Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. We were just there last month. admission fee is $3 pp. hours are 9:30am to 6:30pm. They do have chairs and umbrellas to rent but we just used the free chairs by the bar/restaurant since we were only there a couple hours. The water and beach are gorgeous. We did a private tour with Gone Caribe so that was our 3rd stop on the tour. I could have stayed there all day- it was my favorite stop!!
  2. We just went with GONE CARIBE last month and LOVED it. Joseph was the best! Very knowledgeable about the history of the island and took us to the greatest stops. LOVED them! Playa Porto Marie, Playa Piskado, and Shete Boka National Park. Saw the flamingos also on the last stop. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
  3. I wanted to give a review of the tour we did with GONE CARIBE with our stop in Curacao on Allure of the Seas last month, Sept 2022. Let me say this was one of the BEST private tours we have ever done. I was searching for something fun to do and see the beauty of the island and the West End Beaches. I went straight to the Curacao boards here on Cruise Critic. I found exactly what I was looking for from the recommendations of fellow cruisers. I contacted GONE CARIBE online and got a reply right away. Our custom tour with Joseph who was born and raised on the island included the following stops: Shete Boka National Park- turtle nests, coves, crashing waves, underground cave, volcanic rocks, corals, walking trails and inlets. Playa Piskado- swimming with the turtles, beautiful beaches. Playa Porto Marie- gorgeous beach for swimming, snorkeling, relaxing, full service bar and restaurant Flamingo Watching-flamingos on the salt lakes of Sint Willibrodus. This was a very informative tour and we all loved it. I highly recommend this company!! Curacao was beautiful and we were happy to be able to experience it this way.
  4. There is a pier you can walk down to see the turtles swimming in the water below you without going in, you can see them from the pier. However if you do go in, it is deep where the turtles are swimming. The water was rough last month because of the hurricane. Joseph told us it was not normally like that but he was prepared bringing us life vests. We were able to get in and swim with life vests and snorkel equipment. I would recommend water shoes as well because there was coral shells on the beach part where you get in.
  5. No, this is not with the cruise line. This is a private company. We just used them last month while on Allure of the Seas. Had the BEST day ever with Joseph. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!
