  • Beautiful beach! Get there by 10 for an umbrella and chairs. The tiki huts are reserved for the timeshares across the street.

  • Very nice beach. Big! Right in the heart of hotel row. Cabanas available to rent. Small walk-up grill to eat/get drinks at. Consistently busy: Some cigarette butts & beer caps in the sand. Great...

  • A beautiful beach with crystal clear water of many different colors, with a sugar-white sand beach. The beach is a little steep in the tide area, making it tough for walking, but it is quite wide...

  • This is the biggest beach of Aruba ! It’s in my top 5 ! The sunset in the point of the dividing between Divi and Eagle it’s the best spot to catch the sun goes down !! 100% recommended for younger crowds and to spread !!
  • Probably the best beach I've ever seen. Much quieter, cleaner and warmer waters than Palm Beach. There are no boats docked here, so you don't get the crowds from tourists and choppy waters from the boats. It's wide open so there are plenty amounts of space. Sand was white and soft. Water is crystal clear and warm. The Divi trees are definitely worth checking out and taking a photo of. Not that many restaurants in the area compared to Palm Beach. But if you want a quiet, spacious and pretty much a better beach, come here! Loved just waking up and down along the waters here.
  • Yes, it's as good as you already think it is!. The beach is absolutely gorgeous. It's a west facing beach so you won't see sunrise but you do see sunset. The sand is about as fine as I have ever seen. In many areas it's almost a powder. It's white and it's clean. The ocean is a gorgeous shade of turquoise and about 20 other shades of blue. We were in Aruba for 8 days and the first few days the ocean was calm and the beach was idyllic. The last few days the surf had picked up and was surprised to see 4- 5 ft waves! I got out there with many other people and had a blast body surfing and messing around. I'm glad we chose to stay on Eagle Beach. Our hotel was in a quieter section in the center of eagle beach and it never really got busy. To the south around Manchebo it was definitely busier as the hotels are much bigger. Eagle Beach does have a few dining options but not many. If you want a busier nightlife with more bars and restaurants, you need to go south to Manchebo or north to Palm Beach. The palm beach restaurant scene is pretty crazy and fun and you should definitely check it out, but I don't like sitting on the beach with a million people around, so we decided to stay on Eagle Beach and visit Palm Beach when we wanted. My girlfriend and I found easiest way to get around was on "bird" scooters. This kind of adds some fun to the adventure of going up to Palm Beach. It's about a 15 minute scooter ride from the middle of Eagle Beach to the beginning of the restaurant mayhem in Palm Beach. You can also scooter to Oranjestad, which we did a couple of times and that takes about 25 minutes on a scooter. Our last day in Aruba was on Dec 26th and four cruise ships docked that day adding about 14,000 people to the island. Needless to say, many of them came to Eagle Beach and it lost some of its charm as there are so many people. I'm glad we got to see it on quiet days and when I went on my morning walks sometimes I only saw two or three other people. It's a beautiful beach!
  • One of the most beautiful beaches in Aruba, the water, the sand! Everything is great. It's quite large and you can stay close to bars or you can find a more secluded place and enjoy the sun and the water. It's beautiful here most of the day but at sunset and at night it's quite spectacular. Enjoy the pictures!
  • A great beach with lots of white sand and warm seaweed free waters. The waves were pretty tame. We were staying at the the Eagle Aruba resort so the chairs and umbrellas were free. They also have parasailing and lots of other activities!
