Aruba
Outside the hurricane belt. Reliably dry all year, windy.
A decent stretch with some sun and a chance of a shower.
Days 1–5 are usually reliable, 6–10 drift, 11–14 are the model guessing. Check again the day before you fly — more on what this can and can't do.
When to go
From the 2026 climate study, not the live forecast.The single most underused destination in this report: south of the hurricane belt, semi-arid (only 450–650 mm rain/year), sea 26–30°C every month, constant trade winds. No direct hurricane hit in living memory. Sargassum essentially absent on west and southwest leeward coasts (Eagle, Palm, Druif beaches). The September arbitrage is dramatic — when Antigua and Punta Cana are at peak storm risk, Aruba is 33°C with 30°C sea and dry.
