Playa Grandi

These two beaches work together. So if you visit one, you are in the other. Whatever your choice, be sure to rent scuba gear as this is by far the best destination for swimming with sea turtles and other marine creatures. The water is light blue with excellent visibility. Just be sure to invest in an underwater camera because there is so much to see below the surface.

The Playa Piskado beach is located in the north end of Curacao Island and it is popular for turtles habitats. The beach itself is beautiful, but the azure waters are full of turtles and the snorkeling at their side is a unique experience.

Playa Lagun

Playa Lagun is a beach on the Caribbean island of Curacao located in a small bay near the village of Lagoon, northwest of the island. An apartment complex was built around the bay. The beach is ideal for snorkeling.

Playa Lagun is an incredibly beautiful beach in northwestern Curacao. The Playa Lagun beach is also well protected by the steep cliffs that surround it apart from the fact that the beach is located at the end of a narrow bay. Recently, a complex of apartments overlooking the bay was built on a cliff. The beach also features some of the best restaurant, snack bar and also offers a diving school.

This beach needs a bit more to get there. In fact, it is nestled between two large rock formations giving you more experience on the edge of a creek than a wide beach. However, it is this small bay that makes it much quieter. You do not have to deal with many other beach lovers. While you enjoy the best water and the best sand of the Caribbean.
