Bon Bini!

As of 1634 Curaçao is part of The Kingdom of the Netherlands and has recently been placed on the World Heritage List of UNESCO. The population of the island is a melting pot of many cultures and nationalities. The people are friendly and hospitable and English as well as Spanish and Dutch are spoken beside the native language Papiamentu.

Willemstad, the capital, is divided in two parts by the St. Anna Bay: Punda and Otrobanda. These are connected by an unique ponton bridge and many of the historical buildings show the architectural style of the Dutch. There are many interesting museums such as the Kura Hulanda Museum with african art and the history of the slave trade, the Maritime Museum and Postal Museum to name a few. Shopping in the streets of Willemstad is an adventure, but there are also shopping malls in the suburbs where shopping is worthwhile

The sun (almost) always shines on tropical Curaçao with no less than 45 beaches - large and small Ð and a beautiful underwater world, a paradise for beach-, diving- and aquatic sports lovers. There are many official PADI dive schools that organize diving and snorkeling courses and trips. If you prefer to be active on land, there are many interesting possibilities, such as hiking through the Christoffel National Park, climbing the Christoffel Mountain, visiting the Hato Caves or making a jeep safari

Curaçao nightlife can be enjoyed indoor and outdoor. Dining possibilities are numerous: you can eat in style or with your feet in the sand, overlooking the sea or the thousands of lights of the city. The situation of Curaçao so close to South America and many Caribbean islands make the possibilities for a side trip or honeymoon to these places very attractive
