Five days is enough to see the best of Curaçao without rushing. This plan mixes city walks, beaches and the quieter west.
Day 1 and 2: Willemstad
Walk the colourful waterfront in Punda and Otrobanda, cross the pontoon bridge and have dinner in Pietermaai.
Day 3: West coast
Drive to Westpunt for cliffs, coves and snorkelling at Playa Kenepa or Grote Knip.
Day 4: Klein Curaçao
Take a boat trip to the uninhabited island for white sand and turtles.
Day 5: Slow morning
Finish with a market visit, local food and a last swim before your flight.
