www.jordanoutside.com/curacao I just got back from an an amazing trip to Curacao. Curacao is a small island in the Caribbean. These are my top 21 best beaches and snorkeling spots in Curacao. I’m going to start at the southernmost point and work my way up the west coast of Curacao to the northernmost point. The east coast of Curacao is mostly rocky so I’m not featuring any beaches on the east coast. I have also created a full video for each one of these beaches with more information including parking, fees, restaurants, amenities, etc...

@201corley Год назад

Thanks for the awesome footage, just made my mind up where to go on vacation this year. We’re the beaches crowded? Also, where did you stay on you way up the coast, at various AirB&Bs? One more was it safe to travel and hike thru the island?

@JordanOutside Год назад

Hey Gregory, thanks for the feedback. You're going to love it! There were a few beaches that were crowded, but the majority were not crowded at all. We stayed up on the Northwest side of the island at the Marazul Dive Resort. We booked it through VRBO.com. We had a rental car and went all over the island and did lots of hiking too. We never felt in danger. You should still take common precautions like not leaving anything in your car while your out, but overall it felt very safe. Here's a link to the video of where we stayed. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_ZQmryj7aXk.html

This is best snorkeling island video I have seen. What beaches would you recommend that has shortest swim for best snorkeling? My husband injured his wrist so we dont know how well he be able to swim so i think tugboat is out.

@JordanOutside 6 месяцев назад

Thanks for the kind words. I hope your husband's wrist heals up quickly. I would recommend Playa Lagun, Playa Piskado for the turtles, and Cas Abao Beach.

Fantastic video !!! Can you take your drone to Curacao without any restrictions?

@JordanOutside 2 месяца назад

I normally register my drone before going to a country, but I couldn't find anywhere to do this in Curacao. I even emailed them and never got a response. There were no restrictions when I went through the airport in Curacao. I had no problems flying my drone. If you see a sign for no drones, respect it, but otherwise it was fine. That was my experience a year ago when we went. Curacao was absolutely amazing!

@GailAiken 6 месяцев назад

What month was your trip? Were the water temperatures warm? What brand of snorkeling mask do you and your wife use? Thanks for the outstanding channel!

@JordanOutside 6 месяцев назад

We went in November and the water felt great. Our snorkeling masks are Oceanways SuperView-HD Mask - Black Silicone that you can buy on Amazon. Hope that helps 😃

@JordanOutside 10 месяцев назад

Thanks for the feedback. I would hit Cas Abao Beach, Playa Porto Mari, Daaibooi Beach, Kokomo Beach, and Mambo Beach in that order. Hope that helps!

@ms.kayak7seas Год назад

Hi Jordan. This is an awesome informative snorkeling tour. Are there any fees to pay? Tropical fish...but wow a sea snake? Love to try sea cave snorkeling. It mast be a little cool temp.What season is the best to avoid crowds to visit? Not hurricane season neither... Thank you so much for taking us to the underwater world.

@JordanOutside Год назад

Thanks, most of the snorkeling was free. If you go to Klein, you have to go by boat so there is a fee for that. Yes, it's best to avoid Hurricane season.

@krazykara1327 Год назад

@JordanOutside which is when if you know for sure?

@rogerwilco2 7 месяцев назад

October-November has the highest chance of bad weather due to hurricanes. But if those take a more northern path even those months can be fine. There will be more tourists in summer and during (Dutch) school holiday weeks, but the island is big enough.

@carado1984 5 месяцев назад

Actually the ABCs are one of if not the best islands to visit in the Caribbean during hurricane season as they lie outside of the hurricane belt. Even so, the chances are slim elsewhere and shouldn't deter your trip.

@rxwin3300 7 месяцев назад

Where is Bluebay! It was amazing there too

@JordanOutside 7 месяцев назад

@brendafry7936 6 месяцев назад

Hi Jordan, question for you. We are cruising in March. We would like to book a private trip to one of the snorkelling destinations. There are 4 of us but 3 don't snorkel. So looking for a location that has something for the 3 people to do while the other snorkels. Also if you could recommend a driver/guide.

@JordanOutside 6 месяцев назад

Hi Brenda, thanks for reaching out. While we were there we had our own rental car and drove everywhere ourselves, so I don't have a recommendation for a driver or guide. If 3 of you aren't going to snorkel, I would recommend Cas Abao Beach as it's a beautiful beach and has great snorkeling too. Have a great trip, you're going to love it.

@oet6544 Год назад

Wow, great video, i love snorkeling. Are those sea snakes? I don t know why but they scare me so much unlike anything in the world

@JordanOutside Год назад

Thanks! I thought they were sea snakes, but I learned that they are a type of eel. They just nibble on the algae and never tried coming after us.

Hi Jordan I have been reading from recent visitors to Curacao just a few weeks ago that there is a large stray dog problem in Curacao. Did you notice this in November? Did you notice any stray dogs at the Marazul Dive Resort? Thank you again.

@JordanOutside 4 месяца назад

Hi Gail, we didn't notice a stray dog problem. At least not at the beaches we went to. We stayed at the Marazul Dive Resort (which is gated) and didn't see any dogs there either. Hope that helps 😃

Great video, thank you. For snorkeling, just close to the shore? I mean you dont need a boat trip? Thx

Im assuming from all the drone footage that they are cool with droves there? Im going in April, is there any permits necessary or fly at will? What drone did you use?

I didn't have any issues. I emailed their drone authority, but never got a response back. I have my Part 107 US license, so I had that with me just in case. I fly a DJI Mavic 3.

If you only had one day which 2/3 beaches would you go to for the best snorkeling over all? We only have one day and it’s hard to pick! 😅

@JordanOutside Год назад

Hi Kathryn, that's a great question. For snorkeling I would go to Tugboat Beach and snorkel out to the shipwreck. I would also go to Cas Abao Beach for the beach and snorkeling. That would probably take the day, but would be totally worth it. Hope that helps 😃

@alissaossip3479 6 месяцев назад

@@JordanOutside Is the water shallow at these beaches or do you have to go into deep water in order to see the fish?

@JordanOutside 6 месяцев назад

@@alissaossip3479 That's a great question. Most areas areas that I got footage are around 10 feet deep. Obviously you can go deeper the farther you go out, but most of the reefs weren't that deep. Hope that helps.

@carado1984 5 месяцев назад

Jordan, you have to go back to Curacao or Exuma. I know they're completely different. You have one week. You're forced to pick. What's the answer?

@JordanOutside 5 месяцев назад

This is a tough question. If I had to choose for snorkeling definitely Curacao. If I had to choose for beaches, definitely Exuma. If I had to choose for a blend of both, I think Exuma just barely beats out Curacao. Hope that helps 😃

Hey Robert, We rented a Jeep from Airport Car Rental. We were there for 9 days and it came to $1,567. There is a grocery store in George Town that we went to each time we needed groceries. I would not recommend staying there without a car. There is so much to see and I didn't see a public transit system. Have a great time!
