Overview
Curaçao lies outside the hurricane belt, which makes the island interesting for travellers who seek reliable weather. Jan Thiel on the south coast combines a lagoon, a long beach and small restaurants. Westpunt, at the far end, is the counterpart: cliffs, small bays such as Playa Kenepa and a sea that invites diving just a few metres from the shore. Between the two places lies an hour's drive, and the change feels like changing islands.
From November to April the air is dry, the water clear. Couples dive or snorkel on the reef straight from the shore, families spend the day in a shallow bay and return in the evening for dinner. Papiamentu, Dutch and English are spoken. Good to know: cards are widely accepted in hotels and restaurants, a tip of ten to fifteen per cent is customary if service is not included.
Which of the two coasts suits your rhythm is something you discuss in a video call with Private Islands.
