No need to limit your Aruba fun to the sunny daytime. There is more than enough Aruba night life to keep you busy for your whole vacation, though you might have trouble finding time to sleep.

Bars, clubs, casinos, late night dinner cruises, live shows or even a simple movie can all offer you something to do every night you're in Aruba. Many hotels and resorts have their own offerings for night life, which can be very convenient but there are lively venues all over the island.

At least one night needs to be spent around the Paseo Herencia Mall, in the Palm Beach area by the Holiday Inn. It's styled after an old village plaza, and it's filled with shopping, dining and modern cinemas. Every evening, there is a water fireworks show that is worth planning to see.

If any of these Aruba activities have caught your eye, here are a few more details about them and some of the best locations.
