When it comes to travelling to the Caribbean as a gay couple, it can be a bit of a challenge given the overall regions conservative views, and even anti-gay laws on some islands.
But the ABC islands of Aruba, Bonaire and Curaçao are leaps and bounds ahead of the lie down of the Caribbean and as a result are some of the most popular choices of Caribbean islands for gay travellers.
We first visited Aruba for a day during our last Atlantis gay cruise and immediately fell in love with the island vibe, the white beaches, crystal clear sea and colourful houses. We knew we wanted to return so jumped at the chance for a longer visit later that same year. We were very excited to investigate just how male lover friendly Aruba was!

We spent five nights in Aruba exploring parts of the island, checking out different beaches, and eating. The island has many reefs and the crystal clear waters of the Caribbean produce it ideal for snorkeling and SCUBA, but Sergio and I opted to forgo such activities. This was truly a &#;fly-n-flop&#; holiday as my companion Tracey put it.
Where the gays are: I have a hunch one reason gay Caribbean cruises are so popular is because with the exception of Havana, Cuba and San Juan, Puerto Rico, there is no &#;gay life&#; to speak of on Caribbean islands, and Aruba is no exception.
