CURAÇAO
One of the delightful ABC islands off the coast of Venezuela
(Aruba and Bonaire being the other two), Curaçao is a veritable
wonderland for travelers yearning for a bit of paradise
combined with sophisticated European-style shopping and
dining. Coral reefs ring the island, attracting the intrepid diver.
And secluded picture-perfect cove beaches entice you to relax
your cares away. There's never a shortage of exciting things to
do—with sailing or fishing, kayaking or windsurfing, shopping
or dining, the options feel practically endless.
You will find it's the island's colonial past that truly charms the
visitor. Willemstad shimmers in the Caribbean sun, with its
pastel hues as soothing as a gentle tropical breeze. And it's
the incomparable blending of traditional Dutch architecture
with unique island influences that led this quaint haven to
be internationally classified as a World Heritage Site.
