Arashi Beach, located in the beautiful island of Aruba in the West Indies, is a true gem of the Dutch Caribbean. Nestled in Central America's stunning Caribbean region, this beach offers breathtaking views and endless relaxation. As you stroll along Arashi Beach, you may spot a majestic brown pelican gracefully soaring through the clear blue skies. Its presence adds to the natural beauty that surrounds this idyllic destination. But Arashi is not just about its sandy shores and azure waters; it has also inspired artists throughout history. In 1795, Arashi Ryu_zo depicted Heiemon in a captivating colour woodblock print. And around 1812, Shunkosai Hokushu captured the essence of actor Arashi Rikan I with great skill and artistry. Nature enthusiasts will be delighted to discover Iso arashi or polka-dot camellia - Thea japonica Nois Forma - adding vibrant splashes of color to this already picturesque landscape. Returning to our beloved Aruba's shores, another encounter with a brown pelican awaits at Arashi Beach. These magnificent creatures are part of what makes this place so unique and unforgettable. Delving into Japanese culture, we find references to legendary figures like Minamoto no RaikAc and KumesaburAc no Yosoihime portrayed by none other than Arashi Hinasuke himself. His talent shines through as he brings these characters to life on stage. And let us not forget ARASHI KICHISABURO III, an esteemed Japanese Kabuki actor who mesmerized audiences with his portrayal of Sasaki Takatsuna (1160-1214). His performances were nothing short of extraordinary.
