All West Beach Hopping Tour

8.All West Beach Hopping Tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 594 reviews · from $85

Spend about seven hours touring Curaçao’s west coast with guides such as Bob, Tammy, Marsha, or Sylvian. Visit Shete Boka National Park, Grote Knip, Cas Abao, and Playa Piskado, with time to swim, snorkel, spot turtles and flamingos, and hear about Curaçao’s history and daily life. Pickup and onboard drinks are included.

“Tour was extremely informative and hit a lot of great beaches and other sites along the western side of the island. It was tough to get a lot of time in each place but on a tight schedule it works as well as it can. Bobs tips at each location were really helpful to have the best time at each place without some of the “unknowns” like food lines, keeping your stuff handy, rental chairs, etc. Definitely family friendly. My kids loved it. Bring snacks as the tour is long and food isn’t always accessible.”

“The boat ride there was my favorite part, the captains were awesome! great choice in music, offered a drink and knew just how to navigate the waters. The island itself was a little dirty, crowded and hard to walk in the water. But the pigs were super cute, and we had just the right amount of time there to feed them and hang before hoping back on boat. GREAT option for a quick getaway.”

The beach was so crowded and found myself wanting to leave on the next boat back to paradise island. The snorkeling was cancelled due to the weather so that was also another disappointment. I would not do this again for money I spent, I felt it wasn’t worth it.”
