Brazilian citizens do not need a visa to enter Aruba for stays up to 90 days for tourism. However, you must possess a valid passport that remains valid for the duration of your stay. A critical requirement is the Yellow Fever International Certificate of Vaccination, which must be administered at least ten days before your departure from Brazil. Additionally, all travelers must complete the online Embarkation-Disembarkation card (ED Card) before arrival. You should also have proof of a return flight ticket and sufficient funds for your stay. While the process is generally straightforward, ensure your documents are in order to avoid delays at immigration. Local authorities are strict about the vaccination certificate, so keep it with your travel documents at all times during your transit and arrival.

Aruba is known for its One Happy Island spirit, blending Dutch heritage with Caribbean warmth. While the atmosphere is relaxed, it is important to follow local norms. Swimwear is perfectly acceptable on the beaches and at pool areas, but you should dress more formally when entering shops, restaurants, or government buildings in Oranjestad. Tipping is customary, usually ranging from 10% to 15% if a service charge is not already included in your bill. Respect the natural environment by not touching the coral reefs or removing white sand from the beaches. Brazilians will find the locals very friendly, often speaking Papiamento, Dutch, English, and Spanish. Learning a few Papiamento phrases like Bon Bini for welcome will go a long way in building rapport with the residents during your vacation.

Navigating Aruba is simple and efficient. For maximum flexibility, renting a car is highly recommended, especially if you plan to explore the rugged terrain of Arikok National Park. Most major international rental agencies operate at the airport. If you prefer public transport, the Arubus service is reliable and connects the hotel districts with the capital, Oranjestad. Taxis are also widely available but operate on fixed rates rather than meters, so always confirm the price before starting your journey. For those staying in the Palm Beach area, many attractions are within walking distance. Brazilians will find driving easy as they drive on the right side of the road, just like in Brazil. Bicycles and scooters are also popular for short distances, providing a scenic way to enjoy the coastal views and tropical breeze.

Aruba is consistently ranked as one of the safest islands in the Caribbean. However, standard travel precautions still apply. Avoid leaving valuables unattended on the beach or inside a parked car. Be mindful of the strong sun; the island's proximity to the equator means UV rays are intense, so high-SPF sunscreen is a necessity. Don't be a tourist who only stays in the high-rise hotel zone; head to San Nicolas to see the vibrant street art and experience a more authentic local vibe. For the best photo opportunity, visit the California Lighthouse at sunset for a panoramic view of the island's coastline. TICKETS.COM.BR recommends trying a refreshing Balashi beer at a local 'rum shop' to truly connect with the island's culture and enjoy a genuine Aruban social experience away from the crowds.
