cruisejunkie15 Posted April 2, 2008 #1 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Hello everyone, I will be in Curacao this coming January, and I was wondering what is a must do for first timers. This will be my Honeymoon cruise, we are in our mid to late 20's and like adventure as well as beach. We love to get to know the places we visit, please help us with ideas! Thanks!!!

canadiancruisers11 Posted April 3, 2008 #2 Share Posted April 3, 2008 What's up Junkie? Thought I'd help you out since we now love this island...Check out our pics of our cruise and look for the Curacao pics... http://good-times.webshots.com/album/562423077YSkbVC As well, try the thread "Just back from Southern Itinerary...." Put a review in there and Kon Tiki is in there for a review...Porto Mari is nice, pretty far from port and pricey cab ride but from what I hear its worth it, we just liked the environment with Kon Tiki...Hope it helps, let me know Newts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbert28 Posted April 8, 2008 #3 Share Posted April 8, 2008 We loved Cas Abao Beach. Great facilities, quiet and a great beach. The drive there is very picturesque. You could have a couples massage on the beach. It is cab ride of about 40 minutes but well worth it. They do have there one website as well. Our favorite beach of the cruise. The snorkeling is excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiseapril Posted May 1, 2008 #4 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Just came back from a cruise which stopped in Curacao. Went to Blue Bay Resort which we liked- good swimming at the beach and in the pool, lots of chairs and palapas, restrooms, a beach bar etc. It is West of Willemstad, a bit of a ride- we took the Beach Express bus excursion. Also, there is plenty to do in Willemstad-lots to see and for adventure on Curacao plenty of snorkeling- many like the Seaquarium area and beaches, others like Playa Porto Mari.

RustaRoo Posted May 18, 2008 #6 Share Posted May 18, 2008 Just came back from a cruise which stopped in Curacao.Went to Blue Bay Resort which we liked- good swimming at the beach and in the pool, lots of chairs and palapas, restrooms, a beach bar etc. It is West of Willemstad, a bit of a ride- we took the Beach Express bus excursion. I did this too and had a great time snorkeling. There are free showers adjacent to the washrooms. On the tour I did with Holland America, we were given a complimentary (soft) drink ticket too. Also, my snorkeling equipment was provided - they do not have vests though. I was a bit apprehensive at first but you really ARE very buoyant and the vest wasn't required. Once I got used to swimming without one, I was very comfortable. There was some toplessness at this beach (not just the men! ;)). It was not crowded at all, and I'd do it again.
