Experience Curaçao!

The area and the island

Curaçao is located in the southern Caribbean Sea. The island belongs to the Leeward Islands and therefore (unlike the Windward Islands) is not in the hurricane zone. The capital of Curaçao is Willemstad, with its world-famous colorful houses and buildings. The native language on Curaçao is Papiamento, but Dutch is also spoken everywhere on the island. About 25 km southeast of the island lays Klein Curaçao. This island belongs to Curaçao and is the best place for a nice day trip.


You can pay here with NAF, the Antillean guilder, which you can easily withdraw from ATMs throughout the island. In stores and restaurants, you can also pay with your debit or credit card.  In the area there are plenty fun activities to do and beautiful things to see, ensuring you’ll have an amazing time on Curaçao!
