1. World-Class Kitesurfing & Windsurfing at St. Joris Bay
You don’t have to travel far for epic watersports action. Right outside our secure gated community lies St. Joris Bay, globally recognized as Curaçao’s premier kitesurfing, windsurfing, and wingfoiling hotspot. Thanks to steady Caribbean trade winds blowing year-round and a spacious, shallow-water launch area, it is the absolute perfect place to book a kite lesson or go for an unforgettable sunset session.
2. Swim with Wild Sea Turtles at Westpunt
For the best snorkeling spots in Curaçao, a scenic day trip to the rugged west side of the island (Westpunt) is an absolute must. Head down to Playa Grandi (also known as Playa Piscado), a charming local fisherman’s beach where you are guaranteed to swim with wild sea turtles in their natural habitat. The turtles gather here daily as the fishermen clean their catch, offering a breathtaking, up-close marine adventure that you will remember for a lifetime. Don’t forget to pack your snorkel gear and an underwater camera!
3. Off-Road Adrenaline: Curaçao Quad & Buggy Tours
If you love high-speed thrills and getting a little dusty, booking an action-packed Curaçao quad tour or guided buggy excursion is a necessity. These adventurous tours blast through the rugged, desert-like terrain of the North Coast. You will drive along dramatic limestone cliffs, conquer rocky paths, and witness massive ocean blowholes where the wild Caribbean Sea crashes violently against the shore. Many of these tours pass right through the raw landscapes of St. Joris, meaning you can start your off-road machine right around the corner from your penthouse.
4. Relax at Cas Abao or Grote knip Beach: A Global Top Beach
When it is time for pure tropical relaxation, pack your beach bag and drive to Cas Abao Beach.

Cas Abao offers excellent facilities, including comfortable beach chair rentals, a beachside massage palapa, a local bar, and fantastic snorkeling right off the shore along a vibrant coral reef.
5. Family Fun at the Famous Curaçao Ostrich Farm
Located just a short, 3-minute drive from Sea & Sun Resort is the renowned Curaçao Ostrich Farm, one of the most popular family-friendly attractions on the island. This eco-adventure farm offers an incredible glimpse into the world of these massive birds. You can hop onto a custom guided safari truck tour, learn fascinating facts, and even feed the African ostriches by hand (a fantastic photo opportunity!). It is an easy, fun-filled morning activity located literally in your own backyard.
6. Dive into Local History & Culture in Willemstad
Take a break from the beach and immerse yourself in the rich culture of our capital city, Willemstad, a protected UNESCO World Heritage site. Stroll across the iconic Queen Emma Pontoon Bridge—affectionately known as the “Swinging Old Lady”—which floats across the harbor. Capture stunning photos of the brightly colored Dutch-colonial houses on the historic Handelskade, and lose yourself in the trendy, art-filled streets of Punda, Otrobanda, and the historic Pietermaai District, filled with boutique shops and local markets.
7. Experience Legendary Sunset Happy Hours at Jan Thiel Beach
