The Caribbean is known for its beautiful beaches and sunny vibes. But lately, some islands have seen a rise in crime and health concerns, leading to U.S. travel advisories.
That’s where Aruba stands out. According to the Caribbean Island Safety Index 2025, Aruba is the safest island in the region. The report, created by experts from Sandals Resorts, looked at U.S. travel warnings, local crime, hurricane risk, and healthcare. Aruba came in #1 with a top score of 9.3 out of 10.
Why Aruba is So Safe:
Aruba is known as “One Happy Island” for a reason. It has a very low crime rate, excellent roads, and strong public safety. It also sits outside the hurricane belt, which means no major storms—and over 300 sunny days a year!
The U.S. travel advisory gave Aruba a Level 1 safety rating—the best possible. Healthcare on the island also meets high Dutch standards, earning it a score of 8 out of 10.
