Hadicurari Beach, better known as Fisherman's Huts, is where Aruba's legendary trade winds create world-class conditions for windsurfing and kiteboarding. This is the home of the annual Hi-Winds competition, one of the largest wind sports events in the Caribbean. The beach itself is beautiful but often windy, making it more of a spectator sport or wind sport destination than a lounging beach. The old fisherman's huts that give it its nickname add rustic charm.
Best time
Afternoon, when the trade winds peak and the kiteboarders are out in force.
Swim safety
Windy and gusty, this is a wind-sports beach, not a swimming or lounging beach.
Parking
Free lot at Fisherman's Huts, shared with the kite/windsurf schools.
Shade
No real shade, bring an umbrella or rashguard.
