Discovering Paradise
Explore & Protect
Discover Curaçao's stunning protected areas, from the rugged hills of Christoffel National Park and the crashing blowholes of Shete Boka to flamingo-dotted salt pans and vibrant coral reefs.
Curaçao's largest park and its 372 m summit
The largest park on Curaçao, wrapped around Mount Christoffel, the island's 372 m high point. Hike to the summit, drive the scenic loops, and spot white-tailed deer, wild orchids, and the old Savonet plantation house.
Curaçao's protected reef wall along the leeward coast
The protected reef park running along the calm leeward south coast. Fringing reefs and steep drop-offs sit just offshore, feeding some of the best shore diving and snorkeling in the Caribbean.
Seven wild inlets on Curaçao's rugged north coast
The wild north coast where Atlantic swell hammers a string of rocky inlets. Walk to the Boka Tabla wave cave, watch blowholes erupt, and look for sea turtles that nest on the hidden beaches.
Boardwalks and kayak routes through coastal mangroves
A mangrove wetland eco-park a short hop from Willemstad. Follow elevated boardwalks and paddle kayak routes through the channels, watching herons, crabs, and young fish in the roots.
