Here is a map of the Harbour:
S.E.L. Maduro & Sons shipping and transportation

There are 5 different wharves used by cruise ships. All are on the Otrabanda side, which is across the channel from the side with the shopping and history, called Punda. On the map, that's the left side of the channel for the piers, and the right for the sightseeing.

Mathey Wharf is #7. When we were in Curacao, we were at the MegaPier, #12. Other ports in use for cruise ships are the New Wharf (#4) and the West Wharves (#s 5&6). For technical info about the piers, go here:
