Wide open sand, beautiful water, and the classic Aruba beach feel
Eagle Beach is one of the easiest beaches to love because it gives you that wide, open, postcard-style Aruba setting. The sand is soft, the water is beautiful, and there is usually enough space to feel less crowded than Palm Beach. I think it is best for swimming, walking, relaxing, and taking photos near the fofoti trees. It is not my first pick for buceo con snorkel, but for a classic beach day it is hard to beat. Shade can be limited depending on when you arrive, so I usually recommend getting there earlier or bringing what you need.
