The Independent: "When's the best time to go to the Caribbean with kids? If you want to take out a second mortgage to pay for it, wait until winter. But if you and your little bounty hunters are partial to a bargain, the secret is to book your trip out of season, when prices are far more family friendly. In fact, departing during the summer months can give you all the fun – at a fraction of the cost."
Forbes, I have been a long time vacation homeowner on Aruba, the tiny Dutch Caribbean island off the coast of Venezuela. Only 20 miles long and 6 miles across, the cactus-filled, dry island features my favorite beach in the entire world. Endless days spent on the famed Eagle Beach floating in crystal clear, aquamarine warm waters is why massive throngs of tourists return annually to this island paradise.
