I was in Aruba many years ago. It is a windy desert island with amazingly strong sun. I had just spent 2 weeks in Florida over Xmas/New Years. I went to Aruba during the Super Bowl so I still had a very nice base tan. I went to the beach for 15 minutes without sun screen and got the worst sun burn of my life. I have pretty dark skin so its defintely not for the fair skinned.
