Baby Beach provides a blissful setting suitable for kids, as well as inexperienced snorkelers and swimmers. Within a calm lagoon, the shallow waters and gentle waves allow you to wade out far from shore and still touch the bottom. A number of snack kiosks and rustic huts complete the authentic Aruban setting. This makes a good alternative to the busier beaches near popular hotels, and several outfits offer snorkeling gear and beach beds for rent.

  • We travelled down to Baby Beach from the Malmok area one day to experience it. It is very nice family oriented beach - lots of area for wading, plenty of parking and an all-around nice beach...

  • The beach it’s stunning clear waters great for snorkel but unfortunately for rent beach chairs and a umbrella for a couple they asked $80 usd !!! Also there Is Only one bathroom and no water to shower . Take in consideration the cost to spend a day there because it’s too high .
  • One of the best beaches to snorkel in Aruba. You will pass the big red anchor on your way to Baby Beach. Large area to snorkel with reefs and fish in only 10-15 feet deep water. Bar and restaurant is there.
  • Beautiful lagoon away from the crowded beaches and high rise hotels. Clear shallow water, but not good for swimming
  • 100% worth the drive even if you are the most causal of tourists and not an ISLAND BOI. So the drive is about 40 min from eagle beach maybe 45 min from hotel Zone give or take 10 mins depending on traffic. Many traffic circles learn how to use them and you will be a pro. At the end of the trip roads bumpy and there’s some donkeys on the road in the same place by the big anchor. You know what they say about the big anchor! When you are almost there after the village with the bumpy road and non painted speed bumps there’s a port o potty that’s the only place to take a Chuck-e-cheese at this beach, unless you buy something from the restaurants at both ends. Parking is plentiful even if it’s busy. Checks out the low wake area front left for some warm water. Very mild currents and no waves TOTAL VIBE ALERt!!! Tip of the day for my fair skinned brothers and sisters, because we are so close to the equator consider going heavier than spf50 we burned so easy. Total vibe great place czek it out
  • Beautiful, tranquil beach. Great for swimming and snorkeling! We went on a Friday and it was fairly busy. Bring a chair and an umbrella if you can as all the shelters were taken when we got there. The water is absolutely beautiful!
