Playa Porto Mari: relaxing with pigs on the beach\u00a0<\/h2><p>Playa Porto Mari is a beautiful white sandy beach on the west coast of Cura\u00e7ao, known for its unique reef and... beach pigs! While you are sunbathing or taking a dip in the turquoise sea, two curious pigs (Willy and Woody) might just walk by. That makes this beach one of the nicest places on Cura\u00e7ao, especially if you are traveling with children.<\/p><p>But make no mistake: these pigs are not of the cuddly variety. They are hefty beasts that like to roll in the mud and sometimes look for food. They are used to people, but be careful, especially with young children. Fun to see, but not a cuddly attraction.<\/p><p>The sea at Playa Porto Mari is calm and shallow, making it a very nice beach for swimming and snorkeling. Just offshore is the double reef of Porto Mari, which surprises both novice and experienced snorkelers and divers with colorful fish and coral.<\/p><p><strong data-start=\"1077\" data-end=\"1084\">Tip<\/strong>: Visit Porto Mari in the morning for the most peace and clear underwater visibility.

This charming beach club is tucked away at the Coral Estate Resort and is a place for those looking for peace and enjoyment. Do not expect a \"normal\" sandy beach here, but a unique setting with sunbeds on a sandy plateau, a rocky coastline and access to the sea via a stone staircase. The azure blue sea, swaying palm trees and the fine beach vibes make it one of the tastiest places to relax on Cura\u00e7ao.<\/p><p data-start=\"695\" data-end=\"1032\">Character is especially popular among couples and groups of friends looking for a relaxing day in style. The location is an oasis of calm surrounded by meter-high cacti, aloe vera plants and pastel-colored houses. There is excellent cuisine, friendly service and more than enough shade under the palm trees and umbrellas. Extra plus: Coral Estate's infinity pool is within walking distance and you can use it as a visitor to Character.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-cd1d4d2 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-eae-slider=\"43983\" data-id=\"cd1d4d2\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-5fd6287\" data-eae-slider=\"43911\" data-id=\"5fd6287\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-69b856c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"69b856c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Accessibility Karakter Beach Club<\/h3><p class=\"\" data-start=\"1034\" data-end=\"1340\">From popular beaches such as Mambo Beach and Jan Thiel Beach, it is about a 40- to 50-minute drive.

Grote Knip: the most photogenic beach in Cura\u00e7ao<\/h2><p data-start=\"130\" data-end=\"440\">If you were to make a postcard of Cura\u00e7ao, Grote Knip (also known as Playa Kenepa Grandi) would look great on it. It is without a doubt one of the most beautiful beaches on the island. Photos don't do the water justice: in reality the color is even more intense and truly breathtakingly beautiful. Think snow-white sand, clear turquoise water and a viewpoint at the top of the cliff that begs to be photographed.\u00a0<\/p><p data-start=\"442\" data-end=\"730\">Grote Knip is a public beach and popular with both tourists and locals. Especially on weekends, it gets crowded with Curacaoans who come here to barbecue and swim with family and friends. During the week it is a lot quieter and ideal for enjoying the surroundings in peace.<\/p><p class=\"\" data-start=\"732\" data-end=\"1052\">Besides relaxing on the beach, you can do some good snorkeling here, especially along the cliffs on both sides of the bay. Don't expect extensive facilities, but there are lounge chairs and umbrellas for rent. There is also a beach shack where you can get something to eat and drink. Want a nice fresh smoothie? Then get it at the viewpoint before heading down and onto the beach.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-53735ae elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-eae-slider=\"83006\" data-id=\"53735ae\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-d866240\" data-eae-slider=\"6933\" data-id=\"d866240\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4bbd118 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4bbd118\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Accessibility Big Cut<\/h3><p class=\"\" data-start=\"1034\" data-end=\"1340\">The beach is located in the west of Cura\u00e7ao, about a 50-minute drive from Willemstad.

Mainly because this beach is not so touristy yet.\u00a0<\/p><p class=\"\" data-start=\"200\" data-end=\"527\">Playa Daaibooi is a charming and quiet beach on the west coast of Cura\u00e7ao, near the village of Sint Willibrordus. Here you will encounter mostly locals enjoying a BBQ in the shade of the trees on weekends. The atmosphere is friendly and authentic. No fuss and fancy beach clubs, just a lovely place to relax.<\/p><p class=\"\" data-start=\"529\" data-end=\"835\">The water there is calm and clear, making for fine snorkeling. Chances are you will see turtles, especially if you swim a little further into the water.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-09b0810 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-eae-slider=\"51151\" data-id=\"09b0810\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-bb5497b\" data-eae-slider=\"94083\" data-id=\"bb5497b\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-054bb96 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"054bb96\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Getting to Playa Daaibaai<\/h3><p class=\"\" data-start=\"1034\" data-end=\"1340\">Playa Daaibooi is about a 30-minute drive from Willemstad and is easily accessible by car.

Klein Cura\u00e7ao: a day trip to an uninhabited paradise<\/h2><p>Klein Cura\u00e7ao is perhaps the most heavenly part of the island, or rather, just next to it. This uninhabited island is about 25 kilometers southeast of Cura\u00e7ao and can only be reached by boat. Think snow-white sand, clear blue water, an iconic lighthouse and the wreck of a stranded oil tanker: the island is small but photogenic and a must-do for your vacation.<\/p><p>You can visit Klein Cura\u00e7ao only through an organized tour. From the port of Jan Thiel or Spanish Water, you sail to the island in about 1.5 to 2 hours. Most day trips include breakfast, lunch, snorkeling gear and drinks. There are no facilities on the island itself, so you are completely dependent on the boat tour provider.<\/p><p>Besides sunbathing and swimming, you can do some fantastic snorkeling here and, with a little luck, even spot sea turtles. Also fun: hike to the abandoned lighthouse for a little adventure or explore the shipwreck on the rougher side of the island.<\/p><p>Read all of our <a href=\"https:\/\/travander.nl\/en\/day-trip-small-curacao\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong data-start=\"1324\" data-end=\"1368\">tips for a day trip to Klein Cura\u00e7ao<\/strong><\/a> and find out which boat tour suits you best.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-30a3f56 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-eae-slider=\"55007\" data-id=\"30a3f56\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-96d970e\" data-eae-slider=\"7653\" data-id=\"96d970e\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a8b9d12 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"a8b9d12\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"576\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/travander.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Miss-Ann-Boat-Trips-Klein-Curacao-576x1024.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-58123\" alt=\"Miss Ann Boat Trips\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travander.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Miss-Ann-Boat-Trips-Klein-Curacao-576x1024.jpg 576w, https:\/\/travander.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Miss-Ann-Boat-Trips-Klein-Curacao-169x300.jpg 169w, https:\/\/travander.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Miss-Ann-Boat-Trips-Klein-Curacao.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Beach Club Miss Ann Boat Trips<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-aa7d9a4\" data-eae-slider=\"21695\" data-id=\"aa7d9a4\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-31206ba elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"31206ba\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/travander.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Dagtrip-Klein-Curacao-1024x682.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-58118\" alt=\"Day trip Klein Curacao\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travander.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Dagtrip-Klein-Curacao-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/travander.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Dagtrip-Klein-Curacao-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/travander.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Dagtrip-Klein-Curacao-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/travander.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Dagtrip-Klein-Curacao-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/travander.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Dagtrip-Klein-Curacao.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Klein Curacao - beach club Mermaid Boattrips<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-7be67fc elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-eae-slider=\"30670\" data-id=\"7be67fc\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_eae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-bdb2b5d\" data-eae-slider=\"26744\" data-id=\"bdb2b5d\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-25dbf3c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"25dbf3c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2>8.
