    Druif Beach

    Happy New Year to all!!

    Planning my first Aruba vacation since 2019, forever to be know as pre-covid.

    We have been visiting since our honeymoon in 1996, the last few times we have stayed at the Divi Dutch.
    We have enjoyed staying there but have recently seen some concerning posts about beach erosion at Druif Beach,
    I am aware the beach has a tendency to come and go here, but wondering how it seems now from peeps who have
    been in Aruba recently.

    We like the spot that is right in between the Tamarjn and the divi all inclusive, no co-incidence that the beach bar
    is right there!

    Our plan is for the end of March, can't come soon enough.

    welcome to the posting side!
    we were in Aruba Dec 1 - 15 and were at that beach bar 3x during our stay.
    the beach there in-between the Tam and Divi AI was a bit smaller than we have seen in the past.
    it was probably 30 feet from the first row of palapas.
    but, that was a month ago.

    again, welcome to the posting side

    Thanks for the welcome and the reply.

    30 ft is definitely smaller than our last visit. I may need to re--evaluate We prefer the low rise area, and definitely prefer to have a kitchen. I will look ar a few other options. We want to arrive on a Thursday to avoid airport chaos and will b staying 2 weeks. Renting a time share could b an option but it's harder to find a place for 2 weeks starting on Thursday without moving units, which I don't want to do.
    Oh well, first world problems!!

    Hi,
    If you want up to date view of the beach check out 'Lets go with Hyro' on YouTube. He recently put up a few videos of the beach conditions at Druif.
