Willemstad, Curacao


Curaçao is the largest of the six islands that comprise the Netherlands Antilles. It gained autonomy from the Netherlands in 1954, but the Dutch influence is still very visible in Willemstad's architecture and culture. With the growth of the oil industry in Curaçao in the early 20th century, workers and their families came to the island from more than 50 countries, providing a varied and vibrant population. Everyone should experience the sights, sounds and energy of this unique destination.

The One Thing You Don't Want to Miss Explore Hato Caves and their mystical underground lake. After crossing the lake, you'll enter two large caverns with ancient Indian pteroglyphs. This surreal underground world is an amazing, memorable experience.

Other Fun Things to Do

Learn about the local flora and fauna while biking the unspoiled 4,500-acre Christoffel National Park.
Enjoy a guided trolley-train tour of this quaint city with its distinctive Dutch architecture.

Sporting Adventures
Set out on a safari in a two-person canoe. Explore the small caves, beautiful rugged coastline and spectacular cliffs of Curaçao.

Local Currency The Netherlands Antilles florin (NAF), also called a guilder, is the official currency. U.S. dollars, traveler's checks and credit cards are widely accepted.
