Curacao Vacation Spots

There Are Curacao Vacation Spots that are amongst the Best in the Caribbean.

The real question however is this.

What makes Curacao special among Caribbean islands?

Curacao is different, because it has a strong European and African heritage, and in fact more than 50 nationalities have come together here in a fascinating mix, where Dutch, Spanish, and English are spoken as well as the local dialect.

Curacao somehow or other feels undiscovered, it feels exclusive, being one of the three ABC islands of the Dutch Antilles, the other two being Aruba and Bonaire. Curacao just isn’t touristy compared to most other Caribbean Islands. Of course being so far south, just off the coast of Venezuela may be part of the reason, but it certainly makes for a climate undisturbed by hurricanes and storms.

 People talk about the authentic Caribbean, well that is what you get on Curacao. In terms of the best and most loved Curacao Vacation Spots. However unlike many Caribbean islands architecture comes high on the list of things to see and do.

The colourful and historic capital Willemstaad with its stunning historical colonial architecture, all very reminiscent of the Dutch is full of old world charm. Associated with that are the quite amazing carnival

Of course for many visitors it is the guaranteed gorgeous weather, beaches and underwater life that are the main attractions. It isn’t necessarily the wide open long sandy beaches that you will love, more the small intimate rocky coves hidden by huge cliffs. You do have the choice of solitude or bustle.

Curacao has some of the best diving in the Caribbean, some of the dive locations being really spectacular.

The weather is of the guaranteed type being located in the tropics, just 12° north of the Equator, Curaçao has a warm, sunny climate all year. The average temperature is about 27° C , in other words mid eighties Fahrenheit.

At the end of the day for many visitors if asked about their favourite Curacao Vacation Spots they will tell you it is a combination of the architecture, the people, the carnival. Interestingly there are few who talk about a specific beach or view, instead and significantly it is the almost indefinable Curacao itself
