Tips

Make sure to bring high-factor sunscreen, a hat, and sunglasses, as the sun in Curaçao can be very strong. Hydrate regularly by drinking plenty of water. The local currency is the Antillean Guilder (ANG), but US dollars are also widely accepted. Credit cards are accepted in many places, but it's always useful to have some cash for smaller expenses. Rent a car to explore the island at your own pace and discover secluded beaches and attractions. Avoid tap water and drink bottled water. Learn some basic Papiamentu words; locals will appreciate it. Book excursions and popular restaurants in advance, especially during high season. Be aware of your surroundings and take necessary precautions against petty crime, such as pickpocketing.
