BEACHES
Possibly the most talked about beach of Curacao. However, the name Mambo Beach belongs to a average restaurant/bar but is lively on Sunday evenings. Together with the restaurant/bar Wet 'n Wild, this is the place to be on Sunday evenings.
The official name of this beach is Seaquarium Beach. On the westside of this beach you can find Cabana / Kontiki Beachwhere the beach chairs are lined up in rows. You will also find these 'rows' in the area of Mambo Beach.
But on the eastside, where Lions Dive is located, it is more relaxed. Here you can lay between the palm trees and you don't have to sit in rows. Keep in mind that non Lions Dive guest will have to pay for the sun beds and beach chairs.
Knip Beach is very popular with the Curacaoan's themselves. Knip Beach lets you swim and sunbathe in one of the most beautiful surroundings on Curaçao. For the well trained swimmers, the reef can be reached from the beach, but it is quite a long swim. Snorkeling can be done much closer to the shore near the rocks on either side of Knip Beach.
Often you can buy local dishes, snacks and drinks. But keep in mind it is a possibility. So make sure to bring along enough drinks and snacks.
