Aruba nude beach
 
I have a friend going to Aruba and he wants to try a nude beach, not the entire trip, just for a day. Are there any in Aruba? When I was there ages ago, there was basic topless, but not nudity.

Was in Aruba not too long ago and not aware of any nude beaches.

If you want nude beaches your not going to find any in Aruba. There is a topless area at the Manchebo and at the Aruba Grand. That's all that I can remember, I have been there four times in the last 6 years. Try St. Martin (Orient Beach) or Negril, Jamaica (anywhere!). You'll have better luck there.

Sonesta Island has an adults only area and some do go nude. You will find topless at all the beaches in Aruba (but more so in the low-rise area) but not at the pools. Also the women cover up when walking around. You can also drive around as there are some seculded beaches.

Thanks guys, I didn't think there were any, at least I couldn't remember any. I knew there was topless but he's looking for that first thrill of running around nekked on the beach and has already booked Aruba. I told him to go French, but they wanted Aruba....
