Next time you visit Curaçao you should go to BOASE, really expensive and luxurious; where I grew up. Scuba or Snorkeling is very nice there. and do not forget swimming with Dolphins at SeaQuarium at one of the only places recognised as a heaven for Dolphins; they are not captive but they keep coming back.

@MikeAndFriends2 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the raving review :) I don't think there are any areas where a 55 year old wouldn't be just fine. All beaches are frequented by all ages. As for where to stay, unless you want to live among the locals (we stayed in Sun Valley) then all the quality places will be by a beach. Good areas are Caracas Baai and Jen Thiel in the southern part which are more secluded. Or near Mambo & Cabana beach where there's plenty of shopping and restaurants. Then there's WIllemstad itself if you want to experience the city itself. The fancy places are by Parasass Beach, Blue Bay, and Habitat Curacao with the Coral Estate Luxury Resort

Hi, Thanks for sharing. We're going to Curacao in December and it seems as though there are a lot of beaches. Have you seen anywhere a list of the beaches there and the features of each one ? Don't think I have time to check out each one, lol. Thanks
@MikeAndFriends2 жыл бұрын
I haven't seen a list but there's a good amount of photos on Google maps. East and south east are mostly sandy beaches. The better ones are in rich areas close to hotels.

@@MikeAndFriends Thanks, I have been asking around and apparently if you see a nice beach, even at a hotel, you can use it but somebody from the hotel may approach you and ask for a fee. Did you experience that ?

@@robtheslob3940 that sounds like Blue Bay beach. Can't think of any other ones where this could happen. Well it's been a year since we've been there so maybe things have changed.

Thank you for making such great content. I'm thinking of going to Curacao next month. I made reservations for my birthday in another part of the Caribbean, but the hurricanes are making me nervous, so I'm reviewing your amazing videos again. How did you find the wonderful hosts/tour guides while in Curacao?
@MikeAndFriends2 жыл бұрын
We purely made a reservation through booking.com and the islands' wonderfulness came through in the form of our amazing hosts :) Thanks for watching out videos 🤠👍
