    Your Sources For Everything Aruba.Info.News.Etc.

    What are your favorite sources for Aruba information? Please list all that you utilize.

    For me, The Aruba.com Forum is number one. The amount of information that one can gain here is irreplaceable.

    I also look at the Aruba Today, Bata Bleki, 24ora.com, Angelo's Newsletter, meteo.aw for weather, to name a few.

    I don't subscribe to Facebook, so that's not on the list. General opinion is that is not as considerate or as polite as this Forum.

    I very rarely look at TripAdvisor.

    Any comments are welcome.

    All that you mentioned.
    Aruba.com/forum and the mothership Aruba.com for most info.
    The forum here is informative, respectful and friendly.
    TripAdvisor forum is nothing short of confusing and sometimes mean spirited and is hard to find specific answers for specific questions. Here, it is categorized and easy to search.
    THINK.. is it Thoughtful? Helpful? Inspirational? Necessary? Kind? sidtm

    This forum is my number one option for Aruba information. You can count on accurate information and quick responses from the folks who post here.

    Exclusively this forum. T/A and Facebook have never interested me.




    I want to grow my own food, but I
    can't find any bacon seeds...

    This forum is informative and respectful - it is my #1 go-to. Not everyone will agree on every topic but people here are kind. There are no braggers on this forum either which is such a turn off on TA! I too like to read Aruba Today. I miss the days pre-COVID when the newspapers would be on every floor of the Marriott near the elevator. Don’t see them anymore. I also enjoy Angelo’s newsletter.

    This has been my main source for years to get all my Aruba info. All the people on this forum have been a wealth of great info. Visit Aruba also is a good site and they updated their moble app recently.
