In this largest of the Netherlands Antilles, 160,000 residents from 55 different cultures call Curaçao their beautiful island home. Just 35 miles off the coast of Venezuela, Curaçao is where tropical charm, Latin style, a proud African heritage and European sophistication meet in the Caribbean.

The island of Curaçao was formed from volcanic limestone on which coral had been growing for centuries -- and still is -- making the lush reefs surrounding the island a scuba diver’s paradise. There are over 65 pristine dive sites with visibility up to 150 feet, and the island's shore diving is among the best in the Caribbean. Great for divers and snorkelers alike.

Climate: Summer 85F 29C Winter 75F 24C
Water Temp 78 - 83F 25 -28C

Curacao lies in the southwestern Caribbean between its sister islands, Bonaire and Aruba. Collectively known as the "ABC Islands".
