How many stops can we fit?
Four is ideal. Five works if two are close together. More than that and you're seeing beaches from the boat, not on them.
Westpunt is where you'll find the kind of blue water people think is AI. On this trip we truly take the time to explore the coast: Cas Abou, Kenepa Grandi, Playa Forti and Playa Piskadó to swim with the turtles. Depending on the sea conditions, we'll also make a quick stop at the Blue Room, one of Curaçao's hidden treasures.

Good to know before you sail off.
How many stops can we fit?
Four is ideal. Five works if two are close together. More than that and you're seeing beaches from the boat, not on them.
Can we change the route on the day?
Yes. Nothing is locked; the captain adjusts on board if the swell favours another stop.
Is the Blue Room suitable for weak swimmers?
It's a short swim through a low entrance, best for confident swimmers. Vests and noodles are on board, the crew swims with you, and we skip it if the entrance is rough.
Are the turtles guaranteed at Playa Piskadó?
No, they're wild. But we see them on most trips.
I get seasick, is this trip easier?
Yes. It stays inshore on the sheltered side of the island, far calmer than the open-water crossing to Klein Curaçao.
What if the weather turns?
The captain decides that morning: reschedule or full refund. The west coast is usually the sheltered option.
What are the cancellation and deposit terms?
50% confirms your date and the balance is due 48 hours before departure. Free cancellation for any reason up to 7 days before your trip, with a full refund; less than 7 days before, no refund. If the captain cancels for weather you reschedule or take a full refund, never a voucher.
