and get soaked by a tipping bucket.
Twist and turn all the way down in one of our new breathtaking free-body slides. For those looking for something more daring, slide down a dark, twisting tunnel that will drop you into a spiraling bowl. *Guests under 48 inches tall (1.22 m) are not permitted on these rides.
At De Palm Island, you can lounge in the sun to your heart’s content or splash about in the crystalline, turquoise water that surrounds the island. Beach chairs and palapas for shade are included, but bring your own towel. For your own comfort, bring water shoes (also for sale at our Gift Shop).
For ultimate relaxation, book your own private beach cabana with a sea view, treat yourself to a massage, or both!
Unlimited fun with unlimited rides! Beat the heat and ride the waves. Hop on a banana boat for a splashing and thrilling adventure.
Kids must be at least 10 years old.
The Banana Boat starts at 11 a.m. and closes for 30 minutes for lunch during the day (no specific time).
Get a team together and challenge each other to a game of basketball.
