Located in the Southern Caribbean, outside the hurricane belt, Curacao enjoys a year-round 84° temperature and over 35 spectacular beaches tucked into coves and expansive coral reefs. The capital, Willemstad, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, famous for its brightly-colored colonial architecture and the floating Queen Emma Bridge and the sand-floored, 17th-century Mikvé Israel-Emanuel Synagogue. It’s also a gateway to western beaches like Blue Bay, a popular diving site. Whether you’re roaming iconic Willemstad, lively Mambo Beach or adventurous Westpunt, Curaçao combines urban and outdoor life like no other island.
