Which mobile networks does Aruba have?
Aruba is a small island and mobile coverage is effectively island wide: the whole island already had 3G data back in 2007, and both SETAR and Digicel now run LTE networks.
- SETAR: The island's incumbent full service telecom, it markets itself as running Aruba's best LTE network and sells tourist prepaid bundles from about AFL 5 to 30.
- Digicel: The Caribbean group's Aruba operation runs GSM, UMTS and LTE service with prepaid plans from about AFL 5 to 50, and guides rate it the easier in person buy for visitors.

Is 5G available in Aruba?
Neither operator advertises 5G. Digicel Aruba's listed bands are GSM, UMTS and LTE only, and SETAR promotes its LTE network, so plan for 4G speeds.
How much data do you need in Aruba?
Light use is about 500 MB a day. That covers maps, messages, and some browsing. Normal use with photos, social apps, and short videos runs 1 to 1.5 GB a day. Streaming and hotspot use can eat 2 to 3 GB a day. Here is what each size costs in Aruba right now:
eSIM or a local SIM at the airport in Aruba?
An eSIM is ready before you land. No queue, no shop, no handing over your passport at a counter. Data for Aruba starts at $11.70 on this page, which is hard for airport kiosks to beat. A local SIM still makes sense if you need a local phone number or plan to stay for months. For a normal trip, the eSIM wins on price and effort.
Setting up your Aruba eSIM
Buy your planYou get a QR code by email within minutes of paying.
Install before you flyScan the QR code on wifi at home. Airport and hotel wifi can be weak.
Turn it on when you landEnable the eSIM and turn on data roaming for it, then give it a minute to find the network.
Check the validity clockSome plans start counting at purchase, not at first use. Check before you buy.
Good to know before you land in Aruba
Bring your passport, as operator stores require ID for in person SIM purchases.
You can get a SIM at Queen Beatrix airport, but the airport option costs more with a smaller selection. Provider stores and convenience stores in Oranjestad give better prices.
If your phone will not connect, select the network manually instead of relying on automatic selection. Prepaid packs are priced in Aruban florin (AFL), roughly 1.79 to the US dollar.
Aruba Travel eSIM FAQ
Everything you need to know about using an eSIM in Aruba
What is the cheapest eSIM for Aruba?
Right now the cheapest option ranked by price per GB is MegaEsim with 1 GB for 7 Days at $11.70. That works out to $11.70 per GB. Prices change often, so the table above always shows the current order.
Which networks will my eSIM connect to in Aruba?
The plans we compare connect to Digicel. The exact network depends on the plan you pick. Check the plan details before you buy if one network matters to you.
Do Aruba eSIMs support 5G?
The networks our plans use in Aruba currently run on 4G. That is enough for maps, messaging, video calls, and streaming in most cases.
Can I top up my Aruba eSIM if I run out?
Yes. 9 of the 9 plans here support top ups, so you can add data without buying a new eSIM. The rest need a fresh plan once the data ends.
Will I still receive bank SMS and OTP codes?
Yes, if you keep your home SIM active. Travel eSIMs are data only. Your phone can hold both at once, so leave your normal SIM on for SMS and use the eSIM for data. Turn off roaming data on the home SIM to avoid charges.
Do these eSIMs include a phone number or calls?
The plans we compare are data only, so there is no local number. Calls work fine over WhatsApp, FaceTime, or any app that uses data. If you need a real local number, a local SIM is the better tool.
