About Us

The port of Curaçao marks the beginning of an unforgettable island experience. Along the coastline of Curaçao lies a colorfully vibrant oasis with a whole new vibe and a warm welcome to all visiting cruisers. The island's capital city, Willemstad, offers the infamous Handelskade, a waterfront strip of colorful buildings. Willemstad is also noted as a UNESCO World Heritage Site because of its rich cultural diversity, authenticity, and historic influence that is still present in colonial-style architecture today. When visitors aren't immersed in the history of it all, they are taking in the unique blend of European and Caribbean culture that can be experienced through the tasty cuisine at one of the many delicious places to eat. A day in the capital city also allows you to shop until you drop, sightsee at a local museum or aquarium, stumble upon a unique adventure, or enjoy a brisk across the Queen Emma Pontoon Bridge. One thing is certain: the minute you touch shore, you'll never want to leave.
