Aruba Holiday Shopping Guide

Gift bags on the beach with a starfish: Aruba shopping

Attend one of our holiday markets in December and embrace the festive cheer while shopping from dozens of local vendors. Or head to one of our boutiques and support our community by purchasing locally made candles, art, jewelry, and souvenirs.
