Aruba was nice (been there just once about 5 years ago) superb beaches, good diving, not much else, not sure I'd go back again, far prefer Maui there are dozens more things to do and see even though its substantially further from the UK.

One of my kids got stung by a Man 'o War on Maui maybe 15 years ago but I've never seen one on the beaches or from a boat (I never saw the one that stung her but from the description that's what it was) , might be time of year dependent perhaps, I tend to go sometime in April-May or Oct-Nov (not the whole two months unfortunately!) but it was probably July when we were there and she got stung.

Could be worse, I went to Oz 10 years ago and the sea was out of bounds except behind mesh nets, as the buggers that sting you there don't just hurt, they kill. (like most of Australias wildlife it seems )

So will be interesting to see how Nokia, Msft and Apple do comparatively between say 1 Sep and 1 Nov. (though if NOK dips below $2 I may put a toe in the water there as well as Hawaii)
